  • Johnathan Loyd To Oregon

    Rivals reports the Shockers are interested in Johnathan Loyd, a 5-9 point guard, class of 2010 at Las Vegas, Nevada (Bishop Gorman Hi).

    In the Fall he had offers from Cal Poly, Cal Riverside and Northern Arizona. He just picked up an offer from SMU and now has serious interest from UCLA, Virginia and BYU. Arizona State, Charolotte and Santa Clara, like the Shockers, are showing recent interest.

    14.5 ppg, 7.8 assists and 3 steals a game.

    MaxPreps article on Loyd. Sounds like a stud.

    “The rebellion on the populist right against the results of the 2020 election was partly a cynical, knowing effort by political operators and their hype men in the media to steal an election or at least get rich trying. But it was also the tragic consequence of the informational malnourishment so badly afflicting the nation. ... Americans gorge themselves daily on empty informational calories, indulging their sugar fixes of self-affirming half-truths and even outright lies.'

        PJ Couisnard's father. I believe he is related to Elijah Johnson (KU) who played with Demetric Williams last year in high school.

              Elijah has a lot of upside. He's just playing behind some better talent this year. He'll get his chance next year.

                Loyd is Altman's first signee at Oregon.

                  Is Coach Altman taking CU's recruits?

                    UNLV, Northwestern and George Washington were in Loyd's top four. Loyd never really considered Creighton, even though he hit it off with Altman.

                    "I just didn't want to play in that conference,'' Loyd said of the Missouri Valley Conference.

                    Perfect for Dana, a kid who would rather play for losing teams than compete to win.

                      Just goes to show what the BcS and the media have done the past 20 or so years. Some kids see playing on crap BcS teams as better than playing on good teams in non-BcS conferences.

                        Pace

                        It depends on style of play, too, Sub. I don't think there's any doubt that the Valley's reputation for half-court, defense oriented games is a turnoff for some potential recruits.

                        Maybe Marshall's desire to play faster will help WSU with such guys; maybe Butler's success will cause some guys to rethink the desirability of playing a slower paced game so long as it's in a winning program. And maybe it doesn't really matter, as evidenced (again) by Butler, which probably would not have had much chance of getting a guy who wants to play fast but merely managed to get to the championship game with players who were willing to do it their way.

                          I think it had little to do with BCS vs non-BCS. Two of his other top four were non-BCS teams - UNLV and George Washington. To me that's a slam on the Valley compared to the MWC and Atlantic 10. Heck, GW wasn't even that good last year. I think he liked Altman enough that he'd play for him in a different conference, not just necessarily only a BCS school.

                              2010 JUCO Keithrick Denson has informed the BJC that he will be released from his LOI tomorrow to Creighton. Creighton is now at the limit of 13 for scholarships in 2010-11. Read and comment about it inside! [details]


                              The 13 scholarships include P' Allen's. This news has a few BJC posters dismayed. I did not see any speculation about where he is going.
