In other interesting recruiting news: Bruce Branch III, the No. 2-ranked prospect in the 2027 class, announced Saturday that he plans to reclassify into the 2026 class. Branch will graduate from Prolific Prep (Florida) in the spring and be able to play college basketball next fall. "I believe in my ability. I am confident that I can do this," Branch told ESPN. "I have been playing up my whole life. I am not going to let anyone outwork me. I remember when I was in the first grade playing against third graders. I got pushed down, and I got back up." He hasn't taken any official visits and has yet to truly dive into his recruitment, but the likes of Kentucky, Kansas, Louisville, USC, BYU, Arizona, Houston and Miami are all in pursuit. A springtime decision is the expectation. ...more at the link https://www.espn.com/mens-college-b...anch-iii-no-2-hoops-prospect-reclassifying-26
I wonder if he's one of the "couple" of kids Sampson said they're going after in the 2027 class and had their "hooks into them pretty good". If so, hopefully the timeline change doesn't affect anything. lol.
Sakho is a big liability. Zero offensive ability and the defense and rebounding aren’t good enough to make up for that giant hole in his game. Let’s hope they develop him as the season goes on…
i told yall Ja'vier Francis was a much bigger loss than expected. He had that defensive scheme down and was like 70% ft shooter by his senior year. I miss him.
The freshmen are freshmen. They will be up and down. The "core" has to be better. UH is going to get every opponent's BEST game.
