Sort of weird he got a 4* rating without a national ranking. What sort of school does he go to?

sometimes the prep or post grad kids aren’t included with the class.

He looks very skilled and could be a good player but he is not bouncy based off those videos.

I, for one, am glad we have such a robust NIL program in place that can quickly adapt to these types of situations and get them to sign with such enthusiasm.

Hoping more of a Reggie Evans than a Glen Worley.

Glen Worley was a great player in the five minutes he played each game before he fouled out.

He's 19, can't find much on how long he's been in the USA.

Looks like a typical Fran stretch 4. Maybe not quick or a great leaper, but hits his 3s and will get some rebounds. More Nunge than Cook, and that's ok.

This was in the Zagsblog article:
Dembele, 19, is originally from Mali but then moved to Spain when he was 13 to pursue a life in basketball. He came to the U.S. at 17.

Sounds like more great things coming from the TX basketball program.
I don't know about "more" great things (because has there ever been any in the past?), but the Horns kicked the shit out of Gonzaga. And getting two 5-stars (so far) in the next recruiting class bodes well.

I would've thought the football 5-star results would've soured you.

Moline is ranked #2 in Illinois behind Joliet West.

They'll have some good competition in the WB6 this year as well. Quincy is #8. Rocky is very "athletic" as usual and ranked #8 in 3A.

I could go for a Hungry Hobo right now. Routine post game stop for a young Gus and his old man. Went there when we didn’t have time for Pagliai’s.

BIL and his kids went to a Moline game and was thoroughly impressed with them both, even as an Illinois fan.

Moline won at #8 (3A) Rocky 78-40. Freeman had 23 and 14. Harding scored 18.

They both sat out the entire 4th quarter

Average margin of victory in conference is 52.7.

They play Rockridge on Tuesday. Unless Ethan Happ is playing, they might win by 100.

Rockridge is actually ranked #7 in 2A.

Should still win by 50 or so

They might end up as the best team ever out of the QC.
Well Rocky had that state champion team in 2011 with Chasson Randle.

UT had a team back in 1970 that beat the #1 team in Missouri then the #1 team in Illinois in back to back nights. Finished 2nd.

This Moline team could be in that neighborhood
