@dekker update: Sam is shooting 45.4% (54/119) from 3pt in the Turkish Super League, and 42% overall against all European competition for @TurkTelekom_SK 👀🎯 He’s most definitely a candidate for making his way back on an NBA Roster next year.

After a great conversation with Coach Simmons I am blessed to receive a division 1 offer from Eastern Illinois!! @bentonboyshoops @MokanBasketball @PrepHoopsMO

Blessed💙

Here’s former Chaminade College Prep standout Luke Kasubke. He is a Graduate Assistant at Michigan. He was a heck of a player

Blessed and honored to receive the LionHeart award from my teammates and Coaches. This award reflects the work of so many, but most of all God. I will carry this experience with me forever and always be a lion! @LinkHoops

🗣 Coach of the YEAR!!!!

Brandon is a GREAT hire by Turgeon. I've literally watched him grow up from kid to player to great coach and dedicated family man. He is connected, he's a proven winner and you don't get more Kansas City than Brandon. W hire for the Roos and a guy the city will get behind.

FULL SEASON HIGHLIGHTS (C/O 2027) 6’6 Gaurd AVG: 14 PPG 7 RPG 5 APG 2 SPG 1 BPG * led team in every stat * 7 Double Doubles * 1 Triple Double @Snipershouse @MokanBasketball @RonnieMack12 @GPer23

Congratulations to senior Gavin Popik for being selected FIRST team all league. Gavin averaged 23 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists a game and surpassed the 1,000 career points mark in the middle of the season. Gavin will be playing at Missouri S&T next year. 💙🏀🖤

What a way to close out the season with my family! We played some really great teams. Grateful for the opportunity and proud to finish as #StateChampions 🏆💍@vicwilli Here’s my state tournament stats: Vs Derby: 20p 11r 3b
Vs Mill Valley: 25p 17r 6b 4a
Vs SM South: 12p 11r 6b

Congratulations to freshman Mason Suther for being recognized in the toughest league in the state. Mason was our starting point guard as a freshman, ran the offense like a veteran, and was one of our best on ball defenders. 💙🏀🖤

@kelangruver45 stats before the state tournament. Coaches say they recruit players who win championships. We'll here you go. His stats are as good as you will see at the high school level. I am sure they went up after 32 in semi final and 21 in the Championship game.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR GUYS THAT MADE THE SUBURBAN GOLD ALL CONFERENCE LIST ‼️ Blayne Marshall - 1st Team Chris Ellis - 2nd Team Maksim Hymiller - Honorable Mention AC Rollins - Honorable Mention two

Michael… I’m not sure we have not had the chance to meet yet, but your boss reached out to me back in October, and I personally extended an invitation for him and his entire staff, including you, to stop by HCU for any of our practices or games. I would love the opportunity to host you on campus so we can chat about how NIL and revenue sharing works at the college level. Schools in the Southland Conference vary widely in what they can allocate, ranging from $0 to well over a million annually for their rosters, depending on resources and priorities. You are right that McNeese has done an excellent job loading up with high caliber Houston area talent. Those five players you mentioned came in from strong programs (Oklahoma, Providence/Seton Hall, LSU/K State/SMU, Tulsa, and UTSA), and each player has quality representation that commands significant market value. In the Houston market, none of the five NCAA D1 programs (PV, HCU, TSU, Rice, UH) can compete financially with McNeese unless their mascot is a Cougar. That said, if you had joined us at an HCU practice I would have introduced you to Houston area standout Demari Williams. He starred at Fulshear HS, spent time at Arizona State and Oral Roberts, and has really blossomed here at HCU, jumping from 2.2 PPG at ORU to 9.7 PPG this season (.469 FG%, .309 3PT%, .794 FT%) with 3.2 RPG, while being our best on-ball defender. Demari is a prime example of the growth and opportunity that HCU can provide. Additionally, we have had several other Houston area players in our program recently, including one from your school. You are surely familiar with this. Despite the challenges of the NIL era and having one of the toughest jobs in college basketball, we have positioned ourselves as one of only five Southland Conference programs to earn bids to the conference tournament in both the 2025 and 2026 seasons. We are proud of that progress, and we are far from finished. Our focus remains on recruiting talented, attainable transfers, both locally and beyond, who want real competition in a rising Southland Conference and are physically ready to handle the league’s demanding style. You have an open invitation to hang out with us in our men’s basketball offices at HCU. We would love to share more about our vision, strengths, and challenges as well as hear your thoughts on the Houston area landscape. Feel free to swing by campus anytime in the coming weeks. Send me a DM and we will get things squared away. Congratulations on another outstanding high school season. HC HS has been truly dominant. Impressive work! Looking forward to connecting. God bless!

Thank you @RL_HoopsKS ! @stasaints_BBB @GPer23
