Great things happening in Crown Heights Brooklyn! ⁦@DreamChasersBB⁩ ⁦@BoroughCup⁩ ⁦@NYCParks⁩ Thank you!! ⁦@News12BK⁩ ⁦@DanSerafin⁩

@ExpoHoops Where do the high school kids go then?

There are currently 2,000+ basketball players stuck in the transfer portal. Many Division I coaches have already said they’re done recruiting high school athletes. Insane.

@KySportsRadio What’s does ‘want to be at Kentucky’ actually mean? I Bleed blue, but in this new era, we better wake up.

I want to win. Agents’ job is to get players money. Our job is to get players to win A good negotiator puts those two different goals into mutual success

@BrentScher The experience at LaGuardia was very good today. I think it’s gonna be hard to remove ice. With the quality work they’re doing.

ICE is operating the entire TSA pre-check operation in LaGuardia. Checking boarding passes, helping people load bags onto the scanner. TSA agents on metal detectors and screens. Massive line that stretches to the street, made it through in less than 30 minutes. ICE rocks.

@Williams_Justin @TheAthletic Does the LLC require any academic requirements or have any graduation metrics to define success? 😳😱

A $22 mil MBB NIL budget. A massive FB coaching buyout. A $141 mil loan. An athletic department that is now an LLC. What's going on at Kentucky? Short answer: It wants to be a top spender in college sports. Longer answer is free to read via @TheAthletic. nytimes.com/athletic/71451…

@KySportsRadio The governor has spoken

UK top sports booster calls out Barnhart contract in strong terms

@SCNext @nypost 💯 and so is Private Equity.

Rick Pitino shared his thoughts on the biggest detriment to American basketball players’ development 👀 (via @nypost)

@KobeissiLetter Mr President. Pls do the same for PE taking over youth sports. @BluebookBeede

Trump is going after the US housing market: President Trump just announced he is BANNING single-family home purchases by institutional investors. Within minutes, Blackstone's stock erased as much as -$17 BILLION today. What happens next? Let us explain. (a thread)

@NILnotNLI NIL paying his alimony is all you need to know. 🤡 show. 😂

Coach Calipari says what we’re all thinking: The once-beautiful sport of NCAA College Basketball is in a state of pure absurdity—all thanks to a few certain self-serving lawyers claiming their clients would be "harmed" without a 9th year of eligibility...

@BaseballAmerica Is this a good thing? not sure the schools or MLB or private equity or the players can all win under this scenario.

College baseball has become an increasingly central development engine for the professional game. 27 players made their major league debuts within two years of their draft season in 2025. Could this increase after the next CBA? buff.ly/HdTX1Bq

@BluebookBeede @bsblbluebook @Pitchsafe_co On the surface , that would be a positive for current ‘college ready’ HS players maybe?

In 2025 , only 39% of Portal athletes found new homes . Think about that number . The Portal is not a guarantee. Finding the right fit MATTERS ! @bsblbluebook @Pitchsafe_co

@BluebookBeede The turtle wins this race.

Lots of DECOMMITTING is about to happen.... LOTS

@CoachKellogg Awesome!

Let’s gooooo Max!!!! Keep working!

@anthony_giano @A_Smithwick @CAcatsAthletics @BluebookBeede Thank you Coach Giano! Mom and Dad are very appreciative. Our son is in great hands. Tremendous thanks to @BluebookBeede for a bottom of the 9 grand slam walk off. And many helped along the way. @CoachDCorona @CresseySP

Excited to bring ⁦@A_Smithwick⁩ to ⁦@CAcatsAthletics⁩ this season. Can’t wait to get working!!!!Let’s go!!! Thanks ⁦⁦@BluebookBeede⁩

@Jshev21 There will be a players union soon enough. Maybe this will be sorted during collective bargaining. 😂

@BluebookBeede Just wait until private equity gets a hold of college baseball. You’ve not seen nothing yet.

I believe professional baseball treats players, especially pitchers, as disposable products, like paper towels—used as needed and discarded when no longer serviceable. Max effort, Max Velo, when they blow out, bring up the next guy! Gone are the days of veterans having clubhouse value @MLB @bsblbluebook

@BluebookBeede @bsblbluebook Is 20,000 over or under the current portal count? 😳

Thank you 🙏 to all those that have taken the time to subscribe as well as help grow The YouTube channel/community! I am honored and tremendously grateful 🙏@bsblbluebook

@BluebookBeede @bsblbluebook It would be great information if someone was able to do a blind survey on why players enter into the transfer portal to begin with. Money, playing time, better academics, etc.. this will be valuable information for future kids thinking of doing the same.

Going to be A LOT of unhappy D1 portal athletes and families by end of July !! The D1 to D1 gig not going to be happening for MAJORITY of athletes! Wow , some folks got sold a false sense of security! Yikes 😬 @bsblbluebook

@CresseySP @EricCressey @ALysyStrength @IanConnorsCSP @YKahook @kolbyrich @kedwards0012 After four years and counting. Highly recommended!

@KendallRogers When the portal closes. Does that mean the kids can no longer enter the portal and if they’re in the portal, they can no longer go to any teams?

With the portal closing tonight at 11:59 PM, here are some of my top uncommitted Transfer Portal players. HITTERS: Tanner Thatch, UNCW (draft risk) Henry Godbout, UVA Wyatt Peifer, JMU Ethan Conrad (draft risk) Will Gasparino, Texas Chris Arroyo, UVA Zach Yorke, GCU d1baseball.com/transfers/2025…

@HPBAac So now high school kids need to skip classes in September and October? Academics is quickly becoming an afterthought.

The D1 Transfer Portal closes on Tuesday (July 1st). July, September and October are now the most productive months of the year for high school baseball players to get in front of D1 schools. Take advantage of it! Go ball out!
