- Cool new SC football related website with a very nice intro:
H/T to TrojanWire.com.
- Very nice write-up on the Pangos Camp held at the Galen Center Pavilion over the weekend:
Demar DeRozan, 6'6", 2008, Compton (Compton, CA)
While Jennings was the MVP of the entire camp, DeRozan stole the spotlight (as well as MOP honors) in the top cream of the crop game – scoring a game high 30 points (15/20 from the field). DeRozan (whose 24.4 ppg here was second only to Jennings) is quickly gaining the reputation of a Top 10 national prospect and very possible 2008 McDonald’s All-American Game selection. As national scouts who have seen him lately are quickly realizing, DeMar is much more than an ESPN Sports Center Top 10 highlight. DeRozan is a player with a dangerous perimeter jump shot, has a smooth feel for the game and is an underrated passer.
Malik Story, 6'5", 2008, Artesia (Lakewood, CA)
After a somewhat lack-luster spring, Story (USC verbal) showed that he deserves to be considered as a legitimate Top 100 national recruit as his jump shot arrived often with pin-point accuracy here. Story (who is reportedly headed to Oak Hill for his senior season this fall) was one of the camp’s top scorers (16.6 ppg) which included a 29 point outburst on Saturday.
Demar is making huge strides in becoming a legit top 15 player. We have a real star in the making...
- Pretty tough year for former SC basketball player, Kevin Galloway:
Guard Kevin Galloway of Sacramento, Cal., who had transfered from Southern California to Fresno State, did not meet academic standards during his enrollment at Fresno and is now expected to attend junior college.
And to think, he was one of the more impressive freshman going into last season.
