We better hurry and snag this kid quick. Everybody is coming for him. I think it's past that. Better hope that being first counts for something. For some kids, it's really important.

Any chance we can get this kid on campus for either the SH or Provy game?

Pinson went for 15 pts, 7 stls and 4 assists tonight per tweets. I’d post them but I don’t know how.

Initially I thought the staff might have found a gem of a player who was flying under the radar, but the more you hear about this kid the more it becomes obvious he is going to get a lot of attention from other major programs. Hope we can find a way to close the deal on this kid. He plays a position the team really needs to fill and seem to be a developing star.

Just copy the link of the tweet (from browser url or from dropdown menu on top right of actual tweet - "copy link to tweet"). When you paste and then send that link in your message on this board, it auto displays tweet in the native (i.e. Twitter) format. Not in edit mode... Just when you actually post the full msg.

It's kind of hard to fly completely under the radar because offers are publicized via social media. Pinson gets a couple of HM offers and lots of coaches need to take a look. We just have to win a competition.

Recruiting feels like judging on The Voice. When one judge hits their red button, the others tend to jump in. Especially, later in the game.

Eh, I wouldn't say he's blowing up. A lot of offers are copycat offers. Programs see one program offer, don't know much about a kid and offer so they are in the mix and buy themselves time to evaluate. Certain schools are good at identifying talent early on, and programs use their evaluation just as much as their own.They don't have the luxury to wait like they can with rising Sophs and Juniors who they can evaluate in AAU. Doesn't mean all of those schools are in pursuit.
I'm always wary of spring signees. The caliber of schools recruiting kids tend to be above the talent level because of desperate roster needs.
This has nothing to do with Pinson. I just wouldn't use an offer list or schools in pursuit as a true measure of a player's ability for spring signees.

I like the value Simeon point guard Xavier Pinson brings to the table for Simeon and as an available prospect. His speed and control are top of the charts. Pinson made so many big plays against Memphis East before fouling out. His presence was a calming one for Simeon when he was on the floor. Pinson is great in speed and purposeful in his play. He’s one of the best available point guards I’ve seen this high school season. www.hoopseen.com/news/event/201801/ars-rescue-rooter-penny-hardaway-national-hoopfest-saturday

Apparently Missouri attended his game earlier this week and, based on Twitter, Pinson seems to be enjoying the love he is getting from Mizzou fans. Plays tonight vs. a top class of 2019 PG on Chicago Curie.
