KABrother88 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 The Lamar Verbal Commits page shows an offer out to 2* 6'3" guard Gregg Kacprzak from Parkland, Florida. Shows he was offered on 9-12-13 under the old staff so I don't know if Price is honoring those offers or not. http://www.verbalcommits.com/players/gregg-kacprzak Lamar's Verbal Commit page http://www.verbalcommits.com/schools/lamar Quote
coachacola Posted July 1, 2014 Author Posted July 1, 2014 Wow, Coach Price not only got another 3 star recruit but he also got a guy from Port Arthur. That rarely happens. Quote

Big T Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 We have to wait and see if this talent is going to pan out on the court or not, but so far Tic Price has done a hell of a job on paper. I am beyond impressed by what he has been doing on the recruiting trail and the wonders he has been able to work in the local community by foraging bonds with the local HS and AAU coaches. That is something that Knight never bothered to do. Quote
baller Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 The inroads being made with local talent by Tic and his staff are impressive.Sometimes one local recruit can be the key to attracting others he is close too.Much like Dwayne Wade helped with James and Parsons helped with Howard.That is beginning to happen with some of the area talent and it should help us greatly in the eyes of future recruits who want to play with their AAU friends for the Cards .

sportsman Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 That is one of the biggest things to do when you are trying to build a program or trying to bringing it back to where it should be, is start bringing in the local talent, because the big boys can't get them all, and then fan out as the need arises, or if you have a contact with a kid!!!!! But Coach Price and his staff is doing it exactly the way they are suppose too!!!!!!! Go Lamar!!!!!!!!!!! sportsman Quote
bigred360 Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Lamar commit Dorian Chatman. Edited August 5, 2014 by bigred360 Quote
coachacola Posted August 6, 2014 Author Posted August 6, 2014 Saw on twitter that Tic Price is recruiting Chris Harris, 4 star ESPN player who committed to Texas A&M last year. Sounds like Harris is seriously considering Lamar. http://espn.go.com/college-sports/basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/178993/chris-harris Quote
coachacola Posted August 6, 2014 Author Posted August 6, 2014 Mamadu Kamara is a 6'10" center from Katy with offers from Creighton, Oklahoma and Texas A&M. Chris Harris is also a 6'10" 3-star center according to Yahoo! Sports. Top100Talent.com @Top100Talent 10h “Chris Harris and Mamadu Kamara loves Tic Price and Lamar University. They are number 1 right now.” - Coach J. Eurey pic.twitter.com/iJeRN8mm8G Jim Hicks @RcsSports 9h John Eurey just told me that (ex TAMU pledge) Chris Harris is seriously thinking of committing to head coach Tic Price (Lamar University)! http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/recruiting/player-Mamadou-Kamara-155268 https://rivals.yahoo.com/basketballrecruiting/basketball/recruiting/player-Chris-Harris-147232 Both guys did visit Lamar: http://pbs.twimg.com/media/BuUu8ovCMAAoW4w.jpg Quote
KABrother88 Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 I don't know what Tic is saying to these kids but he seems like a hell of a recruiter...I mean kids with major offers are strongly considering Lamar...only issue is we don't have many scholarships left Quote
coachacola Posted August 6, 2014 Author Posted August 6, 2014 I don't know what Tic is saying to these kids but he seems like a hell of a recruiter...I mean kids with major offers are strongly considering Lamar...only issue is we don't have many scholarships left With Tic Price getting these kids interested in LU makes Pat Knight's comments about not being able to recruit players to Lamar seem ridiculous. With 4 seniors on the team this upcoming season means Price can sign 3 more players if Chatman keeps his commitment to LU. Quote
KABrother88 Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 But Bosha should take one of those scholarships after his academic scholarship his freshman season correct?...then we would have 2 left...I really hope we can convince Wilridge to stay at home but it's a long shot. Quote
coachacola Posted August 6, 2014 Author Posted August 6, 2014 You're right about Bosha, he'll take one of those scholarships in 2015. With 3 big guys graduating next year it appears Price is concentrating on signing 3 more big guys to replace them. Price could potentially sign 3 inside players all with 3 or 4 stars, that would definitely be a monster signing class! Quote
KABrother88 Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 Would be nice if we could have another Bosha situation with this class and have one of them on an academic scholly for a year...there will be 6 JRs on this years team so well have a lot of available spots for the 2016 class. Quote

coachacola Posted August 20, 2014 Author Posted August 20, 2014 More on Nick Garth from the In The Cards blog: It’s worth mentioning that the Houston Hoops AAU connection is there, as Garth is teammates on the summer circuit with fellow 2015 Lamar pledge Dorian Chatman of PA Memorial. Local standouts E’Torrion Wildridge and Jordan Hunter are also on that team. http://blog.beaumontenterprise.com/inthecards/2014/08/19/2015-guard-commits-to-lamar/ Quote
