Peach Jam
Enjoying the Peach Jam this week. Lots of great talent on display here. Kids with bright futures. The brightest by far to me has been the play of a 2013 young man, Nerlens Noel, listed at 6-9 he's got to be closer to 7-0 and he played in the semis today like maybe he was 7-9. Really ruled the inside on defense. Not sure how many blocks he wound up with, but I counted 7 and missed part of the first half. He moves to his left and right easily on offense and has good foot work for his size. The only problem I could see is that he is very thin .... by next year this kid could easily be the number one player in this class ... unless the NBA changes the rule - I hope Cal put in him in a UK uniform ....
There were lots of UK fans here all week. My daughter got her picture taken with Calipari ... made her day :) ..

awesome about the picture!
I’ll bet your daughter is just over the moon about it. And what a thing for her to frame and to have. (I assume you will be buying a frame for it immediately and putting it up someplace?? : ))
I got my picture taken with the Wildcat while I was in Houston for the FF and I thought that was pretty neat, but this is way cooler.
BABC (Noel's Team) Won The Peach Jam
That’s a prestigious W in AAU circles.

We had a "fifty yard line" seat for that championship game ...
Noel’s stat line ….17points 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, and 6 blocked shots.
He’s a very “special” player … and by next year he should be even better if that’s possible.
