Quote from: NEPAFAN on June 26, 2026, 05:57:13 PM6 coming in, not including 3 impact transfers, right?

 I'm thinking of a 6-8 from Long Island, a guard from northern NJ, and a forward from Parkland(PA) HS. Can't remember the others nor any xfers. Tim the Enchanter usually has an up-to-date list. Check with him.

There are transfers coming in?

I crawled out from under a rock

Tongue in cheek on my part. Sorry to get your hopes up!

6 coming in, not including 3 impact transfers, right?

Happy Belated Father's Day to all the Dads!!!!
