Beauchamp article

[SaveFerris]

Beauchamp's at Yakima Valley CC working to qualify for next year (also high school online classes). Yakima Valley has a 16 game schedule this spring. Apparently Beauchamp got COVID and lost about 10 pounds. Says he's hearing the most from UW, WSU, and Arkansas. I really like him as a player but UW needs him a lot more than we do. If he's able to qualify I would bet he lands in Seattle but who knows at this point. Seems to have a lot of work to do to play anywhere by next fall.

Marjon is a friend of Noah. He might go somewhere else then WSU, BUT he is not going to TOUCH THE ABSOLUTE SHAMBLES, MESS, 5 WIN, 9 PLAYERS IN THE TRANSFER PORTAL SET TO LEAVE, UW.

Out of the 3 of UW, Arkansas, WSU, WSU should have the slight edge, be the favorite to get him.

Noah will continue to hound, nag him to join him at WSU. At Yakima CC, a program, CC conference not well known, or that good, he will likely slip under the radar of the Duke's, North Carolina, Kentucky, Kansas, etc, or at least there is hope for that.

Also some schools may think he is a grades risk, and not be willing to get him. At least there is hope for that.

As to room, fit, When, if, Marjon would goto WSU, it would be next season, after this coming season(When after his Yakima CC season, academic year is over.)

By that time, Flowers would be gone, and at least 1,2 out of the 6,7 at the 3 spot would be gone, and there would be room, need, upgradement, improvement for him Marjon to goto WSU to START at the 3 spot.

Also you dont turn away a player like a Marjon, unless you have 1+ Marjons in front of him, because make no mistake Marjon is a 4.5 star Top 25 player in entire Nation, Future NBA player, that got told by NBA that he isnt ready YET.

Also Marjon, would help Noah, CJ Elleby, Smith, Shaw, to turn Seattle, Portland, Westside, etc, into a WSU Semi Pipeline.

Also Marjon would almost practically Guarantee that WSU combined with what WSU has, with Smith's coaching would become, be a Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final 4, Final 2, NCAA Tourny, 26 Win + team.

And if Marjon did that at WSU, it would make it easier for 3.5 stars, 4 stars, 4.5 stars to goto WSU in the future.

This is great news. There is now about a 43% to 53% to 63% chance, and a very slight edge, favorite to get Marjon based on the VERY LONG, GOOD relationship WSU coaches, players, NOAH, has with Marjon, the state of, direction of WSU's bball program, etc, over the MESS that is UW, and Arkansas being 1500 miles away.

If I am Noah, Smith, Shaw, I goto as many of his, Marjon's games at Yakima CC, as possible, and schedule a NONCON WSU bball game in Yakima, and invite Marjon to sit frontcourt seat, either with, by team. Hold a Bball camp at Yakima CC, for Middle School, Jr High, HS kids, and invite Marjon and the rest of the Yakima CC team to help participate, help teach the kids.

Basically WSU, Smith, Shaw, Phelps, Noah, CJ Elleby, Klay, etc, need to go ALL IN to try to get Marjon.

If WSU does that, I think WSU gets Marjon.

And I think WSU going after, and getting Marjon would be a good thing.

And even if WSU tries HARD to get Marjon, and doesnt get Marjon, I think its a Calculated Risk worth taking.

 

[SaveFerris]

Where we are as a program plus Noah/Shaw would seem to give us a shot but the UW has Brown, Matthews, and Conroy. They aren't in great shape on paper but they have minutes to offer. We also are obviously 1 over at the moment as well.

I like Beauchamp's game. He's definitely talented but IMO unless someone is leaving not a need at this point.

What your saying about need, would be true, valid, if Marjon was, woukd be joining WSU THIS SEASON.

But he wont be transfering THIS SEASON. He will be transfering THE SEASON AFTER THIS COMING SEASON.

He is gona play 1 FULL season at Yakima CC, this coming season at Yakima CC. He wont be anywhere, Not WSU, Not UW, Not Arkansas, this coming season. He will be at Yakima CC, this coming season.

And his Academic Year at Yakima CC, wont end until AFTER this coming season.

At THAT POINT, FLOWERS WILL BE GONE. 1,2 OF THE PLAYERS AT THE 3 SPOT WILL BE GONE, AND NOAH MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT ENTER THE NBA DRAFT AFTER HIS JUNIOR YEAR.

SO THERE WOULD BE A SPOT, SCHOLLY FOR HIM, MARJON ON THE ROSTER, FOR THE YEAR AFTER THIS COMING SEASON.

ALSO MARJON IS BETTER THEN:

DJ Rodman, Kim Aiken, Rosario, Bamba, Rapp, Koulibaly, basically EVERYBODY at the 2,3 spots, except Noah, that he is either slightly, barely better, then Noah, or tied with, Noah, or slightly, barely behind Noah.

And thats for just the year after this coming year, season.

If Marjon stays with the WSU Cougs, for 3,4 years, then more players will graduate, transfer, etc, in those 3,4 years, causing a need, that Marjon will fill.

You dont just look at this coming season, or the season after this coming season, you look at the next 2,3,4,5 seasons.

And WSU has Klay(Golden State), Elleby(Portland Trail Blazers), to UW's Brown, Conroy, Mathews.

UW is a MESS, for at least 1,2,3,4 years. Marjon wont touch that mess.

Marjon would goto Arkansas, heck even NORTH POLE U, over UW, if he does not goto WSU.

And not just Marjon. Marjon's Father, a very logical, business like, HELICOPTER DAD, would advise his son Marjon to NOT TOUCH THE SHAMBLES, GARBAGE, MESS that is UW.

Beauchamp is trying to become eligible for the fall. Plans to announce in June.

 

[mikalalas]

Beauchamp is trying to become eligible for the fall. Plans to announce in June.

Still think you have to look at the next 2,3,4 years, instead of only the next season.

WSU is at either 0, -1 schollies to give.

If at 0 schollies to give, then you encourage Rapp to Transfer to make room for Marjon.

If your at -1 schollies to give, then you encourage Rapp, AND either 1 of:

1. Rosario

2. Bamba

3. Rodman

To transfer, make room for Marjon, as Marjon is THAT GOOD, and because while there wouldnt be as much of a need THIS COMING SEASON, there will be a Need the season after this coming season, as Marjon wont enter the NBA Draft until after either after his Sophmore year, or Junior Year, which is 1,2 years, after this coming season. And with Marjon the starter at the 3 spot, and a line up of 1. Flowers, 2. Noah, 3. Marjon, 4. Efe, 5. Dischon Jackson, with a deep bench, then WSU would be a Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final 4, NCAA Tourny team, with 25,26,27,28 wins.

 

[mikalalas]

Also whether you like it or Not, WSU, Noah, Smith, Shaw, is still trying to get Marjon.

 

[Brent H.]

I think he ends up at Arkansas.

 

[mikalalas]

I think he ends up at Arkansas.

No way. Extremely Unlikely.

According to Marjon article, Marjon said he prefers to stay IN STATE.

Oregon is also interested in him. Marjon will probably goto WSU or Oregon, over UW, Arkansas.

Arkansas is ABOUT 1500 MILES AWAY.

Only way Marjon would goto the SEC is IF KENTUCKY offered him, and even then, maybe not then.

Earlier, Marjon decided to turn down ALL OFFERS, and went to San Fran, to TRAIN, get ready for the 2021 NBA DRAFT.

The ONLY REASONS why he Marjon is not still there to do that, is because:

1. Covid.

2. Because of Covid, he wanted to be closer to home.

3. The NBA probably told him, he isnt ready yet.

That's part of the reason why Marjon is playing for Yakima Valley Community College.

The other part is that he trying to get ready to transfer to a D1, P5, College.

So IF DISTANCE wasnt a concern, Marjon would, might still be in San Fran, about 1000 miles away from home.

And why would Marjon leave San Fran about 1000 miles away from home, because he wanted to go back home, and stay IN STATE, because of Covid, only to go about 1750 miles to Arkansas.

If it was KENTUCKY, then maybe he would be tempted, and goto Kentucky. Arkansas: No, especially after 1 player has transfered from Arkansas to WSU, which might be because of problems in Arkansas.

No its either WSU OR OREGON OR BACK TO SAN FRAN TO PREPARE FOR NBA DRAFT OVER UW, Arkansas.

Really, you and others need to STOP thinking that Recruits will choose UW, Arkansas, everyone but Poor Ole Little Ole WSU.

Smith has changed that culture. And WSU, Smith has BEATEN, OUTRECRUITED DUKE TYPES FOR SEMI TOP, 4 STAR, HIGHLY RATED RECRUIT(S).

There just is too many logical reasons why Marjon would probably goto WSU, like RELATIONSHIP with WSU coaches, FRIENDSHIP with NOAH, NOAH, HOUNDING, NAGGING Marjon to join him at WSU, and Marjon wanting to stay in state, and the MESS, SHAMBLES UW is in, and Arkansa being about 1750 miles away, ETC.

If he is going to decide in June that leaves a small window considering players have to be notified by July 1 if their scholarship is not being renewed for the following year. If he is enrolled for summer school at YVCC and needs those classes/ grades to qualify for D-1 ball he wouldn’t know his grades till August. I can’t see him playing next year anywhere on scholarship but if he qualifies he could walk- on. I doubt coach would drop a player for the possibility of a player maybe qualifying or at least I hope he wouldn’t. This whole thing has a very “greasy” feeling . I say pass and play with what we’ve got!

 

[7ICoug]

Question is if Rice is actually signed? Nothing ever on the official site. Marjon can easily walk-on and play with Noah and that is the best deal in any case.

I think, am pretty sure that Marjon is, was enrolled for either Winter, Spring, but think its Spring Quarter, because the Yakima Valley Community College 16 game season started during that time.

Marjon has already played 2,3 games for Yakima Valley CC, and scored 31 points, 13 rebounds, 4,5 assist, 4 steals, 2,3,4 blocks, in 1 of those games.

Marjon said that he and the coaches checked with the NCAA, and with various D1 Colleges, and the NCAA, and various D1, P5 colleges told him that he could transfer after the 16 game schedule was over, so I dont think he is or gona be in Summer college, and dont think it would take to August for him to get word is he is eligible or would qualify, as the NCAA, and WSU, Oregon, UW, Arkansas wouldnt have all told him he was good to go if he did good enough while he was at Yakima CC(Likely Winter or Spring Quarter).

I dont see Marjon walking on, as he would just enter the NBA Draft instead.

And I dont think he will be a Walk On.

But your right that if he was a Walk On, I dont think Smith would run a player so that he could then put Marjon on scholly later.

But if Marjon does qualify, is Academically Eligible in time(And I think he will, would, could, should, be, etc), I do think that Smith would encourage Rapp or Rosario, etc, to Transfer, to make room for Marjon, in that situation.

In any case, it doesnt matter what you or I think, because Smith, WSU is going after Marjon, and WSU, Smith, Noah, is who he Marjon has heard the most from.

And I AGREE with WSU, Smith, that its worth going after Marjon, and join THEIR DISAGREEMENT with you, what you are saying in saying that its not worth going after Marjon.

Also its not GREASY at all, otherwise the NCAA clearinghouse, academic, REPRESENTATIVE, wouldnt OK Marjon Transfering, provided he does well enough Academically, at Yakima CC, to be Academically Eligible, Qualify, to goto D1, P5, WSU, Oregon, etc.

PS: Almost all of this info is either directly or indirectly in the Marjon article, or can be logically inferred, extrapolated, read between the lines, etc.

So can read the Marjon Article linked above or google search for it.

Also I wouldnt mind if Smith encouraged Rapp to transfer for the possibility of Marjon Qualifying, and walking on as a preferred walk on, IF Smith is hardcore ABSOLUTLY sure that Marjon is, was 1000%, ABSOLUTLY commited, and was PROBABLE to Qualify(By talking to Marjon's YVCC teachers, fellow students, family, Dean, etc), transfer, walk on, and get Rapp's scholly later after Marjon Walked On.

Anybody else no. But Rapp yes, because Rapp is only better then the 6ft 9 in Walk On, and MAYBE better then Rosario(For Now(By the time Rosario is a Senior, he is gona be A LOT better then Rapp ever will, would, could be), and maybe better then Rice.

First off players commit all the time and don’t get thru the clearing house. WSU has had multiple players in the last 10 years. Second I’m not even sure his grades at JC matter all that much. He was
A non qualifier out of high school and there are rumors he ever graduated from high school. As a non qualifier he would
have to leave YVCC with his AA in order
To play D-1 and that’s not going to happen. The article said he was still taking high school classes online. Those I think would be the most important grades/ classes. Of course there are many rule changes and exemptions do to COVID so who knows. Smith is doing his job and keeping lines of communication open with lots of players. You really don’t have much choice these days as you could wake up tomorrow and anybody on your team could enter
The portal. We always assume players leave because we don’t want them but it’s not one sided. Look at Kunc he left and ended up in a program that has arguably been one of the best in the last decade.

Ok I thought it was the article that said that the NCAA Representative said he Marjon was good to go, if his grades were good enough, etc.

Maybe that was from a linked source, linked to the article, maybe that was me google searching.

But I know for a fact, that I read somewhere that Marjon and his San Fran Trainer, friends, family, coaches, etc, ASKED the NCAA if he could transfer goto a D1, P5 college, after his quarter, 16 games at YVCC were over, and that the NCAA contacted him, told him that he could do that, if his grades were good enough at YVCC, during the time he was, is there.

I'm not making that up. I know I read that somewhere from a CREDIBLE SOURCE.

I know that Marjon was, is taking online HS classes, probably to either graduate, or get a GED, graduation equivalent, or if already graduated from HS, to get his HS grades up good enough to qualify.

I am pretty sure the NCAA Representative told Marjon that he BOTH had to BOTH do well in his ONLINE HS Classes, AND his YVCC Classes BOTH to be able to Transfer, goto a D1, P5 college, after his quarter, 16 game season was over.

Also I am pretty sure I read somewhere that Marjon said that IF the NCAA hadnt told him that he could transfer to a D1, P5, like a WSU, after the Quarter, season ended at YVCC, that he would have then not gone to YVCC, and would have instead stayed in San Fran, Trained, and then entered the 2021 NBA DRAFT, instead of going back home, and going to YVCC.

Marjon made sure all his ducks, everything was set up, cleared, clarified(By the NCAA),etc, BEFORE he played at YVCC.

Of course this is only according to what Marjon, his family, friends, coaches, trainers, handlers, etc, have said, so technically, theoretically that could be wrong.

Or maybe like you said, is a New Covid based rule, etc.

I do know colleges, and the NCAA has made it a LOT EASIER to get into, qualify for D1, P5 colleges like WSU, because of Covid, so maybe thats why Marjon would be good to go if he does good at his online HS classes, and at YVCC during his quarter.

WSU, Smith, Noah, Shaw, are doing more then just keeping lines, communication open. They are trying to get Marjon to commit, and be able to goto WSU

And they are doing that because Marjon is worth it.

 

[FnuLnu]

If I am Noah, Smith, Shaw, I goto as many of his, Marjon's games at Yakima CC, as possible, and schedule a NONCON WSU bball game in Yakima, and invite Marjon to sit frontcourt seat, either with, by team. Hold a Bball camp at Yakima CC, for Middle School, Jr High, HS kids, and invite Marjon and the rest of the Yakima CC team to help participate, help teach the kids.

Basically WSU, Smith, Shaw, Phelps, Noah, CJ Elleby, Klay, etc, need to go ALL IN to try to get Marjon.

If WSU does that, I think WSU gets Marjon.

And I think WSU going after, and getting Marjon would be a good thing.

And even if WSU tries HARD to get Marjon, and doesnt get Marjon, I think its a Calculated Risk worth taking.

Let's hope WSU can get Gonzaga to play them at Eisenhower HS or the SunDome in order to land Marjon.

After that why not put Marjon's dad on the Board of Reagents?

Buy him a dispensary?

Ask YakiCoug (RIP?) to intervene?

Actually putting Marjon's Dad who was the LITERAL FORMER MAYOR of Yakima on the Board of Regents wouldnt be that bad, since Regents on Board of Regents are usually POLITICIANS, CORPORATE CEO'S, ETC.

No to Gonzaga. Idaho, EWU, Seattle U(Not UW), Montana, St Mary's, San Diego, Pepperdine, Fresno St, Long Beach St, Cal Poly, UC Davis, Airforce, etc, at the YVCC Gym, as a Non Con exhibition game

 

[Coug4life34]

Champ will not be attending WSU

 

[mikalalas]

Champ will not be attending WSU

And why is that? Has he committed somewhere else? If so, where is he committed to? Is he going back to train for NBA Draft? Is he not Academically Eligible?

You know if your going to say, state something like Champ or some other player is not going to play for WSU, you really should say WHY?

Otherwise its either just your word, or at least no reason to back up what your saying.

 

[FnuLnu]

It was his grandfather who was mayor of Yakima and that was in late 1980s. Since he is now dead, can't put him on the Board of Reagents.

WSU and Seattle Mariners player Dave Edler was mayor of Yakima more recently and is still living.

 

[FnuLnu]

No to Gonzaga. Idaho, EWU, Seattle U(Not UW), Montana, St Mary's, San Diego, Pepperdine, Fresno St, Long Beach St, Cal Poly, UC Davis, Airforce, etc, at the YVCC Gym, as a Non Con exhibition game

The YYCC Gym aka Sherar Gym holds 1,500.

If WSU can get New Mexico State to play there, Marjon will get a great idea what is like to play for WSU at Spokane Arena which drew much less than 1,500 for Smith's only Spokane "home" game.

 

[Coug4life34]

And why is that? Has he committed somewhere else? If so, where is he committed to? Is he going back to train for NBA Draft? Is he not Academically Eligible?

Because I told you so.. He simply has bigger plans then WSU if he qualifies.. Please stop acting like you know everything and have some insider information or special ability to read what the rest of us can not clearly see.. WSU is simply not in his cards. Initially, I thought maybe, but I have talked to a few people who are in tune and WSU is a last resort.I would never say never, but it is not what he is thinking right now. Keep in mind his goal is to get drafted and regardless to how you feel WSU is not the best spot to make that happen.. They have always been about the attention and headline grabber.. He didn’t even Finnish HS which is why he is where he is now..If the possibility exists for him to go to a bigger school, he will.. We are barely top 10..

 

[jourdand]

But, but , but he has had thousands of Zoom meetings.....he ,he is best friends with Noah! .....he has, has, has a great relationship with coach Smith who he’s never met.... there is a 55 to 65 to 85 percent chance he is coming to WSU.... the same percentage WSU had of nabbing Groves and Eason..... we can now out recruit Duke or Duke like programs.....we will win 23-25 to 28 games next year make the sweet sixteen worst case scenario, best case scenario win national championship....all this because we have 4-6 or 8 NBA players on this team..... if you can’t see this based on logical, things I think I might have read in some article or things announcers might have said during games I didn’t watch then you simply don’t know basketball or logic like Mr Spock....

There is an 41 to 56 to 77 percent chance that somebody lives in their parents basement!

 

[Coug1990]

He didn’t even Finnish HS which is why he is where he is now..

He went to a Finnish High School? Does he even speak Finnish? No wonder why he struggled in school.

 

[Observer11]

Have the qualifying rules changed? Does he have a qualifying SAT score and GPA?

If not (and thus my question on whether rules have changed), he has to get his AA before playing NCAA D-1. If he is qualified, he can play one year in the NWAAC and can transfer to D-1

The only options without both are NAIA or Canada.

It looks as if you are right. Doing a quick Google search shows he has decommitted from Kentucky. I wonder if he ends up at the uw?

 

[CougSinceBirth]

I don't know if Beauchamp is playing college basketball anywhere next year, it sounds like there's a check list of items he has to complete before being able to sign.

UW just scored the top JC kid yesterday and Hickman de-committed from UK, I have a feeling he's coming back to the state of WA...there's rumors GU has one more huge fish they're picking up (could be Hickman/Daejon Davis?) - they just added a nice combo guard from ISU yesterday.

Been an interesting offseason for the state of WA in basketball.

GU is a good guess. I think GU southeast, i.e., Arizona, might be a destination as well.

Yup, you are correct. If he's playing he has to get his AA. The strange thing in one of the articles he was quoted as saying it wouldn't hurt him to play. Regardless, it looks like he is still trying to go pro.

 

[COUGinNCW]

G League is my prediction.

 

[CougSinceBirth]

GU is a good guess. I think GU southeast, i.e., Arizona, might be a destination as well.

Well, looks like I was correct...

Hickman is going to GU, and Davis is going to UW.

 

[SaveFerris]

Saw Davis to UW today. Hadn't seen Hickman to GU.

 

[Coug1990]

Daejon Davis or Michael Flowers. Thoughts on who turns out to be the better player, or who helps his team the most, or any way someone wants to interpret best, valuable, etc.

 

[Coug4life34]

Saw Davis to UW today. Hadn't seen Hickman to GU.

Can somebody please post the Hickman to GU article?
