    Some good Burger Boys' playing right now on ESPN. Shabazz Mohammed looks real good. Anthony Bennett looks good, too.

    Former NBA'er Ike Austin's son Isaiah looks like a beast. He's taking his talents to Baylor next year.

    There's probably a handful of future NBA'ers in this game.

    I just don't understand how Baylor keeps getting those recruits. Perry Jones might be a very good NBA player, but has Drew put out any legitimate NBA talent with the classes he pulls at Waco?

    Odds are there are more than just a handful. More like a dozen or so, with a handful going to the NBA after their freshman season.

    The last time I watched this game was in 2006. Oden dominated but Durant won MVP.

    Yeah, I remember that game. Thanks for punching me in the gut.

    I make sure to watch every year. Get a feel for the upcoming freshman class. I'm surprised Mitch McGary's not on the team. He's going to Michigan next year, I've watched him play a couple AAU games and was a baller.

    Yogi Ferrell looks real good. Going to Indiana next year. Jason Williams is convinced Zeller's staying at IU. The Hoosiers could be real tough next year.

    Pretty cool to look back at past years. Seems to always be loaded with NBA guys -- stars or solid role players -- every year. And then guys like Babbitt in '08.

    I'd take the '04 class as a team right now with Rondo, Gay, Josh Smith, Aldridge and Dwight. With Al Jefferson, JR Smith, Afflalo, Gibson, Farmer, Marvin Williams, Telfair, Big Baby off the bench.
