Josh Barr on Montrose Christian getting richer.
No word on whether Stu Vetter will have Tristan Spurlock and Terrell Vinson back for their senior seasons at Montrose, but they'll add yet another perimeter player in 6-foot-5 Dadrian Collins, according to the Post's Josh Barr. Spurlock's recruiting exploded this past summer, while Vinson is all over the place as well. Both are big-time recruits.
Personally, I'm a huge Spurlock fan myself. Other than No.1 ranked John Wall (could he be going to Baylor?), Spurlock was one of the most impressive guys at the Boo Williams Tournament in April. He's 6-foot-7, can knock down the outside shot and will only get stronger.
Collins played with Boo Williams this past AAU season, and surely caught some people's eyes after running under the radar at Woodside High in Virginia Beach last year.
There's also a YouTube video of Collins' highlight reel.

5 P.M. — Troy Mathieu New D.C. AD
Washington Post on Troy Mathieu's hiring: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/06/AR2008080602898.html
Grambling Bio on Mathieu: http://www.gsutigers.com/ssp/athletics-dept?s_id=3
The Post is really on top of high school coverage if Troy Mathieu's first day on the job as the D.C. public school athletic director was MONDAY, and they reported his hiring on THURSDAY.
I can't dispute that Mathieu has his work cut out for him. But he was previously Executive Director of the Nokia Sugar Bowl for four years. Impressive. At least then he can solve the money woes he didn't know about, "we didn't get into specifics on those subjects," he was quoted as saying.
Aside from the money issue (it's a big problem), signs things were wrong before— "[Mathieu] said he wants to listen to us, and that's a good thing," said Daryl Tilghman, coach and athletic director at Theodore Roosevelt. I can only imagine.
Potential anyone? "In 2002, while he was in Dallas, he started a one-day basketball tripleheader, pitting three city schools against three from the suburbs at downtown Reunion Arena. In the first year, Mathieu said, with just more than a week of planning, the event drew more than 17,000 fans and turned a profit of more than $150,000, which was split among the six schools."
Can't you smell a three-game day, including games like O'Connell-T.C. Williams (Virginia), DeMatha-Montrose Christian (Maryland) and Gonzaga-Coolidge (District). Oh, the possibilities...
*That's it for today. Until 7 a.m. tomorrow.*
