No gonna happen. If he stays in state and that is a big if he will be a coot. One of his closest "advisors" is Cary Rich ex gamecock player.

Only time he plays in Littlejohn, he will be wearing blue

As in UNC or Duke...he will be at Oak Hill Academy in 2 years if he wants to get better. Heathwood Hall equals Pinewood Prep & we know how well that works out.

You can always count on coachmac to say something

moronic....
Woods plays for Hammond, not Heathwood Hall. He is a phenom who needs no advice from a broken-down, would-be AAU coach.
Oak Hill is a great "basketball factory" for kids to escape broken-down public schools where they have no chance of qualifying academically if they don't make a move. Woods is at a real school (Oak Hill is a joke academically but they get their players qualified) who as you say will have his choice of schools - Duke, UNC and Kentucky among others. Why would he need Oak Hill? If he transferred anywhere it would be to an academically similar school to Hammond like Christ in Asheville or Montverde in FL.
Your crack at Pinewood Prep is just Chapter 37 of your weird little obsession with Milton Jennings. If you have half of the high school hoops knowledge you pretend to have, then you know what kind of talent Milt went up against in high school - the Plumlee brothers at Christ School, Ryan Kelly at Ravenscroft, Khris Middleton at Porter-Gaud (now with the Pistons), to name just a few. He more than held his own against the best high school players in the southeast on a regular basis.
The reality is more Clemson basketball players are recruited from schools just like Pinewood Prep (Tanner Smith from Wesleyan, Andre Young from Deerfield-Windsor, Austin Ajukwa from Cardinal Newman, Patrick Rooks from Charlotte Christian, Sidy Djitte from Northwood Temple Academy) than are ever going to come from Gaffney, Southside, Eau Claire, or Burke. Kids from those very strong basketball programs almost never qualify academically and the few that do almost never graduate. That is just the sad state of public education in the Palmetto State.

So which poor broken down public HS in SC did you go to?

IDIOT ALERT...did you read something in a magazine & C/P your superior knowledge?? Church leaguers rarely make an impact & certainly don't provide any competition for the few who do make it. Those schools are some of the worst at paying off the kids & recruiting, so get off your pompous high horse and grab some reality.

Well, the future of Clemson basketball happens to be

in the hands of some of your so-called church leaguers.
Welcome to Clemson, Messrs. Djitte, Ajukwa and Rooks. Pay no attention to coachmac - he's just that slob in the back of the gym at AAU tournaments who had no game as a player, who washed up as a would-be coach, is bitter that the game has passed him by and who tries to compensate for all of his obvious shortcomings by pretending to be a recruiting expert on the internet. There is one of these fools in practically every AAU gym and on most recruiting boards. He is Tigernet's cross to bear...

Remind me exactly where Clemson will be predicted to finish

in the ACC...14th, 15th or 16th? Your attempt at being a smarta$$ comes across as nothing more than a wanna be Bart Wright. You wanna stalk me because I've got the hardware & signees to prove you jealous, then so be it. Go stroke your ego at the YMCA by scouting the pee wee league if you want to feel important, but leave college ball to those who have experience & knowledge. Maybe Milt will let you adopt him and you can live off his $7.75 job at Wal-Mart or Devin will take you to BFE whenever he ends up after his summer camp with Big 'Bro runs out. It's a long way from the JV League to the ACC & no matter how much I like Brownell, these kids haven't been coached or competed & it will take 2 years to get them up to speed and have a chance to be winners.

Neither Milt nor Devin are going to need adopting by anyone. And of course no Clemson graduate makes $7.75 an hour at Wal-Mart or anywhere else. Rightly or wrongly, Milt and Devin will make more money in a few years of professional basketball than I did in 20 years as a prosecutor and a whole lot more than you will in your career as a voc. teacher and coach.
Devin is doing the Summer League thing and I don't blame him - he has a NBA body and a brother in the league. He may even try a year in the NBDL if he doesn't get a contract out of summer ball. But, NBDL players only make $25k - $50k a year so the smart ones go to Europe if they don't get called up in their first year or two.
I hope Devin's NBA dreams do come true - and of course the veteran minimum wage of $800k (before taxes) ain't chump change for being the 5th or 6th guy off the bench (if you get off the bench at all). Most likely though, Devin will end up in Europe with Milt (who has a body and game much better suited for European ball). The best European players do much, much better financially than the minimum wage NBA players sitting on the bench. Former Clemson great Terrell McIntyre ended his career in Spain a couple of years ago bringing in 1.2€ per year (after taxes). Using a 1.4 exchange rate, Boogie was clearing $1.7M a year after taxes by the time he retired. Former coot Chuckie Eidson (who like Milt played "church league ball" at Pinewood Prep) clears 1.09€ a year after taxes playing in Spain and now in Moscow. Also of note, the European teams pay ALL player expenses during the season (housing, vehicle, food) so these net salaries are awfully close to what players actually bring home to the states in the off-season.
So to put the article on Demontez Stitt in Tigernet this week in perspective, he was probably netting somewhere around 75€ (or $100k) starring for a fan-owned team in Tel-Aviv for the past two seasons. Now that some of the top German and Belgian teams are interested in him, Demontez could easily see his take-home increase three-fold next year and then hopefully double or triple again after a few years if he can stay healthy. I couldn't be happier for him - he is a great guy. And so to put your mind at ease, Milt and Devin won't be making $7.75 an hour or hitting you or me up for a loan. In a few years, they will likely be making more money than you could imagine. Of course, I don't think that will put your mind at ease at all - it will likely drive you (even more) nuts...
