I’m not going to lie. I hadn’t seen Illinois State’s Osiris Eldridge play that much this season until I saw him against Northern Iowa in the Missouri Valley Conference tournament. But after one ridiculous pull-up jumper after another, I was ready to hand him a 10-day contract. Read More »

It looks like Converse’s Open Gym hit the 404 right before the big snow storm. Kids came out, laced their kicks up and hit the court. This installment of Open Gym Atlanta brought out 200 new kids. The word is spreading down in the ‘A’ that Open Gym is what’s up. Read More »

Following up our post last week, “Where Do You Play Ball?,” we wanted to take it one step further. We definitely love hearing where y’all get your run in, and please continue to let us know, but now we’re looking for the guys like Jed who organize their own run.
