The Good-Love following guys on twitter like Eric Bossi, Jay Bilas, Dickie V(sue me, I love him), Crean, Calipari etc..Info gets passed faster there. For instance. How many of us knew Cory Johnson signed with a team in Holland? Congrats Cory and good luck!
Love following the VU guys. Their interaction is funny. VERY funny

Congratulations Cory, heading to the homeland.  Pack your wooden shoes and guide to Windmills and you will be set!

Does he have a Dutch family background?  I'd have guessed Scandinavian.

Which team was it?

AAU basketball has been a cancer on college basketball for as long as parents have let the AAU coaches make life decisions for their kids.

My homeland...probably not Cory's.  Very excited for Cory.  He mentioned when I interviewed him how hard he was working to get picked up by a team over there.
