Weedy, apart from Furphy, do you think there are any potential future Boomers in the boys?
If so, who do you think in that group?

Furphy (Connecticut) and Adair (Loyola) are leaving for college mid-year for the boys. I assume the rest of the list is staying until next year.

Marcus Vaughns is legit.
Offer from LSU and has also spent some time with Illawarra. Potential next star?

Vaughns being eyed up for a next star, had a hell of an outing recent NBA Global games. And from the limited look of him with the hawks they are really keen on him. With an american father and citizenship he can get a chunk on the NIL compared to others which could sway him

South Carolina, LSU, Kentucky, Miami, Texas, Arizona, Mississippi State

Although kids with US citizenship have it easy logistically with NIL, I think the Aussie kids without US citizenship are getting all of their NIL money, just routed via Australia.
