So...undersized local white kid w/ dapper looks who plays defense

2/1 odds: ~~Freedom Hall~~ New Downtown Arena will chant “Elisha” during his career at Louisville. (BJ Flynn…standing…clapping…will cry)

Seems to like to drive...

might not bode well against the big boys of the Big East.

He will need to work on that outside shot. Form seems a bit iffy to me, but I’ve been surprised before.

Love the heart he shows. Love the hustle. Love the intensity of D. $10 says he and Kuric get drunk at a wedding together in the off-season.

And then they both get tased?

I don’t think he can take two like TJ.

I wish the competition he was playing against in this video wasn't so crappy

I mean he looks awesome from the highlights, but the level of talent he’s playing against is laughable in comparison to high level high school basketball and to what it’s going to be like in the big east.

But he’s just a walk-on, so it doesn’t really matter one way or the other. I hope he turns out awesome.

Love the breakaway "dunk"

This kid deserves all the praise in the world for being a great high school player, but he does not need to be coming to Louisville. He will not see the floor. I certainly wish him the best.

Wasn't Preston almost a walk-on?

Guy who plays tough D? From a school in Kentucky? Plus what looks better than JUSTICE! on a game thread?

Wishful thinking I know, but still

I'm a fan

just because he’s from Kentucky and from the hills in Appalachia where my family roots are. And we haven’t had a kid from those parts since Jeff Hall. Maybe Brian Kaiser counts from Estill County. I’ll take a local walk-on any day. I hope he does well.
