Published: Aug. 11, 2021, 1:30 a.m.

It was a big week in recruiting for both 2021 and 2022, so the guys spend much of the pod diving into that. Jalen Duren's commitment to Memphis and reclass decision to join the fray in 2021 is one of the biggest moves of the offseason, providing the Tigers with a low-post force for what should be a top 20 team. They also touched on Emoni Bates officially reclassifying into 2021 and whether he'll play college basketball, plus the implications NIL has had on these top recruits. Plus, quick-hitters on Keyonte George committing to Baylor, Tarris Reed popping to Michigan and Kel'el Ware choosing Oregon over hometown Arkansas. The guys also take on a fun exercise: building a hypothetical college Olympic team. They each pick 12 guys they would have taken with them to Tokyo if basketball only allowed amateur players.
