This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Like Sonia last year for the U19 USA team, by BabaGhanouj
Kennedy Umeh will be the youngest player for the U17 team in Hungary. She goes to McDonogh School in MD, and will graduate in 2024. Here is an indication on how competitive recruiting Kennedy is: (This is a quote from an article about her selection to the USA team.)
"Umeh has already received a lot of attention from college coaches. Although she was at the tryouts and couldn’t talk to coaches on June 1, the first day they were allowed to call her directly, McDonogh coach Brad Rees said more than 50 coaches tried to reach her. She’s also a stellar student who wants to be a doctor and Rees said with that combination of her game and her grades, she can play college basketball anywhere she wants."
