Here’s a quick-hitting list of transfers likely to impact this year’s preseason state rankings. Our preseason boys basketball rankings will be released in early November.
Note: We recently sent our a preseason questionnaire to some of the better boys basketball programs in the state. Coaches, please be on the lookout for it in your mailbox at school. If you did not receive one, or think it will get lost in the shuffle at school, please email Ronnie Flores at ronlocc1977@yahoo.com for a digital copy. We’ll be updating our player rankings in the 2015-2018 classes, beginning with 2015 in the next week. You can get other boys basketball updates by following Ronnie on Twitter: @RonMFlores

Thank you very much for the revealing information. Good work.
No problem Phil60. Thanks for visiting our site.
Are you sure Miles Oliver is at Etiwanda…. If so the eagles should have a talented back court between him and Garrett Carter.
Kahlil Simplis and bennie boatwright will be a great 1 2 punch as well
Myles is a Etiwanda, yes, but there is still some questions whether or not he’s going to actually be on the team.
Thanks for the response I follow all of your work and I’m enthused by all of your blogs…….. Why wouldn’t Myles be on the team?
