Hello! And welcome to the Blue Chips forum here on Arizona Varsity!

This forum will be the go-to source for all things high school basketball related in the state of Arizona from prospect and team evaluations to schedule breakdowns and more.

It’s a first of its kind forum dedicated to providing you as a subscriber a detailed and comprehensive guide to the state of basketball from high school to the pros.

We’ll examine both college basketball news involving Arizona State and high school alumni as well as the NBA with the Phoenix Suns.

This forum will be moderated by Gregg Rosenberg and myself and while you’re in here, the biggest and only rule we do ask that you follow is to treat everyone whether it be staff or your fellow subscribers with respect.

We do know that there’s passionate and genuine interest and support for the players, coaches, and teams we’ll be reporting on and discussing but in order for that to happen, respect for everyone must be given.

There are a lot of interesting tidbits in this week's Zone Read from our friends Eric Sorenson and Cody Cameron over at Sports360AZ

Namely this one:

Sam Keller coaching QBs at Pinnacle, replacing Trace Carroll (now at Chaparral)- Keller is no stranger to helping out in the AZHSFB scene, but Pinnacle's QB history is as rich as anyone's, and stepping in for Wyatt Horton won't be easy. Should be interesting!

I have a feeling this thread may be the most fun, and heated, of them all here on ArizonaVarsity.com. It's exactly what it sounds like: A place where arguments and debating over various topics is safe. My nickname for this thread will be the Zach and Jacob Seliga Thunder Dome, as I imagine him and I getting into quite a few quarrels on this here thread.

BUT, it's all in good fun and for the good of the community, as it introduces a message board that is safe from (most) trolls that Twitter is inhabited with. So, sit back, relax and let the debating begin.

EYBL came through AZ this past weekend..

For the 1st stop.

I had a chance to take a look at most top teams plus the AZ players..

We're 14 days into the spring contact period, and almost every Division I school is wrapping up its spring camp, meaning lots of offers will be reported from players over the next several weeks as spring ball begins here in Arizona. Many college coaches will be visiting the Valley over the next month, and today seemed like the jumpstart of a big spring recruiting cycle in AZ.

Summary:
- '26 DB Cannon Garday (Liberty) reported an offer from Fordham
- '26 ATH Corey Webb Jr. (Tonopah Valley) reported an offer from Eastern Washington. (NOTE: Webb received his first D1 offer yesterday from Idaho—I missed that yesterday on my Twitter/X.)
- '26 OL Malachi Joyner (Williams Field), '26 LB Bastian Vanden-Bosch (Brophy), '27 DB Nas Eason (Higley), '27 OL Chase Grohman (ALA-GN) and '26 ATH Kydel Stone (Saguaro) all reported an offer from New Mexico. It looks like New Mexico has a couple of coaches who are actively recruiting Arizona talent.
- '27 ATH Dontay Tyson (Peoria) reported another Big 10 offer from Minnesota.
- '26 LB Beau Jandreau (Hamilton) reported an SEC offer from Tennessee.

Tyler Shough was the first off the board to the New Orleans Saints at #40, making him teammates with Pinnacle's Spencer Rattler, who actually graduated a year after Shough.
