Boys’ basketball: The first funny text story is in

Last Friday marked the first day college basketball coaches could send unlimited text messages to juniors and seniors in high school, and West Hills Chaminade 6-foot-8 junior Jack Williams received a text message at 12:01 a.m. from Northern Arizona.

‘We’re texting you at 12:01 because we want you to be a Lumberjack,’ was the message Williams received.

And there was this: ‘Our mascot already has your name in it: Lumber-’Jack.’’

Assistant coaches capable of writing witty text messages will be much in demand.
