Throughout all these years on the board, I've always had an avatar pic of either Tony Iommi or his band, Black Sabbath.   Well, last night on twitter I found an awesome picture of our very own commit, "Kid Mamba," Tyus Battle, soaring for a dunk in a recent St. Joseph's (Metuchen, NJ) game.    I always thought I'd go with some sort of Iommi/Sabbath pic but this picture of Tyus was too good to not use.

Take a look. What do you guys think?   I'd post a bigger version here but it is copyrighted.  I reached out to the photographer on Twitter, who had no problem with me using it as my avatar.

I want to reiterate how pumped I am for Battle in Orange.   For you folks that don't frequent the recruiting board, Battle's been tearing it up lately, not just with scoring.   He's been doing everything well, filling the stat sheets in all areas, including blocked shots.  He will be an absolute terror at the top of our zone, and even at a legit 6'6", he has the lateral quickness.   All reports are that he's really upgraded his jumper, which was an area where improvement was needed.

I'm trying to find a game to go to and issue a detailed game report like I've done a few times in the past.   He doesn't play in my area though, so it will be tough.    I'll make it happen to give everyone a first-hand look at our future star.
