Excited to announce that I have signed my first professional basketball contract to play with @mhp_riesen in Ludswigburg, Germany 🇩🇪 I want to thank everyone who have believed in me and supported me through this process 🙏🏾 I’ve came a long way but this is only the beginning! 🏁 #TheMarathonContinues"

JF will be in the Bundesliga, Germany's top professional league. I checked the team website and a nice photo of JF was alternating with others as the front page. There are lots of Americans in the league with JF's team last year including Jordon Crawford (Bowling Green 2013), Marcos Knight (Middle Tennessee 2013), Adam Waleskowski (Fla State 2005--nice long pro career there), Malcolm Hill (Illinois 2017), Kelan Martin (Butler 2018)

Friend/former player for me coached Momo Jones (Arizona/Iona) in Japan...he played on J's NHP Riesen team last year.
He said it's a very good league with great pay.
Congrats J!

Floyd is such an awesome story. Happy for him.
The former coaching staff (Freddie Owens) definitely deserves credit for developing him.

That is some article. It could have been produced by someone doing PR for Holy Cross. As has been said already, copies of it should be given to every recruit. I agree with that 100%.
