In case you missed it: Kerry Eggers column had a ton of info

Thought I'd highlight some of the info that Kerry Eggers dumped on Tuesday.

Apparently Mychal Thompson's son is Seth Tarver's best friend and is interested in coming to OSU. Maybe a sweet walk-on?

The former Trail Blazer’s oldest son, Mykee, is a 6-7 senior at Santa Margarita Catholic High in Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif., after having played junior varsity ball as a sophomore at Jesuit. “Mykee and (Jesuit senior) Seth Tarver are best friends,” Mychal Thompson says.

Mykee Thompson is a starting post on a team that is ranked second in the Southern California section and lost to the top-ranked team, Mater Dei of Santa Ana, in overtime last Tuesday.

“Mykee’s a late bloomer but a very good player,” his father says. “Understands the game — high basketball IQ. Versatile. Can shoot, pass, block shots. My only complaint is sometimes he needs to be a little more selfish, in a good way.”

The elder Thompson says Mykee’s first college choice is to play at Oregon or Oregon State, “or, if not, anywhere in the Pac-10.”

Some other news and notes:

After 10 years with Easton Sports Inc., Oregon State baseball has signed a multiyear equipment agreement with Wilson Sporting Goods. The Beavers will continue to wear Nike Inc. cleats but will be provided hats, T-shirts, sleeves, sweat pants and travel bags from Wilson. Both companies will provide uniforms.
“I have nothing but good things to say about our relationship with Easton,” OSU coach Pat Casey says, “but we have a better situation with what Wilson can provide.”

Oregon State has received verbal commitments from three high school football players from Kahuku, Hawaii: 6-2 220-pound linebacker twins Devin and Kevin Unga and 6-1, 185-pound safety Suaesi Tuimaunei. That brings the Beavers’ commit list to 26.
