Maybe if we’re just talking about basketball. But the kid has obviously been through a lot. He might different motivation when making his commitment. I hope it’s SLU, but who knows.

That is a good perspective. All i can say is i have spent some time in Normal, and I was always happy to drive back to STL.

Regardless, I love the roster we have and team blue is going to be fun for some years to come.

Out of reactions. Good post.

What at all is enticing about ISU right now? They won nine games last year. They're 150ish in Torvik's 2021 ranks. Why wouldn't Bradley be the choice if you're trying to stay really close? Illinois? 

I understand the wanting to stay home, but ISU is such a wild choice considering his options, especially those within three hours of Normal.

Is Illinois State a top five program in the state?

They won NINE GAMES in that dumpster fire of a conference.

His dad passed away a few months back.  I think you underestimate the ability to get home in 10 minutes to see / be with his mother as compared to 3 hours.

Not common but it does happen more than you would think.

Taj gave us an update of all the A10 teams 2 weeks ago or so, and if memory serves correct, 2 of our A10 competitors were then over-subscribed.   Not all that uncommon.  RM over subscribed for us here at SLU for a short time.   

Will Okoro pick us?  No idea.   But Ford needs to clear a sport first?   No.  Why would anyone even say that?

We can have more commits than scholarships available. Happens in the big league teams all the time. It doesn’t have to be diarra either. No one knows for sure if thatch is healthy or Goodwin or French wanna play for 300k in g league 

Agree.  And once an existing player announces he will leave, questions will abound as to where he will go and his leverage may actually drop --- not good for our players

Maybe he meant he declared for the NFL draft - Round 2 starts at the same time.  Coincidence?

And...the plot thickens!

is that a reliable source? They joined twitter this month. Hope it's true though.

They’ve tweeted a lot about recruits to be completely random.
