Maybe Deandre Davis could be approached? 2020 3* committed to Nebby before, decommitted. Lawrence Central kid, with some game like MHill, better ball handler by far, not as good a shooter maybe, more athletic?
Wouldn't hurt to put out feeler if staff thinks he is good enough...6'6 ball handler and slasher/shooter?

I am reasonably sure the staff understands the difference in urgency between a 2020 top 60 guy compared to a 2022 guy from down the road.

But....will BU even talk to him? #loyaltymindswanttoknow
You should but just don't break ground for the statue just yet.

Xavier will be a major player. Hearing he is heading over there Friday for their Midnight Madness.
Steele is very well connected with Indy Heat program and Jason Delaney the 17u coach.
Xavier would be a really good landing place for him...
Purdue and Xavier in to see him tonight.
Lousiville also going to be highly involved as they are in hot pursuit of his little brother D'Ante for 2022. Just offered him tonight. Holds offer from Xavier already.
Steele is building something special over there. Will have huge success. Likely going to put Naji Marshall and Paul Scruggs in the league after this year. The KyKy Tandy kid is legit.
Steele is a legit threat on the recruiting trail too, luckily he doesn't want to recruit Chicago.
Steele knows how to get dirty with the best of them. He was right in the middle of the IDKWTI fiasco. He has been an assistant to none other than Sampscum and Sean Miller. The question is can he coach? Groce's BIL, too.

Mack left that cupboard bare and Steele exceeded expectations. He'll have Xavier in the tourney every year, they hardly ever miss the tourney.
He really wanted that Xavier job, had a ton of good offers elsewhere years before that job came open. Then again it doesn't hurt that the wife's parents are some of Xaviers biggest boosters.
He keeps saying he wont decide until December/January. ASU seems to be focused on Josh Christopher
Terry got Creaned before he ever signed. Daddy supposedly is Lavar Ball 2.0. A.J. Hoggard took his place.
Louisville just lost out on Deivon Smith, expect them to be a major player. Likely will take them out of the Adam Miller race permanently...

I like this news
we be writing stuff like that about brucie a few years ago too. coaches maturate and get better over time just like players. maybe martin found a home in como like webber in kansas. at least martin's not under ncaa scrutiny like our guy, brad.

watching from afar, it's clear that underwood is making progress with this squad. a few additions and some seasoning, they'll be more than competitive next year. for all those coach weber lovers and haters, thanks for freeing him up for us. fine coach. better man. #emaw

I don't understand.... how can you say that BU is "our" guy?? It appears that you are a Kansas State fan from previous post...
That article you linked is just stupid. Lamont Evans wasn't breaking rules to get players into OSU or S. Carolina, he was breaking rules trying to get guys to an agent AFTER school once the players went pro. So HC responsibility for something that didn't benefit the HC and didn't benefit the school, that makes a load of sense! Talk about weak reporting.
