That was Bo's recruiting strategy, scour Illinois for 3-star white guys, then bake them in the Bo-inator for 2 years.
I am guessing playing time.
I think VT is the leader as of right now, but anything can happen.

I'm looking forward to seeing him play over the holidays. I saw him a couple times last season and was impressed, but didn't think his all around game and athleticism were quite at a B1G prospect level. He has great length and shooting ability, but is he the kind of athlete BU wants in his up-tempo style? I'm not convinced he is.
I thought I'd seen some article saying Flo had an OV scheduled with Baylor for Jan and was looking to make a decision in Jan as well. But 247 shows a 12/9 Baylor OV. Any certain clarification if the 12/9 Baylor OV went down and if we are indeed his last planned OV?

Yep. I wouldn't be surprised to see him decide before Christmas.
So any sightings or pics from today???
What makes Drew Peterson so dangerous that is that if you try to cross him he'll bury you.

Took me way to long to get this.
Now I'm just thinking of the potential Gus Johnson calls, "DREW PETERSON! COOOOOLD-BLOODED!!!"
Damn Ayo!
Meh, our pg scored 51 2 weeks ago. Then backed it up with 43 and 45. Pssh.
JK. I can’t wait to see Ayo in our system. I’ve never seen him play in person. I’m letting my imagine run wild.
Next year were could have the deepest back court in the nation.
1 Tejon/Trent/Ayo
2 Smith/Jordan/Ayo/Trent
3 Damonte/Kipper/Jordan/Smith
Getting another year of Underwood under their belts and we could be looking at a high scoring team with great D. Key will be Big E and Matic developing into rotation players or a big joining the 18 class that can contribute. I know you want to depend on them, but next year will be the perfect year to get a graduate transfer big.
Not trying to be a wet blanket, but I would like to know how many of those points were from jumpshots and not layups
Probably 80% we’re layups. He scored 50 last season and I you look at the highlights they were mostly around the rim.
So. That's exactly where he excels. It's great to have a guy that can get to the hoop and score

It's been said before, but he looks good in O&B. If we could pair him with Ayo, I dare anyone to argue that our program is not on the fast track back...jack.
