Rumors out there that Okora could reclassify for 2018. Anybody hearing this?

Yeah, might need to stop using Loyalty via phone. Back on a laptop and will try to say something at least on topic--Looking at his videos, I'm very intrigued by "Finn's" skillset/athleticism combination and would be happy with a commit from him.

Whether this recruiting season turns out to be a home run or a foul tip, I'm excited to see what this current season and team have in store for us, and I'm really excited to see a new brand of basketball played by the beloved!

Don't care. Now Okoro, that would be great.

However, given that he has bounced around from school to school, I find it hard to believe he has the credits needed to graduate a year early.

Not sure it benefits him to reclassify. He isn't sure fire NBA. Needs Sr year to be the man in-state, Mr Bball season. Come in true freshmen and earn some minutes.

He's already a year older than his classmates and he won't be Mr basketball. That almost always goes to a guard.

He'd be a great candidate to move up a class, just that is hard to do.

I think Mr Basketball will be him or EJ, neither of them are guards, but they are the 2 best players in the state in 19

Do you guys really like calling him "the Finn"? The kid is from Scandinavia, he's got freaking Viking blood pumping through his veins for Pete's sake. We can do better

Finland isn't technically part of Scandinavia
