With limited scholarships in '18, I don't think we'll be pushing Finke for a commitment soon. Even though everyone is a fit for BU's system, lol, Tim probably less than some others.
Ayo, Weaver, Shittu, De Sousa, THT, Days; are surely a little higher on our board & a better fit for the kind of team that BU is wanting to put together.

And Ayo will be Illini so you can take that scholarship off the board.

I sure hope you are correct. What are the chances of it happening sooner rather then later? Is there any way it happens before the season starts?

Last thing I was told was to not expect a commitment from him until the fall.

That's what I was expecting. I wonder if he, and whomever else we target for 2018, will want to wait until we get quite a few games under our belts before they make a decision. We all have high expectations, but we also know that means absolutely nothing.

I'd be cool with this. It's been a while since we've had a guy with a fun, polysyllabic name that actually saw a lot of floor time like Krupalija or Chukwudebe.

Our PA announcer may want to start practicing names. Brazdeikis, Dosunmu, Badocchi, DeSousa, Shittu, Minaya. Like the sound of all of them. Then again, I think I'm gonna like the sound of Smith.

Minaya is only 17, so he could reclassify to '18 fairly easily I would think.

[FONT=&quot]No Carte'Are Gordon for Team Penny. Don't know if he's injured or if Ford REALLY wants to keep him away from the Porters. I haven't read any reason why he switched to Penny after playing for MOKAN for 2 years but that's my guess.[/FONT]

So is assistant Orlando Antigua.

Checking out Justin Minaya with NJ Playaz taking on Phoenix Phamily. Marvin Bagley III not playing for Phamily today.

Interesting, last night Bagley was getting more and more annoyed that Bol Bol was playing as well as he was and seemed super ticked he wasn't getting foul calls. Got T'd up for throwing a temper tantrum on the bench after he fouled out. Wonder if his coach sat him or Nike did. Not a good look for the number 1 prospect for 2018. Kid's a great player but his team in winless and he acts like a spoiled child sometimes.

I agree on Brooks. I live in the same city as Brooks, and have watched him play several times. I hate to even say it, but reminds me a lot of KD in high school. Right now I would say he is a MSU lean. Izzo has been in town twice this year to watch him.
