So what skills or competitive instincts, drive or BBIQ does Ayo have over THT?THT is no where near the bubble as a burger boy- Ayo sure but THT is well off that

Ah my bad, misread your post
It's ThT and The Irvin's really. But THT essentially left Ayo as well so...
Pearson had pretty good numbers this wknd. Definitely some potential there.
Ayo, Finke, Conditt, Pearson would be the most realistic 4 I would think right now.
If that's the class, I'll be underwhelmed.
Anything with Ayo and I'll be overwhelmed, we haven't got a recruit like him since Dee Brown

Have you heard of Mark Smith?
Yes and he's not that level

Yes, if you want THT more than Ayo you absolutely are crazy. One will play in the NBA, the other will not.
I seriously doubt ayo is a one and done
I wasn't implying he was, just saying that having players with NBA talent as a freshman is nice, but there are great college players who really drove their teams and did not make the NBA.

You have realize, BU can only sell so much right now? The recruits have not seen what his team at ILL will play like, and how they will do. He has no statistics to back up what he is selling besides previous coaching gigs and statistics from those. He wins and plays fast that's really all they know, after this year kids will be able to see how their game could fit within the system, and if he wins like I think he will. The sell will become much easier.
Besides you can't be underwhelmed, Groce didn't reel in a 5* prospect in his entire tenure, BU could do it in his first few months.

You misunderstand. I'd love to land Ayo. He'd be a massive recruit (that said, I'm not convinced he'll be more of an impact player than Smith). I'd love to land Conditt, and I think we will. That recent AAU game against Castleton made me a true believer. My underwhelmed comes from Finke and Pearson. We can and should do better.

Agreed. Pearson though would most likely be to add Ayo, and if that's the case I think almost all of us would agree to take him. Finke is where the underwhelming option would come from. We are after several small forwards and right now Finke is around 4th or 5th on the list for most people.
To be clear, I'm talking from a rating perspective, landing five star recruits gets positive attention for the program.
Obviously Mark Smith was a fantastic get, but Ayo would be even bigger

I don't agree. He moved into the top 50 on Rivals after one season as a high major basketball prospect. If that was his junior year and he would presumably be participating in the AAU events this summer, I think it's fair to say he might be rated right with or higher than Ayo in the 2018 class. He's that good. Mich St, Duke and Kentucky all with committable offers. Go back and look at the tape. He does stuff that looks comparable to 5-star players.
Look at the eybl scoring leaders and you'll see the only players ahead of him are Bagley, Barrett and Bol, that is truly elite company.
