Additional comments from Griffin about the four schools he selected:
Zion Griffin Cuts List, Sets 4 Officials
Considering the connection between those four schools and the reasons given for their selection should be avoided if you get headaches easily.

Yeah that is possible. But for this year come and play in the "super division" against top city competition then go back home. But he would be the man at M. Park next year. Only time will tell.This is just a prediction. But my guess is he'll be back in the area next year.
Can't have this game at Morgan Park though. Gotta find a safe place to play the game. On second thought you are right, needs to be on the Cube. If they had any sense, it would be on MeTV. I am sure a lot of our poster buddies would watch it.This was all over the place every where I went last winter. One of the worst kept 'secret' transfers in a long time. And I agree with Robjilla, I hope MP-Simeon is on the Cube this year. Should be epic.

Joel, you're a good researcher. Do some work on ZG's AAU coach. I'll give you a start, his name is Quintin Garrison and he's an Illini grad of '05 with a degree in finance. OK?
Do you actually know something about him that you are just being really coy about? Because some of us apparently aren't good researchers and didn't turn up anything useful by Googling him.
Quick glance and saw nothing. Maybe just come and give your reasoning?
But then again, i like it when people shoot straight to the point, instead of trying to be cute and cryptic.

Except he was undecided until early summer on where he was going.
I mean, at first glance you would think a guy with an Illinois degree who was friends with the '05 team would only help us, but TC seems to be implying that it actually hurt us. I don't honestly know what to make of that.
He was a very good HS BB player and thought about walking on. He was very close to the '05 team and in particular JH. My guess is that JH and Self are helping out an "old friend" and giving him the "proverbial" offer and invite to Late Night.
My guess is that BU and staff didn't think he was plan A based on his open gym performance and other evaluation and told them such. They were ticked and thus the "no UI" on final 4 list.
It will be interesting where ZG ends up but I wouldn't be surprised if it is Illinois State.
It sort of reminds me of Josh Cunningham and how he had all those HM offers yet ended up at Bradley.
My first thought was "he kept ISU on there as a fallback"
That could be for a few reasons
1. Some of his bigger offers aren't commitable
2. He wants to be the man, or play against competition he is more comfortable with
3. He has a bad HS season
4. He gets injured?
Just some speculation, nothing more

That was the statement, sounds like it came from a good source. Yes , back to the active recruits.
At least we found out early and this didn't drag
+1
Was intrigued by the kid but the early decision allows more time for other targets

Not if he was close with Jerrance, which is what I believe he is implying. He could be right.
Virtually no way the Kansas offer is real, just blowing smoke, maybe just f...ing with us.
After reading his comments and infatuation with the Kansas offer, and that Iowa State "wants and needs" him, I think it is as simple as we didn't make him feel as special as the other remaining schools.
BU has a habit of laying out a developmental plan for players. If the player and the staff are in general agreement of their current skill set, that attention to detail is impressive. If the player has an inflated view of his current skill set versus the staff's current view, it could be deemed offensive while other schools are kissing his !!!.
He clearly has a high major ceiling, maybe even an NBA ceiling with his athleticism, but he is just learning to be a wing. In all of the highlights I have ever watched, I have never seen a more one hand dominant player. He has lots of work to do before he can be successful against a high major defense.
I have no knowledge of what actually happened, but reality can be a buzz kill.
edit: I see TC confirmed the JH thing, and agree with the logic in the rest of his post.
Think you have the ISU right, maybe just the wrong state.
The most logical explanation is this kid was looking to a place he would be needed. He all but said that flat out with his recount of the creepy Iowa state comment.
Underwood likely said we're looking at a couple of guys at this position, which he didn't like, then he looked at our roster and said they have a lot of wings. There is probably a better place for me.
Talen Horton-Tucker has been and continues to be my top choice for wing recruits. That kid just knows how to play. I think if he sheds that baby fat he could have a Deronesque improvement to his game.
