My question is Shannon better than AJ?
All respect to AJ, but without question
My question is Shannon better than AJ?
Not much of a surprise, he was on Werner show in last couple of days and it sounded like he didn't know much, but was betting on WVU because of proximity and relationship.Piper CB for Oscar to WVU.
I have no idea what is implied by this video, but I love it!

Ah, makes sense. I'm a little slow today.Huggy Bear?
+1.
Chin is far and away the best recruiter out of all 3 assistant coaches right now. If UK didn't get involved with Whitney he was ours and Chin did a great job on that recruitment.
Antigua can't seem to reel in anything but 3 stars, if he reels in Kofi or OT all is forgiven but the chances of that are slim to none.
Walker can't get anything at all...
Time for some changes if we don't get any top 100 kids this class.
Paying these two guys WAY too much money for them to be performing like this on the recruiting trail.
Crap....on to the next one.Piper CB for Oscar to WVU.

Piper is a homer.
He said Liddell to Illinois right before the visit and then changed it to OSU when no one else said to Illinois.
Putting those OVs to good use!
I'm for it, but at this point we need to hold some back for guys that we can get. I've heard that Jitoboh's OV got cancelled, possibly for this reason?Everyone is frustrated. But what would you recommend? Not using OVs on plan A guys doesn't seem like a winning strategy.
Quincy Guerrier - Who knows, maybe 40% Oregon, maybe 40% Syracuse, 20% Illinois.
EJ Liddell (Committed to Ohio State on Oct. 1st)
Terrence Shannon (Commitment announcement: Nov. 1st) - Who knows. Our best chance to get anyone is Shannon... I'd put our odds at 33%...
Oscar Tshiebwe (Commitment announcement: Oct. 21st) - Likely WVU
Anthony Walker - Likely Miami

BU is going to need to deliberately build this thing up over a period of years.
It's all well and good that we have two different threads for recruiting and the 18-19 season, but I think some people are failing to connect some dots as a result.
The outlook isn't likely to improve in the spring if we finish 13th in the B1G as projected.
And does an empty recruiting class have any impact on potential transfers out? That's a bit speculative but it can't help.
Over on the other side of Kirby, the architecture of what's being built, the plan, is crystal clear and being followed. You may not like the plan and the plan may not work, but it's right there to be seen and moving along step by step. Brad Underwood acquired Ayo Dosunmu at the price of one of his assistant slots, and beyond that it's one big shrug emoji.
When you have a glaring need and lack of bodies at a position, make an early get of a developmental player who you like and can land with comparatively less effort a priority.
Good recruiters aren't just able to close in drawn-out free-for-alls with major programs for top talent, they are also able to lock down and get quick and easy commits in the recruitments of less hyped players who they like. Combine that ability with really good scouting and you've got a stew going, and a lot of man-hours to dedicate to supplementing that base with a star or two.

Good Lord, GMAB! Chin's pulling more than his weight.
No reason, no data, no inside information, but I think he is going to choose Illini.Yep. In the absence of further info, there's little doubt that WVU is the heavy favorite. Another hope for a pure business decision. Would be monumental.
He did.I thought he visited UK the weekend after his IL visit? Regardless, it will be a shock to everyone if he doesn't pick WVU
