Burnett adding Auburn this late in the game isn’t a real good sign. I wouldn’t put anything past Satan. Watching a lot of video on TyTy and color me extremely impressed. Whoever gets that kid is getting one heck of a player.
It would be sweet to come in and sweep him out of BP's hands. I have to wonder about the advice some of these kids are getting regarding where to sign. Auburn, Kansas, and several other schools are facing multiple Level 1 violations by the NCAA. At minimum, they're looking at potentially multiple postseason bans. Why would players of Burnett's caliber go to a program and potentially play for nothing?

Because they wouldn't be playing for nothing?

So I wonder if there is any correlation with Auburn's late play due to Ty Ty position?

Nikki B is running the show in Nimari recruitment... Anything can happen.

TyTy is going to be a stud and personally, I feel really good about where we sit with him. We are in a lot better position than people think...

I'm sure it is in this thread somewhere, but is their a time frame for his decision..thanks

Don't get me wrong, I think Nimari is going to be good, but I think I'd rather have TyTy based on what (relatively little) I've seen. A lot of similarities between the two, but TyTy's better shooting and old man's game is appealing. I think he's going to have a great collegiate career wherever he ends up.

Did not know that Ayo's Dad is coaching at Kenwood Academy with Mike Irvin. Is it safe to say, we might have a Kenwood pipeline??
If they don’t already the Dosunmu’s should work on having another son for no particular reason

I can't imagine Kofi has made an official decision yet, unless it's going pro regardless of the feedback he gets predraft, so I'll take the "Kofi returning" option off the table. I'd guess one of the guards commits.

If we land a high-impact big man, does that give us an indication as to the (lower?) probability of Kofi coming back?
