MIF up 38-37 at half. Lots of THT to Ayo, Ayo hitting a lot of shots. THT banks in a NBA 3 just before the end of the half. Playing The City Rocks (NY) -- pretty good team.
Even ignoring the last couple of tweets, I feel good about Badocchi. It sounds like he likes both UVa and Illinois, but Underwood's system is more appealing than Bennett's. (Hey, there's something we can feel really good about given the coaching search.) I think we get Badocchi unless another big offer materializes in the next week, he is blown away by a Wichita visit, or the staff decides to slow-play him (based on a chance of picking up one/both of Bragg/Tilmon.)
I think we close the year out with:
Badocchi
Bragg or Tilmon
5th-year transfer big or roll the scholarship to 2018
Fire turns it over with 22 seconds to go, up by 2. I can just tell Girard is going to nail a 3 to win it. Penn State has offered him, hope he goes elsewhere.

No. 1 prospect R.J. Barrett on reclassifying: "Right now, I'm still 2019." Said he plans on deciding in August on whether to move to 2018.
