K is texting the Duke shoe company to stay on their recruits...need top 3 recruits in 2019 like 2018.

He’s also sent his friends the message they should see the dufus sitting next to him!

Does he make it to Butler for his last visit? Money still on Cuse for proximity and ACC play

He's already been to Butler. He visited there last Tuesday and Wednesday. I don't recall anything that was said afterward. Could be good for Butler, could be bad, but it's odd that his mom didn't tweet anything afterward like she did with Illinois, Syracuse and Georgetown. On a positive. Illini fans really represented well on Twitter hitting her with more likes, retweets, and comments than all the other schools combined. So the Illini fans did their part.

If he is trying to reclassify, I believe he would have to take the SAT before May 10th. That is not a for sure statement, just what I have heard. That would give him his test results before the end of May.
so the only SAT left is 5 May. If UI will consider ACT...that was April 14

All Juniors are required to take the SAT in Illinois...that was 2 weeks ago. He likely has taken it.

This feels kind of like Xavier Simpson to me. Anybody else?

I guess the big difference is that we all new Georgetown could be a contender whereas Simpson committing to UM on an unofficial (and originally unscheduled) visit, on the heels the Wisky visit, came out of left field.

What made the Simpson one bad is that he and his Dad were on their way back from an OV to Wisky and landed at DTW and drove over to AA and met with Beilein and staff and iin the car on the way back to Lima, called Beilein and committed.

Don’t know if this is still true but previously the state administered test does not qualify for the NCAA Clearinghouse. Have to take it on a national test date.

This isn't true.

"A student may take the SAT or ACT an unlimited number of times before he or she enrolls full time in college. If a student takes either test more than once, the best subscores from each test are used for the academic certification process."

Yeah, Simpson’s dad was on a whole other level.

So if Golden ends up a Hoya and Okoro does not re-classify, what is the contingency plan?
