This is a stunner. (Sorry it's not ILL or Ayo related but Wisky fans have to be fuming and bumming tonight. I mean this is worse than Tilmon was for us -- this guy is a lot better.)

Tyler Herro has announced his decommitment from Wisconsin. One of the most polished scorers in the 2018 class

Well yeah, we signed Te'Jon Lucas two years ago, and Mark Smith, Damonte Williams, and Trent Frazier last year. Between those three, we ought to be covered for a while regardless of Ayo's decision.

</overly seriousness>

We have been fortunate to have all these new guards join the squad, Ayo would be the Cherry on top. The one thing that makes you feel good about Ayo's visit, his comment that he and Mark Smith had a talk and he said that MS said come join us we will have the best backcourt in the nation.
What do you think Ayo thought about that? ;):thumb::chief:

Kid is really good. 6'6" pure shooter and well rounded scorer. Like to hear what led to the decision. I think our program is in the beginning stages of switching places with Wisconsin.:)

If we can't close on THT, we should definitely investigate. He says he is basically starting over.

There's only one plausible reason.

He heard Ayo is committing here and wants to play with him.:cool:

On a serious note, I'm pretty excited to see what kind of players we can try to backdoor late in this '18 class if we have a 5 star to sell them. THT is first up, of course.

Pow right in the kisser!

Seriously though we are very familiar with that feeling. Eric Gordon, Quinton Snyder, Jeremiah Tilmon. Feels bad man. :(

Did anyone else hear T. Finke's dad on Monday night? The gist was Tim was hurt during July and is playing much better now. Vandy is one that reached during that time he made that a point, but Tim likely won't make a decision until spring.

I for one would like to see him on the team, but if we can get our top targets and a big obviously that's what we should do. Still think he will be a nice player.

Ayo would be the highest ranked B1G recruit for 2018, with the exception of Langford possibly heading to IU. When was the last time we had the highest ranked B1G recruit??

Richard Keene was the highest B1G recruit in 1992.

Here's a shocker: I believe it was DJ Richardson, RSCI 35 in 2009. Next down the list was Christian Watford in the low 40s then BP3.

Royce White of Minnesota was higher ranked that year.
