IndySportsPartizan Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 Precious just committed to Memphis. One would assume that Trendon eliminates them based on the criteria he is looking for. Bama and IU make sense, LSU in no way makes sense. So he will end up at LSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more frustrating that seeing a crooked program continuing to reel in great recruits. I don't get LSU at all. I could make a stronger argument for any of his other finalists than I can make for a program that should be on sanctions. If LSU gets hit in the next few months, they most likely miss the tournament and every player on the team is under a cloud of suspicion simply by association with a crooked program. Not a great way to spend your college career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I'm hoping he goes to Alabama just to save face. This is from Reddit: So let me get this straight: • James Wiseman 5* (#1) • Precious Achiuwa 5* (#14) • Boogie Ellis 4* (#37) • DJ Jeffries 4* (#48) • Lester Quinones 4* (#56) • Malcolm Dandridge 4* (#98) • Damion Baugh 4* (#108) • Rayjon Tucker (One of the top grad transfers) ======================================= Pretty amazing. Penny didn't do a bad job coaching Memphis last year, either. If another program will be seeing success, I have no problem with it being Memphis over Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, or UNC. Give a town a thing to cheer for, instead of arrogant kids at Duke in their Vineyard Vines pastel clothes, or belligerent KU or KU fans. I know it's all being obtained through cheating at this point, so at least give some of the fun to a town/program that will enjoy it more. I don't know that I can stomach seeing Duke/KU/Kansas celebrate anymore. I read plenty of threads at the Memphis forums this year, and the Vanderbilt forums last year. Vanderbilt fans were miserable. The guys at the Memphis board were mostly just happy/excited, and didn't talk down other programs in the process. Fine, I can be happy for them. In the mean time, let's keep on hoping that Archie is our guy, and we'll get to the Villanova/Virginia level. It's not uncharted territory for Archie, he had a lot of success at Dayton. We need 7-8 good players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayward1 Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 Brooks is probably a two year player no matter what what school he goes to. So he probably thinks he'll be the star next year. If Cal brings in a ringer at the 3 next year, then he could have serious buyer's remorse. Until then, I'd guess he's happy where he's at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
