Are any of those schools Under Armor schools? I've had it with them and their lousy shoes.

Looks like the UConn beat writers are getting the info.

@tcf15

my thoughts exactly

 

[Nebraskan18]

Us, Kentucky, and Syracuse

 

[SirHypeAlot]

It's us or Kentucky. Syracuse can see themselves out.

 

[tcf15]

Us, Kentucky, and NBA Syracuse

FTFY

If he's not intending to go to Indiana or Kansas....why even bother listing them and just trim to 4 or whatever? I guess he still doesn't really know...but we will see. Guess we have awhile before we find out.

Because those two huge fanbases will be following closely now that they have a "shot".

That's quite an impressive list of schools. Realistically, are our chances as good as anyone else's, or are we more on the outside looking in? Anyone have any insight at all? Gut feeling?

there is no way hd goes to zona, they are WAY too friggin stacked at the wing position with alkins simmons, and brandon randolph coming in. also confused why HD would go all the way out to zona to visit hurley last month but not stop by tuscon?

on a separate note, zagoria must be on suicide watch after not getting this tip over amore and paxton. Zagoria has fancied himself the insider on HD's recruitment since that august nba article. he hasn't even tweeted anything about HD cutting his list yet ha.

Our chances are better than everyone else's.

but why does that matter?

I skipped over the "Besides UConn" part of the tweet, and I was like,

Hamidou's gonna get a ton more people following him on Twitter and Instagram. That kind of stuff matters to kids these days.

It does not, that response made no sense to your question.

Maybe keeping the schools involved keep him and his AAU teammates getting free merch, keeps scouts from those schools coming to his game which benefits his teammates, ect. I am sure a lot it is him doing what his AAU coach and handlers tell him to do.

Really? Not saying your wrong, but that seems crazy to me. Just keep your list at 20 then.

Yes really. Building a brand is pretty much part of the NBA blue print to becoming a star. Social media attention and number of eyes on you matters and it can all be quantified with social media now. Just because something is over your head doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If you put it this articulately the first time your response would have made sense.

So is this the next 1000+ post thread?
