You're a little late '99.

However, I'm surprised Stanford made his final cut.

Not sure why BYU is there. I hear he's a religious kid, but don't think he's a Mormon. Fish out of water there.

 

[Brochacho]

He is Mormon.

I believe that he is, in fact, a Mormon and that is why BYU is on his list. I wonder if he will go on a mission prior to the NBA.

"...oh and Jabari? No sex while enrolled. So, um, sign here?"

Simply Googling him could have saved us all the time of reading your silly post and could have saved you from looking silly.

In the future don't be silly, use Google.

Sorry if reading three sentences was too much for you.

Kid is very good student. Duke was first on the list for a reason. Why wouldn't Stanford be high on the list? Best school playing high D1 level sports, nice campus, good weather.

Because elite recruits don't go there?

Those Lopez twins weren't exactly low rated recruits. It's an excellent school. When the BY did they "where would you send your son if he was a five star" Stanford was near the top of the list.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not questioning their academics. I'm questioning why a once-in-a-lifetime basketball recruit would choose The Cardinal. If it's academics, why not Harvard?

No athletic scholarships and a much lower level of competition.

No kidding he wasn't coming to Uconn! It saddens me as well as frustrates me that Uconn rarely gets these "Blue Chip" recruits. It seems like a Andre Drummond only comes once in awhile here.
