Perkins Update (not going to get a UK offer)

[SeattleHoop]

I dont see why your having so much trouble with my post. I almost feel like your giving me a hard time for the hell of it. I never said anything about our winning success or our # of national championships. I'm specifically referring to recruiting success. Recruiting at a high level and winning games are two different things. We recruit at a high level but there are a number of schools that consistently recruit at a higher level. Part of the reason could be location. Arizona, Florida, Duke, UNC, UCLA to name but a few all seem to have much more apprealing location. Thats all I am saying...Is it really that radical?

That was the worst audio... was there even a mention of UConn?

 

[huskiesnyc]

He dropped 4 "right ons" in the last 18 seconds

I'm guessing you haven't been to Durham.

I know what you are saying- if one million years ago when UCONN was founded- had they put it in Stamford (as an example) we would be more firmly attached to the NYC market geographically. Not a crazy comment just a statement of fact. No reason to get ur panties in a wad.

Seems like a level-headed kid.

Durham is a hell hole. I would take Storrs every time. The only thing going for Durham is that they have better weather.

Not that it has a big impact on sports, but the Ivy whiffed on some locations too. Yale, Penn, and Columbia in particular. Dartmouth depends on how you feel about isolation.

Well when the Ivies were established the Northeast was pretty much where everything and everyone was. There was no California, Florida, etc.

Some stuff about Perkins separating his shoulder.

I know that the crystal ball predictions on 247sports are not to be taken all that seriously (although I do think it's a pretty cool feature), but every single writer who had previously chosen Kentucky for Perkins has changed their vote to Gonzaga in the last 24 hours.

I think you mean UCLA instead of UK, and I think all of the other guys are just falling in line with what Meyer predicted in this case

 

[Burnsbros23]

Seems like Gonzaga leads, But hopefully he visits and Ollie is able to make up some ground. His dad seems to be running his recruitment.

 

[Husky15]

I think the reason for Perkins to Gonzaga is because ucla is going hard after McLaughlin

Right on
