Flurry of picks for UK here. Kinda interesting.

Just took an official visit to UK.

Right, but wasn't he considered an IU lean for most of the summer?

He's their plan C after Quade green and Trae young

Looks like Young is going to Oklahoma, and Green is expected to choose either Duke or 'Cuse.

Then it would make sense that they're going to put the press on waters to commit quickly

They don't need to. The best suny is on long island.

That just is quite a broad insubstantial statement.

UNLIKE Connecticut (and maybe most like the UC system in California), SUNY has a very very diverse set of campuses with lots of strong advancements throughout the system. I am not sure what long island SUNY you are referring to; but, UBuffalo and Binghamton are well-known for high ranking in specific disciplines. As noted above, IF you are into the CSNE distinct college in Albany (*now separate from UAlbany), you are in the unique leader in the world in Nanoscience. etc etc.

Who has the best Pharmacy? Who has the best Engineering? Who is the best if you want to get to Med School? etc

This is 4 Flagship Universities and 17 (I think) SUNY College campuses. Including Geneseo or Fredonia or New Paltz ... which all get high marks.

In NYS, if you truly aren't from an advantaged background, it is FAR simpler to go to a Community College & then transfer into the BIG U. Particularly in some specific disciplines. It is a well-thought out system and works. (and like upstate ... I have an affiliation)

Announcing his decision tomorrow.

Indiana.

 

[husky99]

IU is the rumor

 

[navery12]

I've felt like it'll be Indiana for a while (like at least 2 days) but I'm switching it and going Georgetown

 

[husky99]

 

[superjohn]

Why would he pick Georgetown over Indiana?

Still better than JT3.

 

[Dynasty]

That is what the liberal left does today! They cry out for "open and and honest" discussions about race, and as soon as you have a differing opinion you are called a "racist".

Take it to the cesspool...

 

[intlzncster]

Still better than JT3.

Maybe he prefers the city. Bloomington ain't for everybody.

highly intelligent

 

[JimHurley]

Tremont is going to be one hell of a college player. I'm happy with what we have for guards but he would have been great to get.

 

[B1GEast]

Look like it is G Town. The young man had a nice list, hope he does well

Awesome. I hope he goes there and helps resurrect that program.

Apologies if this was previously posted.

New Haven’s Tremont Waters to announce college decision on Wednesday

I sort of understood Duke over UConn cause it's his "dream school" (gross), but Indiana? Georgetown? I don't get it.

You really think he's going to commit here when we have Adams, Gilbert, Vital, and MAL?

We stopped recruiting him once we got MAL. And while I agree with you re: Indiana (why go there over UConn?), it's entirely reasonable to pick Georgetown for two reasons: Location (some kid want to go to an urban school) and academics (as much as we've improved, we're not in Georgetown's league just yet). This kid has stressed academics since day 1, so the Hoyas make a ton of sense for him.
