He meant Hamilton in 2014 (next year) with Daniels staying and playing xbox stuff together.

My response had nothing to do the Xbox thing. It had to do with ctbasketball's comment that the Prince Ali commitment was a sign that the staff was concerned about Hamilton's commitment.

Before everyone lacerates my throat, I speculated. With the current condition of Hamilton not signing a LOI and then a commit from a highly touted 2015 guard, I felt like it was a normal speculation.

I do want Hamilton to be a Husky. I do want Ali to be a Husky. I'm not trying to sabotage everyone's fun.

No one is questioning your desire we get both. It's connecting the dots between the two recruits that has us all scratching our heads. They are in two completely different classes. There's absolutely no connection between them. Ollie simply is kicking ass on the recruiting trail with his attention on the 2015 class.
 
Strange quote from the Sun Sentinel article, or at least it struck me as strange.

"Ross said he went with Ali on his visit to Storrs, Conn., the nearly 11,000-person village which is home to UConn."

Unless we are talking about some third-world, thatched-hut community, who uses the word "village" in this day and age?

Town/community would have been better. I think that is what he was trying to convey.
 
"Village" - has become a hot buzzword. You know..."it takes a village".

When did that happen during the game? I missed it, but I've seen that picture popping up all over the place.

Early/mid-way throug the second half, Shabazz did some of his fancy dribbling, lulled the IU defender to sleep, and pulled up lightning quick for a jumper just inside the arc and nailed it.

Fly like a butterfly sting like a bee, what better combination than Prince Ali and Coach Ollie. First off, I can't believe no one dropped this classic Ali quote! Secondly, I watched my son's favorite show, How I met your mother, and the whole show was done in rhymes. Although it annoyed the h*ll out of me, it did get me primed for dropping that classic quote.

We welcome all 10 of your toes, PA! Can't wait till you get here.

Reading his quotes, I love this kid already. I'll take 10 Ali's who want to earn their minutes over the ones that are looking for a program and coach that promise them.

"Floats like a butterfly stings like a bee " is the official boxer Ali's quote, but your sentiment is correct. Prince seems t have a scorer's mentality and major hops.

Scout 78, Rivals 75, 247sports 55, ESPN 82 grade. Either way we got ourselves a nice player.

Actually #45 on 247, #65 on their composite ranking....

Just a bit of info for what it is worth

The AD at the school Prince Ali attends is a big Syracuse guy--No info as to how much he tried to get the kid to the Cuse but I have to think that there must have been some influence there
