I like the title.

They will be tough gets for sure. So much is up in the air. Soon the dominoes will have to fall and hopefully our way.

I'm surprised Zags' headline wasn't:

"Battle thinking of reclassifying to 2015 to form a package deal with Briscoe, but only if Kanye performs at midnight madness at the right school".

Or something like that..

@GiveNGoBball: Tyus Battle, Class of 2016 SG from Gill St. Bernard's (NJ), will release his top 12 schools tomorrow on his Twitter, per his Father.

 

[husky99]

We should make the 12, but I do not think we lead....

 

[Chief00]

To me top 12 doesn't say much - when you get to 3-5 then it gets meaningful.

 

[mauconnfan]

I am giving up on Top Anythings........just wait and see!

This stuff can drive you crazy. I'm stepping back

 

[Fishy]

I think it's guaranteed that we make his top 12, but but it's likely a three or four horse race and we're outside of that group.

I think it's Duke and Kentucky.

We're not getting him.

We're not getting him.

We'll see how he feels about that in April when we're celebrating No. 5.

Probably about the same.

 

[scotty0330]

Looks like went with 11 and yes UCONN made it

 

[Silk31]

Battle just cut his list to 7 and we made the latest cut as well. Going up against some stiff competition here though so keeping the expectations in check

[CardiacAndre7]

Sooooo glad Kentucky isnt on the list

 

[husky99]

My guess is duke

 

[SirHypeAlot]

sorry squid!

 

[kansashusky]

Curious what would happen if Duke lands Jayson Tatum? Same position and skill set.

There's still a Long way to go in this one, don't sweat anything

I'm not too sure. IMO Tatum is more of a 3 and Battle is more of a 2, at least in college (they both could be 2s in the NBA). Therefore, they could theoretically play on the wing at the same time and cause matchup nightmares. Heck, in a dream world, both come do that at UConn and combine to replace a departed Hamilton after a 2016 National Title
