Makes sense, smart move. Maybe KO can get Kemba, RIP or Ray to help him out. Or better yet Okafor to help him get a big we so desperately need.

This is technically a rules violation, according to the NCAA.

"[Article 13.1.2]: All in-person, on- and off-campus recruiting contacts with a prospective student-athlete or the prospective student-athlete’s relatives or legal guardians shall be made only by authorized institutional staff members. Such contact, as well as correspondence and telephone calls, by representatives of an institution’s athletics interests is prohibited except as otherwise permitted in this section."

Seems like you read that Patrick Ewing and AI article. Nice find :cool:

Kansas or Duke will likely make a run at him after Duval's decision. I wouldn't get your hopes up here.

I understand Duke...but doesn't Kansas have Derryck Thornton playing this upcoming year?

I'll take back every doubt I had about Kill and Chill if they land us this kid. We're going to look back one day and wonder what the staff was thinking not prioritizing him. This kid would instantly make up a good sum of the offense we lost from Jackson, he's ready to contribute now.

If Georgetown is going to send Iverson after him, Chillious needs to send Ray with a video of his game winner over Iverson in hand.

Malik Newman. He can play either guard spot.

I just don't see how he and Alterique can coexist. Gilbert would probably have to guard 2s and while he's strong and athletic that's a tough ask. Love Waters game and they're both pesky defenders, but they're the same height and now are in the same class.

I think there is zero chance he comes here, but we won a title with Bazz and Boat guarding 1's and 2's. If you can play, you can play. Boat, in particular, killed bigger guards.

They probably didn't prioritize him because KO and the staff got the feeling he didn't want to come here. Lets remember that they offered Waters well before they did MAL, and that was after Waters and MAL were on campus at the same time, its clear the staff showed interest in him from the beginning.

Actually was thought to say "UConn was a dream school" early in his HS career I think. Then the Dukes, UK's and UNCs started calling and it seemed that maybe KO was an after thought. No proof here just from what I read here on the BY during his recruitment.

There was something about UConn being his "dream school" in this 2014 blog from Borges. Not sure how convincing it actually is since he then goes on to talk about Duke: The New Haven Register Blogs: UConn Men's Basketball Blog: A few words with Tremont Waters, Tyler Dorsey
 
Ewing was in CT yesterday trying to lure Waters back into the fold.

I wonder where Waters ends up.

People on this board seem to get mad at KO if he prioritizes and misses (Diallo) and then if he recognizes there's little chance and so goes in a different direction (Waters). He literally can't win with some people.
