U17 and U18 recruiting target observations

Toad Suck is an area, not an incorporated town. There used to be a ferry there. It ran across the Arkansas River between Faulkner and Perry Counties. I used to live in the Perry County side. So my mailing address was Bigelow. If I'd lived in the Faulkner County area of Toad Suck my mailing address would have been Conway. Do you or have you lived there or near? As you wrote, Fayetteville, AR is three hours away from there. I think Chrystin lives in Little Rock or a suburb of Little Rock.

Thats right---when i was at UALR--a fellow 'worker" lived in Toad Suck--and his mailing address was Conway--my how that developed-- From what locals told me it was called Toad Suck---a suck was a whirlpool --and frogs were in abundance in the area. North Little Rock--lived up on the plateau near Fort Root and watched a Tornado jump over our home and took out a number of homes in North L.R. POW camp there.
Lived in Pew Laski county--

So much for those Duke vs. The Titanic analogies.

The decision -- after she visited Duke -- was easy, but getting there was interesting and certainly not so linear. That's probably the case more often than not, but this was still interesting

In HoopGurlze, Mr. Olson still had these four schools listed as potential favorites. (He just added "the also considered"and had "considering" for ages, even though there's been no movement on the Irish end for months.)

ALSO CONSIDEREDConnecticut Huskies, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Utah Utes, Tennessee Lady Vols,

Jade ended up taking OV's here: Texas Tech, Tennessee, South Carolina and Texas A&M before visiting Durham, North Carolina. Raoul compiled a pretty good list of her comings and goings, although he had to add an addendum.

Seems like Duke came in with the perfect last wave in this case.

Given that Tennessee is the only constant in these lists, it would be interesting to follow the ebbs and flows with Ms. Williams.

Good luck to Jade and all the other Duke commits. They're all going to an excellent academic university for sure. But you just have to wonder about whether the goings-on of the past few years had any (at all?) bearing on their decisions.

Really wish UConn was an "unknown" team for Boothe and Farley-Clark

Updated finalists for 2017 WBB players (OVs highlighted) • Cooks & Patterson will soon take final visits • added a few with partial info

I read somewhere that Farley-Clark was also looking at Mississippi State and Pittsburgh, which is almost as "huh?" a combination as St. John's and LSU.
(Although, Patterson's final four of SJU, UVA, Tenn and ND certainly are a wide-ranging group.) Variety is the spice of life!

Along with Sidney Cooks (and I guess Boothe, though her old list was very much the usual), its nice to see top-ish recruits have a totally different list of finalist than the usual ones. Farley is #19 ESPN, #14 PN, #36 BS, possibly a McD AA with those "rankings".

True Story.. I didn't realize Krispy Kreme was a "Southern" brand until I moved to Connecticut and asked for it and people were like "Uh, don't you mean Dunkin Donuts?!"..

There use to be a few of them in my area in NY but once Tim Horton's showed up Krispy Kreme was old news. I think Tim Horton's is Canadian and with it being closer to us than the mason dixon line it kind of makes sense.
