He now has listed over 12 schools.  he will not be a jayhawk.  My guess, Texas if Aldridge goes pro.

 

Aldridge did declare for the draft.

All kinds of stuff on the IU front:

 

--The #9 rated JUCO player in the nation (6-6 240 lb) Mike White visited Bloomington this weekend and gave a verbal commitment to play for Sampson. He'll sign on Wednesday.

 

--Vaden will be going to UAB w/ Mike Davis Jr. (never played) to play for Mike Davis

 

--DJ's still undecided, but there's no reason to believe he'll be leaving. Cem Dinc was believed to be transferring, and he's staying also.

 

--Both the incoming recruits Davis signed (Bassett and Keeling) are intending to come to IU in the fall.

 

--And KS' assistant coaches are Ray McCallum and Jeff Meyer. The third assistant has yet to be named.

Arch?

Arch?

 

Not sure. We've both seen it on message boards, but I don't know.

Class of 2007 PG Chris Wright of Washington D.C. (former N.C. State verbal) has re-opened up his recruitment following Herb Sendek leaving for Arizona State, and talks about the Illini as one of the teams he is interested in. He is 6'1, 190....and a 5 star prospect in the class of 2007 (#16 ranked player overall).

Never heard of the guy, 08 is along time away.

 

Is he a hair care product or a basketball player?

That Kevin Gray is a player.

I love how 5'8 guys are projected as PF's.

Fox 4 in KC says Darrel Arthur will announce very soon. they say it's Texas and Kansas, with KU in the lead.

 

This means he will be a longhorn :banghead :banghead

KS may want to take Gordon from Bruce Almighty, Sampson will keep his borders closed.

Not too piss off any Illini fans since I think Gordon has a very firm verbal to ILL, but there is talk of KS hiring his Dad, Eric Gordon Sr. at IU.

 

Reason being, IU's top assistant Jeff Meyer coached Gordon Sr. back in the 80's and they are very close friends. I know Meyer already has plans to try and get in on Gordon, so we'll see just how strong of a commitment he has to Illinois.

this kind of speculation does not bother me at all. it's natural, considering gordon is from indiana and indiana has a new coach. sampson would not be doing his due diligence as a coach if he did not make an effort. however, at the end of the day i'm confident gordon will be an illini.

 

i do admit that i'm not overly excited about the prospect of a year of hand-wringing over all of this.

Well Mike White officially signed his LOI today.

Is Jordan's kid any good?

That's what I've heard. Apparently Georgetown and ISU are in the running for him, but it might even be worth it for the exposure and having him as a donor. Ya never know.

Jeffrey Jordan is actually pretty good himself. He's an 07 PG, 6'1 160, nothing flashy, just distrubutes the ball and is pretty athletic. Before all is said and done, I could see him ending up at a mid-major, or walking on at UNC. If his game blossoms like his dad's did around senior year in high school, he could end up at a high major program. Marcus, class of 09 has shown alot of early talent, but it's still 4 years away from seeing him in college.

I don't see Jordan's kid going to Iowa State ever. He will be at UNC as a walk on.

ks will have no problem outrecruiting bruce almighty.

IF you say so

I don't see Jordan's kid going to Iowa State ever.  He will be at UNC as a walk on.

 

 

There was a connection between him and WM. It was mentioned somewhere that he had Georgetown, Iowa State and Kentucky among his top choices. Don't shoot the messenger.
