Bailey gained his early fame because there were a few pages written about him in "Season on the Brink" when he was in 8th grade. Knight went to watch him play an raved about what a good player he was. Feinstein wrote about it in the book.

And Bailey was at one time the greatest player in the storied history of Indiana high school basketball.
Looked it up: 3,134 points at Bedford North Lawrence. Still #1 all-time in Indiana.

DePaul just hired a new assistant who is a basketball trainer and connected to the Meanstreets AAU program. I thinks that's the connection with this kid.
I would say there is a 0% chance of this kid winding up at DePaul. No way this coaching staff is still there when he graduates HS.

And Bailey caused a change in the rules when he failed to pick up the ball to throw it in as time ran out in an NCAA tournament game. The rule now stops the clock on a change of possession. The opponent - Xavier!

This is dumb, but we're living in a world where dumb works. Depaul has been in the news 3 times this summer, which is roughly 3 times more that the past 20 years combined. Any publicity is good publicity. If Depaul needs to hire friends of recruits and get commitments from 8th graders to be a Top 150 team then I say go for it.
