This only means another reason to hate Wisconsin on a UC/ Dayton level.

Well, that sucks. It seems like he'll be a good college player. It should be interesting to see how our bigs develop this year, as we'll need talented depth.
I still say if you're sharing something you've heard on this site, you should say where you've heard it from. Then we can each judge who to trust.
I could say I heard "rumors" about anything.

Not sure I agree with that. For example, we once had a poster who provided a lot of recruiting info before we had the recruiting sites like 247. His source was his XU roommate, who was a basketball manager. There was no way the poster was going to disclose his roommate's name or position on an internet site, unless he wanted his roommate to become his ex-source.
I have occasionally learned over the years that a few of our current and past posters do in fact have sources "close to the program". There's no way they are going to disclose who those sources are though.

I definitely don't have the best memory, but I don't remember the last 99% sure X recruit making a left turn fooling everyone.

Wasn't all about the other kid. Although it definitely helped.
Carlson believed the Big Ten was going to be a better place to showcase his skills, face better bigs, face better competition overall, etc. Gard was selling him on being Frank Kaminsky 2.0 (which is a bit of stretch but okay...), they were telling the kid he can start from Day 1, selling they are closer to home, and his friend going there is just the cherry on top.
Kids change their minds all the time.
I like the Mitchell kid, but I could also see Steele going with a 5th year just wanting someone who is ready to contribute now.Last edited by XU22; 09-18-2019 at 06:28 PM.

Don't anyone take this the wrong way. In fact I'm hesitant to say it. But could Carlson's choice have anything to do with Wisky's penchant for what I refer to as "whiteguy basketball" ? They always strike me as looking like rec league guys on steroids. Lots of passing cutting and low scoring boring games. And usually more than the usual # of caucasians for a power 5 team.
