Maybe he thinks Buzz left for that job as some reported he would!

Yes, noted somewhere here recently.  Stone will be doing his due diligence searching for a team.

No. He'll see the floor but if this season is any indication with the freshman playing time, he's going to have to bang with Luke to earn it.

That isn't going to be easy for both of them.
Which is good for us.

It was a sarcastic post because some seem to think that was the breaking point. The reality is that Stone was never coming to MU.

Willie!  Are you watching?!  Buzz is listening to you!  We have Pierce coming on board, and now we may get Fischer, a 7' from Europe or somewhere, Ellenson, and Stone!  In 2 years we could have 5/13 scholarships to guys 6'9" or taller!  Yippee!


What will your opinion be next week?

2 crystal balls for Marquette and one of them is Jerry Meyer. Not definitive by any stretch of the imagination but I like the trend

Imagine having Fischer, Stone and Pierce all up front.  Willie's wet dream.

Meyer predicted Stone to MU before Fischer announced he was coming here.

A Stone and Fisher twin towers would be 100x Gardner and Otule.

No word on that but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't until next Fall.

Possibly not even until the Spring after that.

Perhaps a touch of hyperbole.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Don't forget  Ellenson

If something positive about that recruitment doesn't come out soon, I think we probably can.  Getting Fischer is more of a determent to getting Ellenson than getting Pierce or Diamond are.

He cannot sign until next fall so even if he decided on MU tomorrow that doesn't stop Calipari regularly slipping him and his family c-notes until signing day in November.  So, might as wait until next fall, if not the spring signing date.

Buzz needs to treat JJJ better if he has any chance at all of getting Diamond Stone.

Why?  Are they close?  I thought Duane Wilson's would matter more regarding this.

Agreed. It's not as if Gardner and Otule ever helped us get to the Elite Eight or anything.
