Any thoughts if this relationship might be strained by the STJ transfer?

Probably depends on circumstance and the reasons why Steve left. Seems like Parker has been nearby on just about every recruiting visit, and his relationship with Wojo is with the entire family, not just Steve.

I doubt it. I believe Wojo was Jabari's lead recruiter so it seems highly unlikely that a relationship could be strained by STJ transfer.

Maybe Giannis will pony up and pay for Kostas to walk on at MU just like Juice was going to do for Toddler, ai'na?

Or maybe Wojo could adopt him.

Means about as close to nothing as you could imagine. If Kostas' college choice comes down to his older brother tweeting a generic positive thing than we might as well not recruit anyone.

Kostas is still very raw. Go for Hauser!

He is a perfect pick-up for the Badgers, Red-shirting is big at UW.  They have 3 kids this year redshirting and it has helped in the maturity of there game.  Kostas needs another year to work
on his game, but his upside is huge.

Rivals released their updated 2016 class top 150. Still no Kostas for now


No Hauser either in top 150

Hauser not bring in the top 150 is just another reason that Rivals is one of the worst recruiting services out there.

Rivals is pretty bad. I like 247 and as much as I dislike ESPN, I do think they do a pretty good job with their recruiting rankings.

They don't even have us listed with Cassius Winston when I know for a fact his final three are MSU, Michigan, and us.

ESPN has gotten a lot better in the past year or so. Dedicated a lot more time to scouting.

This update doesn't really mean a lot - based on the high school season mostly. And guys can develop very quickly at this age.

They will have a better feel for these guys after the summer season where guys are playing against their peers rather than some slow HS team whose center is 6'3".

If you noticed, a lot of the guys they had listed are being recruited by Mid-majors or less. That won't be the case after the fall update.

Rivals does tend to be a little behind with each update.

Hey, what do you have against 6'3 centers for their high school teams?!?  I take umbrage.

We almost have to buy into the potential.

He's right in our backyard with a brother on the Bucks. If he blows up and we didn't make a run at him that would be awful.

I think there is a far better chance he turns into a star than a complete bust. So bank on him being somewhere in between.

Okay, if you had to choose between Coffey and Antetokounmpo, who would you take?

Coffey.

But it ain't coming down to that lets be honest.

There is room for both if we can even win the Coffey bidding anyways

Marquette has a good shot at Coffey. I wouldn't lay down any money that he ends up here, but it's definitely possible.

They are both 6'7" perimeter guys, so...

Are they both perimeter guys because they are both great shooters? If so, I want 'em both!

Neither has the muscle nor has developed the game to play inside.  And I think that we need a PG in next year's class.  How many shooters who don't have the handle to be a SG can you have in one class?  Don't we want Hauser, too?  If we take two doesn't one have to be Hauser, if we want to get Joey Hauser later?

Coffey as of now can play a multitude of positions. Kostas cannot. Just because they are the same size doesn't mean much. You could have both if they both hVe interest and are good enough

What's Coffey's health status right now? I believe that he tore his ACL sometime around November so will he be able to participate in AAU this summer? I wonder if him being injured and Wojo getting on him early could be a blessing in disguise.
