Herro go again

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Word has it that my friend Cheesy will have something to say about this tomorrow.  We can only hope!  There were a lot of people on this board all over him when discussing the chance Herro could possibly do this and maybe open up a path back to MU.  It is now a possibility and we can only hope it comes to fruition.  This guy may be a prep genius at predicting these things and deserves our utmost respect going forward.

Giving yourself a reach around: impressive.

many there seem to think this was all about Carolina skating and now he's going to Chapel Hill

We'll wait patiently to find Cheesy's login credentials and report back.

From buckyville:

"But what pisses me off more than anything is that's its becoming crystal clear the Roy Williams thinks he can come into this state any time he wants and flash the old UNC logo and sign our best players. Koenig was able to resist it but not Tokoto or or probably Herro in this instance. And why? It's not like there are hundreds of players out there from around the country in UNC more traditional recruiting areas. What does he think he takes advantage of recruiting against UW? In the past it was obvious by my Lord didn't we beat them the last time we clashed in the tournament?  On a team with Tokoto on it? Reminds me of a Bible parable "There was once a poor man who had a single lamb. The lamb wasn't just livestock to the poor man. He let the lamb drink from his cup and eat from his. It was a member of his family. There was a rich in the same town who was having a feast for a friend of his. Rather than take one his own lambs to butcher for the feast, he simply took the poor man's only lamb." Sheesh! It's like he does this to rub our noses in it."

It's just so beautiful over there.

That is priceless.

It's going to be very entertaining beating Bucky in the coming years with the strength of our program once again trending upwards.  They have no commitments in the Class of 2018 now.

They just got a commitment last week from Joe Hedstrom, an unranked center out of MN who was offered by Utah, Boise State, South Dakota, North Dakota, North Dakota State, Cleveland State, Columbia, Denver, and Loyola Marymount.  Impressive.

[Hards Alumni]

What is pretty funny is that a lot of people here think that we would be gracious if this happened to us.

In our midst, there would certainly be a lot of childish responses.

Sure, I'm going to revel in their loss, but maaaaaaaaaaybe understand that a lot of our fan base would respond like the Badger fans have.

They also convinced him to walk on his first year. I will never get how Bucky gets so many guys who could get full rides at smaller schools to walk on for a year or more.

I don't know. When we've had players transfer or decommit in the past I know there are a lot of "we'll be better without him" type posts, but I don't remember anyone attacking their character or saying they were too dumb to go to Marquette.

Ahh, didn't realize he was walking on.  Very selfless of Hedstrom to pay his tuition for a year while Joey Hauser and Tyler Herro get their 2 available scholarships for the class of 2018...

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Ahh, didn't realize he was walking on.

It's a "four for five" deal. Walks on his first year (and likely redshirts) and has been promised a scholarship starting in his second year. He might just get the scholarship outright now that Herro is gone.

I remember running over to Cudahy Hall in 1997 and logging on to a VAX machine and torching LeDaryl when he de-committed.

It's probably a good thing the MU-WI game is in Madison this year, otherwise I'd be emailing the Pep Band the sheet music for a certain Foo Fighters song...

Sounds like dey gotta nother Kaminsky headin’ up der, hey?

[UNC Eagle]

UNC looks at a lot of guys , but they put out few real offers.  Lots of recruits use their interest to leverage a real offer from some one else. That might be the case with Herro. Either way I don’t see Herro as a guy fitting into the MU program. The common trait of all the Wojo recruits is they are all team oriented players.

Dont worry, once they lost Hauser they had a whole thread listing why Marquette sucks and their superiority. Head to head record recently was conveniently left off.  They are doubling down now.

One difference between the UW and MU fanbases is that we don't labor under the misconception that one must be a rocket scientist to play basketball here.

[TedBaxter]

If we lose out on Grimes, we would absolutely take Herro if he walked through our door.

Seriously, don't be stupid.

You might, but Wojo wouldn't.  That ran it's course long ago.

I wouldn't be so sure.

[Freeport Warrior]

Many of us called the decommit in July. His dad was talking about it in gyms all summer. Dad never liked the WI commit; always thought is was stupid and way too early. But I knew the "Herro wasn't an academic fit" excuses would start up. They aren't completely wrong, but they let in far less academically accomplished players. The facts are that he did have a low initial ACT, but he increased it significantly and was completely on track. Underbelly stuff that Bucky will never acknowledge is that a few of their recent stars not named Kaminsky told Herro UW wasn't the place for two-and-done NBA players to thrive, ie. coming here will not help your NBA dreams. These guys will deny this all day long because of the PR, but these guys think WI stunted their development. The Trevor Anderson transfer did not help. The missing on Joey did not help. Missing on Laszewski did not help. Herro's friendship with Tokoto did not help. And if the Bucky community is honest with themselves, Herro is just not a WI system guy. He's a pull-up from 24 with 29 seconds left on the shot clock just because he's feeling it, kind of guy. He's also not particularly interested in playing lock down D. Just not a Bucky guy. My phone was blazing last night, but this certainly put a smile on my face. My guess is Kentucky, but that is all it is.

I watched him this summer a couple times. He reminded me of a really good tight end who also plays basketball. Athletic, runs floor well and puts in maximum effort. Would seem like the perfect UW system guy to develop.

Bucky fan tears are just so delicious.

And will likely be a pain in our ass for three years after a redshirt year and a freshman year where he looks lost. It’s the Badger way.

[mu03eng]

My guess is Kentucky, but that is all it is.

My guess is UNC and it dropped now because it looks like UNC cleared any NCAA threats. I think Kentucky is likely option 1B.
