Recruiting as of 3/15/24

[brewcity77]

Five Star PG Nolan Hickman decommitted from UK today. Wouldn't mind if we reached out.

I wonder if he's headed for G-League Ignite. They've only got 2 in the fold for next year.

Emoni Bates is decommitting from Mich St and re-opening his recruitment.  So there's that...

Joey must've wrote a letter to Izzo saying he didn't want to play with such a selfish basketball player who doesn't play the game the right way.

We missed out on the lesser Bates, maybe we'll have better luck with the Master Bates

No problem for Emoni - he can go play wherever Wojo is coaching and have Markus type usage. Where is that again?

Yeah, he and his brother sure look stupid now bailing on a Wojo led program.  Of course, you saw it too a mile away with that always sharp intuition of yours.   

[Jockey]

Bates will never play ball in college.

[wadesworld]

Yeah, he and his brother sure look stupid now bailing on a Wojo led program.  Of course, you saw it too a mile away with that always sharp intuition of yours.   

Yeah. They won so many more NCAA Tournament games than they did with Wojo.

Good call.  The Hausers were sure proven right.  One joined the defending national champions and got bounced in the first round.  The other joined "Mr. March" and got bounced in the play in game, while coming off the bench.

Maybe this also contributed to Brendan Bailey going pro, hey? I mean, if he didn’t want to deal with an already graduated Markus Howard being in the team, Bates being 2 years from ever playing with him and committing to a different school might’ve put the same fears in Bailey’s mind that Markus did.

LOL. BLM promised us Duke North. Wojo delivered something just short of Providence West.

Might’ve been better off trying to rip me for being incorrect when the narrative that’s being pushed is not that the Hausers were so clearly right about leaving MU if the Hausers had actually won some NCAA Tournament games since leaving MU. But do you. You’re great at it.

[🏀]

Newsflash: Hauser’s not as good at basketball as previously thought. More details at way too many threads on Scoop.

They were clearly right. They got out from under a program led by a guy who couldn’t coach (who you thought was a home run) and got to play for guys who will end up in the Basketball HOF. For anyone who plays basketball that’s a win.

Guess I missed all the amazing success they had that they didn’t have under Wojo.

[HutchwasClutch]

That’s true. Like Sam and Virginia winning the ACC. 

Also, Joey playing on a team that  knocked off three top 5 teams late season and played their way into the tournament, lost in OT to an eventual Final Four team, and not getting run out of the gym in an NCAA game.

I know these aren’t  spectacular accomplishments (major conference regular season champion is damn good for any program though), but that’s still way beyond what Wojo proved capable of.

So yeah, in just one season out from under incompetent coaching, they did more in team success than Wojo could have possibly delivered.

Lol.  Alright.

I guess if you want to flaunt losing the play in game and a first round game for a coach known as "Mr. March" and a program that was the defending championship then I guess you've proven my point.

BLM this is not the hill you want to die on.

I flaunted that point? No, I even acknowledged it for what it was.

Is the ACC title an LOL too? 
 

[willie warrior]

At least you got part of it right. The Hausers were proven right. The handwriting was on the wall several years ago about Wojo
 It took quite a while for you and the other blojoes to see it. Probably because you never were taught cursive
Im fact, several of the blojoes are still not recognizing it even now, and are still in the closet with it.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

I think the Hausers leaving MU showed a number of things.  First, Wojo isn't a great coach.  Second, Sam is a decent but not great player.  Third, Joey is overrated.

Blojoes and in the closet with it, huh?
