Unfortunately, he doesn't speak often enough.  But I'm cool with that.

He chooses his spots to speak, which I appreciate.  Glad to hear the latest words of BD.
If he chooses to speak again, can he give us a time frame for a commitment, if there is one.

Meyer has been right 76% of the time for 2014 recruits and has hit 10 out of 11 so far in 2015.

Either he has sources or he is a really good "wild guesser".....

He also was the first guy to predict JJJ to MU when others thought he was staying closer to home....

Obviously he must have pretty good sources, and for the rest he must be a pretty good guesser.

Ds is a solid MU lean...LK commitment only helped.  If Buzz is here..DS will be a warrior. And I expect Buzz to be here.
Big Daddy speaking is like Frank THomas hitting. When it happens, people stop and take note of it.

Thanks BD.

Diamond and family are in da house for the Nova game. Papa Stone is sportin' pink. Hopefully we can be +8 or better for them this second half. Maybe guard the 3 point line could be a startin' point for that.

24/7 indicates that Diamond is warm on four schools, Duke, Marquette, UCLA and Wisconsin.  What I like about the predictions is three of the last four have come from recruiting analysts that specialize in Duke recruiting, and Duke is one of the four schools....

The only North Carolina prediction came from a NC recruiting guy.  Back in early December.

You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
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.

"BigDaddy"... seems a strange username for Buzz to choose for himself.

I always refuse to get optimistic about this sort of stuff but Duane's redshirt and the fact that watching him in warmups makes you think he could play leads me to hoping he just wanted to be with Diamond for 4 years. I really really hope this guy comes to MU. I am starting to get optimistic

Doubt Diamond would be here for more than 2 years in the first place, but even with the redshirt Duane would only get three years max if Stone came and exhausted his eligibility.

Duane's redshirt had nothing to do with Stone. He was injured..missed a bunch of time. He wanted to play but knew he was so far behind that this would be a wasted year...... so he agreed to redshirt....I'm sure he wishes he could be out there but now will have 4 full years to play instead of wasting a half a year of playing spot minutes as a frosh....

Doubt Duane's redshirt has anything to do with Stone.

If you aren't sure about BigDaddy, just check his posting history. He doesn't post often, but when he does, he is right. Someone with definite insider information.

No offense to BD but in reviewing hie recent posts he has had a few things wrong. From Wilson being ready for UW game to the starting lineup for the season. He knows some stuff but not sure if he is my guru on here.

I'm on record with posting a few AAU conversations last summer where I had heard Diamond was looking forward to being "the man" at Domincan and getting out from Duane's shadow. I haven't heard much since, but it got me thinking that maybe with Dominican's embarrassing struggles against real competition this year, Diamond is missing Duane's talents far more than he ever imagined. The Germantown/Dominican game was so beyond brutal. Diamond had virtually no help at all and the beating never stopped. When he had Taylor and Wilson a few years back, they could compete with anyone. I'm hoping a reunion is in the cards.

I hope he is right, though I did check his posting history and he said Duane would be cleared to play by the Wisco game and probably play by IUPUI.

Also said Nunn was a solid MU lean.

Definitely has great info, but no one is right all the time.....though some of us are clearly ahead of our time.   ;)
