It is already known that Looney is a must get. PG Tyus Jones is a top 10 prospect from MN and has been offered by us. He and top 5 prospect Jahlil Okafor built a close relationship playing on the national team and the two have both said they want to play together in college, so whatever lucky school gets them will get a 2 for 1 deal. Surprised Calipari hasn't gotten hits mitts all over this yet. MU has not offered or seriously recruited Okafor yet, I don't know why. Wherever one goes the other will follow. Add in Looney and you have 3 Mickey D's who are all relatively local. Far-fetched, but it could happen. There are more top players in this class to get, but these two are the most exciting to think about.
If that happens I will sell my house, buy an RV, and follow the team around the country and campus.
Okafor is out of our league... I'm sorry to be Debbie Downer, but he just is.
Okafor is not looking at Marquette.
PTM, that gif is absolute genius. The best thing I have ever seen on the scoop.
why the negative remark? Marquette is one of the best basketball schools in the country!

My ballbag is so big that it needs it's own sling.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We need to get thru the offseason without any major mishaps before we can look too far ahead. Not to be a downer but I think Looney is a big long shot at best.
Especially since we'll have the Buzz Williams transfer to deal with.

I love the purple suit and matching shirt. Can you get your source to put together the same outfit in gold? Think of the TV shots if we got a MUScoop section decked out in these outfits in gold at the Bradley Center. It'd be rad, dude!
FWIW Buzz is watching Tyus Jones' Howard Pulley team tonight...though Jody Demling (Louisville recruiting writer) estimates there are 60+ programs represented watching their game tonight against Albany City Rocks.
