recruit on campus?

[New Era Warriors]

When I was walking back from the rec today I saw somebody walking with Jimmy Butler who I haven't seen before. He was definitely a recruit..any word on who this may be? I would assume he will be at the game tomorrow. He looked like he was about an inch taller than Jimmy.

So we have a description of a 6'7" male. 

Hmmmm....

[MU B2002]

Did he look like Jimmy?

[4everwarriors]

Pretty sure he's JMay's Dad. At least that's what I made out by reading Jimmy's lips.

[wyoMUfan]

His facebook says his family is in town visiting...

Hmmmm....

That narrows it down as far as people on campus goes, but not really as far as recruits go.

[New Era Warriors]

Didn't know his family was in town, it could have been his brother if he's 6'7''/6'8''.  The lady who is their academic advisor/tutor-I think her name is Adrian?-was with them too and I at first thought she was helping Jimmy with a "tour"

Maybe it was Trend Blackledge? I know he didn't finish his degree yet, and was still around MU last year taking classes.. just a thought.

Blackledge actually got his degree this past May along with the Three amigos and Burke. He was taking classes last year. My one friend is actually friends with Trend and I guess he is down in Utah living with Wes.

Could be newbill or Crowder as I think neither of them has visited on there
official visit yet.

Newbill's only 6'4" and Crowder's got long dreads...should be easy to eliminate them from consideration

[ZiggysFryBoy]

Buzz should sign Jimmy F*cking Butler's brother, younger brother, older brother, cousin, nephew, uncle, dad, grandpa, great-grandpa, and neighbor if they are nearly as good as Jimmy F*cking Butler is.

I saw Jimmy with the graduate assistant of the basketball team earlier today. My money's on it having been him, not a recruit. Usually if it's a recruit Buzz is the 1 giving them a tour, not a player and academic advisor.

[BrewCity83]

We have a 6'7" graduate assistant?

[Ari Gold]

I was on campus the other day, Thought I saw Liam. It looked like him and he had a pepsi sponsored backpack and standard MU athletic wear (sweatpants and MU windbreaker). It looks like he's lost a lot of weight.
Could It have been him?

[TallTitan34]

Liam is 7'-0", six inches taller than JB.

Not sure of his height, but yes, a tall graduate assistant...Buzz's former player at UNO, Jamie McNeilly.

I heard from a very reliable source today that Davante Gardner is visiting MU this weekend. He's in the 6'8" range. Apparently, he was pretty oveweight(like 300+ lbs.), but has lost some weight. There's a picture of him in the following article that was written this past December 3 and he definately looks like he shed some pounds.

touche But read that Jimmy was 6'8'' in shoes. If Liam was slouching...
I also wanted to know if I actually saw Liam or not

I saw Liam walking to class Thursday morning. Positive it was him. I was walking behind Fulce and Otule and they yelled out to him.

I've never fallen asleep faster than I did reading this thread.

According to this, McNeilly is only around 6 ft.

His UNO stats list him as 6'3''.

[Sponge Ruiner!]

Confirmed. Visiting with his mother.
