Per MU athletics Twitter. 530 on a Friday... Nice timing.

no accident of course.

Said this was coming months ago.

For all of the complaints about our PR department, they actually did well here.

No kidding.

Guessing Lockett announces for MU by Monday.

[Jay Bee]

Hope they are restricting him from going to SMU!

Hope they are restricting him from going to SMU!

And the entire Pac 12, because we played a school from there once.

[Markusquette]

Can't say I'm disappointed but I wish him the best.  Guessing Lockett may be coming here which would be great.

Durley won't join Golden Eagles next season
               



Marquette has announced that center Aaron Durley of Fort Bend Bush High School in Texas has been granted a release from his National Letter of Intent with the Golden Eagles men’s basketball team and will not join the program for the 2012-‘13 season.

It would be great if every school listed UW-Madison on the no transfer list

Wow, only 7 posts 30 minutes?  I guess it's not nearly as interesting when it's real information.

[Blackhat]

Not that surprising.   The kid never played his senior year of high school.    Very unlikely he'd make the transition to the Big East similar to Mbao and Roseboro.


I don't know why they keep offering these massive projects.   Get it done already Buzz.   Get that legit big it's been four years now.

I hope the kid finds some place that is a good fit for him.   Good luck, Mr. Durley. 

[warthog-driver]

This one was all too clear once the coach made his comments. Courtney & Buzz go back. Gotta think Courtney's statement was a tee up for today's announcement. No surprise

There's a reason why companies dump info on Fridays around 5.

Agreed.... He said all the right things and truly wanted to be a part of the team.... Things didn't work out, but he's seems like a good kid.

Could see this coming from day one.  Agree with Stone, it's time Buzz starts signing talented bigs.  Let's go.  If we want to really compete for the top, we need great bigs.

People are so funny.  Yea Buzz make sure you get some burger boys too, since it's so easy.

Right, because he's so busy looking for untalented bigs. Do you know anything about recruiting and how it works or do you make silly statements like this all the time?

But wait... I thought the worst travesty in college basketball history was Uthoff waiting 2 days to go basically wherever he wanted?

Meh...

[Otule's Glass Eye]

And the question of who is not attending is answered. Until next season. Or earlier than that.

[tower912]

According to IWB and Dodds, with it looking like Otule will be granted a 6th year, Durley didn't see any playing time coming his way until his third year at MU.

Meh...

should you be watching re-runs of mike and mike?

[Otule's Glass Eye]

Time to update the scholarship table take out Durley and put in Lockett.

Letting someone out of their NLI offends you?    Is this another one of those things that badger nation has no frame of reference on so you go to your default mode that (A) Bo is a saint and the swing is the greatest offense ever and (B)  it happened at MU so it is by definition evil?

Figurin' on at least one more.
