JJJ...

[LastWarrior]

Just saw this on Twitter via PT (aka FloorSlaps)...

Jajuan Johnson will talk with his mom this week and coach Wojo before making a decision. Duane Wilson, OTOH, says he's here to stay.

[NickelDimer]

Let the recruting begin. As others have said, how he does with current and incoming players will go a long ways towards what type of early impression he makes.

[BM1090]

My gut feeling,  which is worth nothing, says he stays.

[EnderWiggen]

I don't like the sound of that, but who knows, maybe Wojo can win him over

[Litehouse]

Just a guess, but I think we keep one of JJJ or Hill.  If one of them backs out, there's a ton of playing time for the other.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Maybe Wojo doesn't want him.  Remember, Buzz didn't want some guys.  Depends what type of offense he runs, etc.  I suspect he wants him, I also suspect Wojo doesn't want them all

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

For all we know JJJ just wants to make sure hes not the same as Buzz. You can look at it both ways.

[Pakuni]

Just a guess, but I suspect JJJ would have been having the same conversation with his mother had Buzz stayed.


And then there's this:

@AndrewGruman: Marquette guard Jajuan Johnson says he's "most likely" staying at the school.

Rob Jackson runs my son's AAU team and Marcus Jackson coaches it. I was at their practice last night and there were only a few other parents in the gym, plus Duane Wilson and Deonte Burton getting ready to workout after. Both told me that they are here to stay and that they thought JJJ was as well but he would have to see about the new coach.

This is all very good news

Great point.  Maybe he was set on transferring while Buzz was here.  Now that Buzz left, maybe JJJ wants to talk to his mom about changing his mind, that is, maybe he should stay.

This, since his pt was non existent.  I believe Hill will stay committed also and he is the real deal.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

What I have been hearing (source is NOT scoop) is that JJJ was transferring at the end of the season. It was part of the reason he get benched towards the end of the season.

I have been told that with Buzz gone, we actually have a very good chance to retain JJJ.

[Texas Western]

We want JJJ to stay and start

[Silkk the Shaka]

If Wojo's "turning offense to defense" philosophy from the presser holds true, JJJ will fit very nicely and likely see a large spike in playing time this year (from zero to xxx).

[PGsHeroes32]

So far over the years I really havn't truly been disappointed at a transfer(obviously Id prefer they didn't happen but none were anything to fret over).

I like everyone believe losing Hill would be terrible

But at the same time I still really think JJJ would be a big loss too. I think he just needs some damn PT.

This is the biggest reason why I thought Buzz was a fool. We were losing with Jake and Derrick regardless. Why not give the younger guys minutes...1. develop them 2. keep them happy O and 3. they are simply better.

Good riddance.

That is great news!! He's going to be a stud!

So the whispers about JJJ's grades were inaccurate?  If the rumors were false Buzz deserved even more criticism for not playing him.  Hopefully WOJ can convince JJJ to stay his upside his tremendous.

[Windyplayer]

It's easier to stay when you have one year under your belt and you start/build relationships with teammates. For the incoming class, your decision has to be largely based on the coach that recruited you, though I suppose you can connect with some guys on the team during your visit, and hell, the facilities and string of MU success are not too shabby either.

[THRILLHO]

Didnt he say turning defense into offense?

I don't know about the grades, I didn't ask. My guess is that it is hogwash.

[Litehouse]

It would be funny if the one year we don't have any transfers is the year Brett leaves.

[BrewCity83]

Brent is the only transfer this year.

[madtownwarrior]

that would be freaking awesome

It would be funny if the one year we don't have any transfers is the year Brett leaves.

[madtownwarrior]

and would love for Wojo to make the dance with "Buzz's team" that did not make the dance...
