The OP made specific reference to a supposed renewed interest in MU by the Stone camp, so there really can't be any sour grapes.  Regardless of how Stone feels towards MU, any interest would not be reciprocal.

He's not coming.
I disagree with you. If Stone was interested in us we would be highly interested in him.

Not happening guys. More baggage than an airport.

And hanging around Duke as long as Wojo did probably gives him more baggage handling experience than Delta.

Can we avoid this classic Badger practice of trotting out endless allusions to a kid's "baggage" and "character" when they are not interested in our school.  I'd prefer MU fans were not as predictable as Madison's.

Unless you can give some concrete information on said "baggage" it just comes across as sour grapes.

I would love it if Stone came to MU. I'm not trying to tear him down because he's not coming to MU. I'm just relating what I've been told.  Which is, he has expressed interest in MU lately and MU has said no thank you because he has people close to him who are looking to get paid.

Denver,

I don't doubt you, but hope you are wrong.  Interesting to know that the high and mighty badgers continue to be interested.

Does anyone remember a few years ago where a Spartan insider was posting on the Badger board that Buzz was willing to pay Brandon Dawson's handlers.....and then when completely silent when Dawson chose Sparty?    Be careful about the insinuations.

And then Izzo got an NCAA suspension for paying said handler for "coaching" at his elite camp after driving BD to and fro Lansing. Squirm-O-Meter check.

The few times I've seen stone he was really mature. I couldnt care less if he comes with handlers or ready to go pro. As long as he isn't doing anything illegal or hurting anyone I will consider him a good kid. Honestly, I think we have worst character issues on this team and definitely in years past.

Folks, this is a high school kid here. He has his virtues -- one of which probably is his ability to play basketball at a high level -- and his vices. He's no different than many of us when we were his age. Let him grow up.

If he comes to Marquette, God love him, we may have something very special in the works again. If he goes somewhere else, we should wish him well -- just not too well!

If he goes to Tech School, I hope he enjoys Madison!

Lets put this to an end right now.  Whether or not Stone is interested in MU, I don't know.  What baggage Stone has, I have no clue, sounds like the typical sour grapes to me.

But I will tell you unequivocally that Diamond Stone will not be attending MU.  I hope nothing but the best for the guy, but he will not play for Marquette no matter how interested he is(which I don't really think he's interested). 


Let's all just move on and focus on the what we have as a recruiting class next year and how much better the current team will be at the end of the season.

03eng, you've heard this from a reliable inside source (no need to share) or is this your informed speculation?  I was disappointed to read about supposed 'compensation' earlier in the thread.  Do you have any corroborating info on that little twist?

yeah, let's put this to an end right now by telling us how you know this unequivocally.

I can't share my source but it is ironclad.  I literally know nothing about compensation, no idea where that came from.

Honestly, I would if I could, but it's not worth the grief I would get.  I was loath to even post it but I figure we could just head this whole Stone bashing off at the pass.

Perfectly fine, thanks.  There are things I hear about MU that I don't share as well.  So glad that you haven't heard anything about compensation.  That would be very disappointing.

Seriously guys?  You can choose to believe me based on my history as a poster and association with the university or not.  You don't get to know how I or anyone else know what we know....because if we told you, guess what we don't get to know anymore.  What about my record on Scoop indicates I would literally make something up?

You guys are completely unbelievable, guess I keep this info to myself the next time.

I'm more referring to the various negative insinuations that get thrown under the "source" umbrella that are either blatantly fabricated or lazily passed around like how the class learned how serious Ferris' illness was.

You say judge you on your record on the board, which we should, and does substantiate your information to an extent. But for every one "ironclad source" that is valid, there's a dozen that fall into the "bo cooled on him" camp of bollocks.

Edited to add:

I'm especially reluctant to believe any unnamed source who has something negative to report about a player or situation. It's much to easy to "leak" that someone has a bad test score, or people don't like playing with RGIII, or Dez Bryant is a diva, or whatever to manipulate a situation to the benefit of whoever is doing the leaking.

So if I said my source was Wojo, that makes me more believable?
