Starting to hear from blue bloods. No visits planned. Likes Wisconsin because they are close. Likes Marquette because of their style of play.

Starting to hear from blue bloods. No visits planned. Likes Wisconsin because they are close. Likes Marquette because of their style of play.

Specifically likes that Marquette is a fast paced team....like the opposite of Wisconsin.

Also mentioned that he like the coaching staff at Marquette.

Johnson doesn't live far from the Badgers campus, and that allows him to frequently get to games.

When it comes to Wisconsin, Johnson said, "It is like home. I have a lot of support there. When I go to games the fans are always telling me to come there. It is nice to have them in my backyard."

Marquette has also made a favorable impression on Johnson, and he likes the way the Golden Eagles play.

"I like how they are a fast paced team," said Johnson of the Golden Eagles. "That is one of the things I am looking for, and I also like their coaching staff."

I hope Wojo is all over Johnson. Besides being a very athletic kid, he has a great sense of the court. I am very, very impressed with him as a player.

Wouldn't mind that pickup at all. Carton and Wilson are my top choices but like McKinney a lot.

Feels like a big summer for the program. In on some big names in the 2019 class. Need a grad transfer,  still room for a traditional transfer. Not to mention they need a new assistant. Get er done Wojo

[shoothoops]

As some of you may know, Wojo will be doing an in home visit soon with Mario Mckinney of St. Louis Vashon. Mckinney was recently named 2nd team St. Louis area all metro team. First team was EJ Liddell, Courtney Ramey, Carte'Are Gordon (SLU), Torrence Watson (Mizzou), Jericole Hellems (NC State)

Mckinney was named All State Missouri Class 4. (There are 5 classes, 4 second largest)

A lot of emphasis on guards, but we also need some serious pogo sticks.

Feels like that would be a big hurdle to overcome for Wisconsin, unless he's joining a team like their F4/F2 years where there were 2 NBA-caliber* players that could push the pace and win a game in the 50s, 60s, 70s, or 80s. (Spoiler: he's not)

They are only 2 NBA-caliber players short of being able to do that.

Wisconsin's best team ever  still played at a snails pace.......345th in adjusted tempo

Apparently I need to stay in the office more*, and have some acquaintance feel bad for me and hook me up with a gorgeous woman.

(*this is assuming that MrsFryBoy was not in the picture.  and stuff.)
