Sandy will contribute this season.....just concentrate on his assignments and keep his head clear.

He plays good D. There's always room for that. 

[mu-rara]

This seems like a more low-level summary on Lewis to me. 

And he acknowledges that others could answer more completely in the 1st sentence.

Must go after Butch Lee's son Matt Lee before it is too late!

True that, he is a legend here

2017 Darryl Morsell, SG - Offered

2018 Courtney Ramey, PG - Offered

2019 Matthew Hurt, PF - Offered

[jsglow]

Thanks Sultan/brew.  One quick question.  Are all reasonably within the 'realistic' criterion I committed us to early on?  Remember, no 1/100 shots.  Just 'real' recruits.

[GGGG]

I think Lewis is a strong possibility.  (Miller has him going to MU on Crystal Bowel).  X. Tillman and John obviously since we are finalists.  MU has been following French pretty closely.

I don't know how much interest there is in Fernando.  (Wondering about academics there.)  I think D. Tillman is an insurance policy at this point.

I also should have added the center from Australia who I think looks like a possibility.

[jsglow]

Made many of the changes and I do see some of your suggestions brew but some of those guys have very long lists.  When we hear something more.......

We've been following Nwora closely. Same goes for Lawrence and Samuels. While I only think we'll take one wing, I do think we're legitimately after all of them.

Hurt is the one I'm not sure on. I definitely think the Marquette interest is legit, but it's very early in his recruitment and this kid could end up courted by all the blue bloods. Him and Days alone would virtually guarantee a top-5 class.

It must be first come, first serve at the small forward position.  Since Lewis just got offered, they must be not to confident on the other 3.  Thoughts?

Not the way recruiting works.

If you only offer one guy at each position, you have no chance whatsoever.

I think it's just early. I do feel Lewis earned the offer with his play. I'd almost include Malik Williams in this group, but am not sure we have a real chance.

I'm not sure the ratings agree, but I think Nwora may be head of the pack. His size and shooting seems like the type of combination Wojo would just love, and I think he's really helped himself this summer. I'm less confident of how serious MU is with the two Expressions Elite players.

That said, I could see taking Nwora and one of the other two if those commits were ready first. But if they took say Nwora and Lewis, it would really make a true bruiser a priority. Not sure Nwora could play the five, despite his height.

It would be great if we could sign Lewis and Nwora. They would be an interesting combination on the floor.

It seems the Badgers do not put out offers all over place.  They go after a very few and if they do not get them, they go for Plan B.  I think Al was the same
way, did not put out alot of offers.   Herro and Hauser are by far the #1 recruits for Wisky and MU.  I am not sure Whisky has put out another offer for 2018.
For 2017, they seemed to get the players they wanted from the start, which is great way to recruit.

And in 2016 they were scrambling for leftovers in the spring....

Alright, alright, you win brew.  I added a couple more.  That list is so long that Ners should be on it.

I know that JB had hoped I'd do AAU stuff but that's above my pay grade.  But I do have an idea.  Maybe we should list the TOP (and I mean top) targets in a special color.  I've used red for 'updated'.  Thoughts?

Haircut time boys.  When somebody drops out let's hear about it.  And let's please try to keep the extraneous crap out of here.  I really believe folks try to read and keep up with this.  Thanks again men.
