Source: Four-star wing Brendan Bailey commits to Marquette

http://www.scout.com/college/basketball/recruiting/story/1601520-source-brendan-bailey-commits-marquette

Brendan Bailey, a 6-foot-7 wing out of Utah, committed to Marquette on Tuesday.

2016 small forward Brendan Bailey verbally committed to Steve Wojciechowski and Marquette, according to a source.

Bailey, a standout at American Fork (Utah) High, picked Marquette over Michigan, Utah, San Diego State and Gonzaga. Bailey took visits to all five of his finalisits.

In late November of 2014, Bailey committed to Herb Sendek and Arizona State. When Sendek moved on from the Sun Devils, Bailey backed off his verbal pledge. Current Marquette assistant coach Stan Johnson was the lead recruit for Bailey at ASU at the time. Johnson picked up his recruitment of Bailey when he landed at Marquette.

As a junior, Bailey averaged 14.2 points and 5.6 rebounds a game. Scout analyst Josh Gershon is impressed with Bailey's versatility and scoring ability.

"Brendan Bailey projects as a good high major wing," Gershon said. "Offensively he can either play the two or three on offense and potentially even four in a smaller lineup. Defensively he can guard threes and possibly bigger twos and smaller fours. Being able to score off the dribble is an important attribute for a wing and that's something Bailey has ability to do; he can create his own shot and score at a respectable efficiency."

"Bailey needs to continue to add to his handle and get stronger, but he has a nice feel for the game and is a prospect with both a high floor and high ceiling," Gershon added. "He's a very good pickup for Marquette."

With Bailey on board, Marquette has a pair of commitments in the 2016 recruiting class. Bailey joins No. 73 Sam Hauser to make up Wojciechowski's current recruiting class.

2 top 100 2016 recruits following the 2015 class.  Oops?

Probably should be counted as a 2018 recruit....

@jeffborzello: ESPN 100 forward Brendan Bailey has committed to Marquette, source tells ESPN.

Plan is to take 2-year mission, enroll as freshman in 2018.

Does anybody wish to lay odds on whether he (A) classifies as a '16 or an '18 recruit, and if '18, whether he honors this commitment in just less than 3 years.

He will sign his NLI so both parties will be tied to one another.  I think it is highly likely that he ends up coming here in '18.  I doubt he changes his mind about his mission.

I'm ok with him being an '18.    However, I can easily foresee a scenario where Henry is a 1-and-done and BBailey rethinks it.

I'm gonna guess that he only takes a 1 year mission instead of 2 and reclassifies to 2017.

Welcome to the Marquette family.  For the moment I have classified him as an '18 on the future scholly thread.

Maybe he could just go see The Book of Mormon and call it even, hey?

How do these kids keep their bball skills polished while on a mission?

Let's think about it another way.  Instead of an 18 year old boy we'll get a 20 year old man.

Love the pickup. Solid addition for the 2018 class. Always nice to have a player who is two years more mature, both physically and mentally, than everyone else in his class

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Makes me wonder if Louisville recruits Mormon kids...

Good question. I don't have the answer.

Hope he does not lose weight,  he is skinny right now and needs to get into the weight room.  But he will be 20 year old freshman so that will help.  Have to like that
Thurl was 6'10" so he might still grow.  Looks like he has a nice shot, with Carter at the point, wings of Hauser, Bailey, Sacar and Cheatham, the backcourt looks
strong in the future.  Heldt is the only big in 2018 left  so it will time to recruit some bigs the next few years.  Give credit to Stan Johnson, looks like a nice addition on
the recruiting scene.  Xaiver Tillman is the next big catch for sure.

So, the net of this thread is that we are luke warm on a 4 star, top 100 recruit???

If he is half as good as the Ox, sign me up.

He's a 2016.  He's just not showing up for two years, not reclassifying to 2018. (or 2017)
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

jesmu84

So we still have 1 scholarship for next year, correct?

I like that he is doing the mission.  Brendan is a very good pickup for us. He is going to create match up problems.
