Jamil Wilson sets announcement date..

I'm in awe of this thread. This is a new low in speculating on a recruit.

Maybe for Marquette, but this is nothing for the likes of Kentucky. They are relentless over there.

Personally I don't get the whole speculation thing. If the kid wants to come to MU, he will. If he doesn't he won't. Trying to read the signs isn't productive. You'd be better off considering how many angles can dance on the head of a pin or whether if a tree falls in the forest and doesn't make a sound, did it really fall.

You may actually come up with an answer to those questions faster than figuring out what the motivations are in a 17 year old kid.

I think people need to take it easy on this kid and his perceived outbursts.  He has gone through some very emotional things in this life and I could see an outburst or two happening in an extremely competitive environment.  At 17, he probably has more pressure on him from his friends, neighbors and family then most people had throughout college.   

He  doesn't sound like a kid with an attitude problem, just someone who has been through a lot.

And if you look back at my post you'll see I clearly said this. I wasn't trying to be hard on him at all, just reporting what I saw.

Look it up home boys, I called two weeks ago that this clown was holding out until this summer to blow up....doesn't seem like he wants to go to Marquette or Wisconsin, waiting for the "big" schools to come calling.  They don't call me esoteric mind guy for nothing.

He is ranked in the top 20 in the country. He blew up last summer.

The "big schools" already have come calling.

How much more can he "blow up"? He's already rated top 10 nationally for his class.

and plays for US U18 team if I am correct?

If he holds out his decision until March 9th, not many of the big schools may not hold a scholarship for him...

What amazes me is the negative talk here about a potential recruit. Why risk making feel like he should go else where based on fan reaction here. While in the long run what goes on here probably makes no difference, I think the criticism here is uncalled for and just plain stupid.
