I’m not sure, but we definitely should

Can you imagine if Boozer bros would stay home and play for the U

That would be huge. Miami would be officially in the upper echelon of college basketball.

They probably won’t, and somehow L and his staff will get blamed for it as if they can control the transitory nature of kids down here. Boozer family lives here, but they have no connections to Miami and are likely Duke bound. L needs to work it as much as he can, but don’t have super high hopes.

Put some respect on VJ Edgecombes name..

Bimini, Bahamas not Glen Head, Ny

Been selling to mom dukes as much as i could. He has about every offer now though lol.

 

[casualcane]

We have a few SF offers out there if you include Rooths and Williams. I’d love to land VJ for sure.

More than likely but I have a heard a few interviews that at least led me to believe we have an outside shot. Boozer (pops) spoke very high about L, loves our campus, style of play. Might have just been fluff to satisfy Miami guys, he was high on Miami though. Says his kids want to set their own paths and he wouldn't stand in the way.

Given that his mother works at the school, you would think getting him to commit would be easy.
That is a huge recruiting advantage.

Should help a lot but Nike kids usually get pushed to Nike schools. Do you know what the reasoning was behind him transferring to the Arizona prep school?

Guess we'll see how much he loves his mom.

This will add value to him in the eyes of Coach L.
Coach L likes older players as he feels older is better.
Plus he is from the DC area.

Competition and a chance to play on a bigger stage.
All shoe company teams do that.
At the end of the day, chance to play always comes first.
PT is the #1 cause of kids going to the transfer portal.

Ran into Coach L at the Adidas event today. We were watching the Team Loaded NC vs. Garner Road NC game (coached by ex NBA player Doug West). We chatted about the season and his NYC ties as the NY Gauchos were playing there too. Tracy McGrady’s team (Houston based) was on the court next to where we were. T-Mac still looks like he can help some NBA teams. Event was loaded to say the least.

There were a few reasons, biggest reason was money.
