JB2 deciding soon

[ccgeneral 38,084]

fwiw. Maybe keep an eye out on Devin Booker's decision. 

 

“I really don’t have a timetable in mind but it should be before the November signing period, but I’ll probably commit before then,” he told SNY.tv by phone from USA Basketball in Colorado Springs, Colo. “I really don’t have a date set up, I’ll probably know that in the next week or so.”

“Right now I just have a Kentucky official set up for Oct. 18,” he said. “I might have Kansas and Michigan State, I don’t know if I’m going to set those up yet or not. I’ll probably know in the next week or so.”considering Indiana, along with Michigan, Michigan State, Kentucky and Kansas. He had an official at Michigan on Sept.27.

True.

 

I expect him to go to the school known as "The University of Wherever Booker Doesn't End Up".

 

It is mildly encouraging that he still speaks with CTC 4-5 times per week. Seems like it's not over for IU, though we're likely running third.

Seems like UK, and always has. Maybe IU can pull something crazy out here.

For some reason I think his mother really wants him to go to IU while his dad is all ky..  Think the kid is a little torn.  Just a guess though.

That article also says he talks to Crean "every day or every other day".

I think Michigan.  I think Booker is going to UK and that top kid who just committed to Michigan has recruited Blackmon hard as has Austin Hatch.  I am going with the surprise pick.

Michigan will not be a surprise at all.

 

The surprise choice would be...

 

IU

Surely JB2 wouldn't drag CTC along this long knowing he'll never go to IU.. right???

Last I heard it was Like this:

Dad - Kentucky

Mom- IU

JBJ - Michigan

Might partially be his way of keeping the peace in the family.

I think he's keeping IU just for his mom. And Crean keeps recruiting him because of his mom

I keep hearing it will be Michigan, I have no inside source or scoop, all just rumors. With that said I really want him to play for Indiana.

[All_Hoosiers 873]

Does Blackmon really want to share playing time with Ulis at UK? I think he'll end up at Michigan. 

 

I'd love to have the guy at IU, but we've got our 2014 guard.
