2023 SF/PF Mackenzie Mgbako to Texas A&M via Portal

Guys…Bill Self did this while under investigation and didn’t get touched… Id love to be wrong but I wrote this one off when I heard it was down to us and Kansas. These kids are looking to get paid and I have a hard time believing we beat Kansas at their own game.

Part of the issue with that plan is you can’t just give MMs money to them when I am sure a lot of us was from Adidas and equal to Kansas. We could give the excess 

I still think it is IU. Really do. 

They have to figure out someway to start closing.  This roster still has glaring holes and so far the staff has failed miserably to address them and looks like options that are actually desirable are getting low.

The closer we get the more firmly I believe it's Kansas.  I'd gladly be wrong though.

Uwe sold a tech company I think. I’m just messing around because I’m bored. No one knows but I feel good.

Dude’s so old he missed the MySpace reference. :)

At chick fil A drive through with windows down listening for clues. Doesn’t seem like anyone is here yet. Of course I am in Tampa but you never know.

Maybe this recruit will be cruising down I-95 in NJ and see a IU license plate and think. “It’s meant to be! Yep, I’m going to IU!”

Sorry Tamar, I had too

Since Slater is supposedly, close friends with MM and family, he HAS to know something.... Slater has to have some sort of an idea where MM is leaning. Someone posted on this site or HSN, that his recruitment is quit unique, in that the most respected or trusted media source is not giving his prediction. Either he definitely knows, and wants MM to have his day and announce on HIS terms (out if respect from being close family friends) or MM just can't honestly decide. 

.....I'm hoping for Jared Jefferies results again!

My sources are telling me that you should be able to buy Zelda this morning. I think we have 50% chance of landing him. I know nothing but like our chances

This is the 2023 version of waiting at the airport and plane tracking.  If we just took turns surely we would see Kenya getting something without ketchup.

Well I guess it's Kansas. Sorry guys. Not only did KU know earlier about his announcement time way before us, he is announcing it a whole hour earlier to Kansas fans.

KU Twitter still feels very confident. Screenshot of a discord chat where at 9:30 they said he'd announce at this time. 2 hours ahead of when Osterman tweeted it. Doesn't mean anything definitively though

Damn. They get everyone

[lillurk]

It may well be KU but Osterman tweeting out the announcement time after KU folks said it in a discord ain’t proof

[AKHoosier]

I think the staff has done a great job in this recruitment, especially given he was a late target. A lot had to happen quickly just to get him on campus.

I just see him picking Kansas.
