Because when players announce from their high school gyms it always means they're going to the hometown school. Duh.

Like it was obvious when Wilkes announced his college choice at his Indiana high school?

The difference is that everyone knew Kris was going to UCLA.

It should've been obvious where he was going when he decided to announce at BA.

I’m from the Fort Wayne area. If a kid from one of our local schools announced at his school that he was going to Duke, people from their school aren’t gonna be like “uggh, you should have stayed home and went to IPFW!!”. They are gonna be excited, pumped, and proud that he was going to play basketball at a big school like Duke. (I’m not trying to compare Vanderbilt and IPFW as basketball destinations, only as local stay home schools). This is why I don’t think it matters that he is announcing at his school. I’d like to think that if he chose IU, people in his area are gonna think it’s a big deal and be excited for him because they know IU is a big deal.

Vanderbilt has this incredible, I mean humongous, fan following that they can't even have good message boards like this because there is not enough internet space to handle it. And Brentwood has been a huge pipeline delivering blue chip basketball players annually plus all the Brentwood kids are season ticket holders to Vandy games.

Exactly. If Garland goes to IU, everyone in attendance will be excited for him. High schoolers don't think like message board fanatics.

The last Brentwood blue chip recruit was Brandan Wright and he chose North Carolina

And RJ was down to IU and UNC I believe.  VA wasn't being considered.

And the Crystal Ball was OVERWHELMINGLY favoring UNC. But the CB majority is always right..

Meyer picked him to Virginia 2 days before he announced.
