So..... maybe JB isn't really

Sounds like a bright kid who is doing his due diligence. Best of luck to him.

Sounds like its us/Hall for his services, we will see. Seton Hall insiders think hes theirs. Cant be mad at that, hes from Jersey City and his mom wants him close with PT available. Seton Hall takes care of both of that but Im still confident

Is UConn a serious contender for Thompson? Their board seems to think it's between SHU and them.

He's not starting next year at UConn.

I mean really, after all that it really might be Seton Hall? Really?

Too late to the party and a crowded frontcourt

If it's between us and SHU, the Hall would be a pretty big sacrifice just to see games. But oh well, his decision.

They're serious enough to get 1 of his 5 official visits. And while they have bodies in the front court, are any of them locks to start and get 30+ mpg? Their big lineup looks weak, maybe TT thinks he could start there next season.

Brimah, Enoch, Facey , Durham, Diarra and 5 star Brown in 17. I couldnt see him gettimg more than 15 mins per game and Ollie tends to go small a lot.

His quotes in that zagsblog article made it sound like, they called and he figured that he had extra official's to blow so he decided to take the trip. Didn't make them sound like a serious contender at all. But who knows.

Official Visit to Seton Hall. What is deal with this kid?

His options are falling away.

According to the Seton Hall board, its us and Seton Hall, with Seton Hall in the lead.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Seton Hall board says its done and he committed to them. Probably be public very soon. Oh well, come on down Mr Dembele

 

[reedny]

perhaps, after all, this is a better fit for him. best o luck. some of us have already moved on (after 8 months).

Between this and the UNC news is this April fools?

 

[rackman18]

I hope his mother will NOW be happy.

 

[Ghost]

After all this, the kid decides on Seton Hall? Strange decision, but if your goal is PT, maybe that's how you gotta go about it.

 

[rackman18]

Has this been confirmed yet?

 

[Briancuse]

Did we lose him, because of the fact we are pretty stacked at the forwards position?

We're stacked for one year. Next year Roberson and likely Lydon will be gone.

He must want to start right away, but it also shows me he's afraid to compete.
