I love how his favorite class is Advanced Quantitative Reasoning. That's awesome.

I think he is pretty intelligent. Landing him and Mudiay would get us two high character kids. The fact that he wrote about us is major. I thought we had lost all momentum. UK already has a lot of size in Karl Towns and Trey Lyles in their class, which he said in the blog he would consider.

"That's why I didn't go to any of the different midnight madness events or anything. To me, that's all irrelevant for my decision. I wanted to see how they work and see how the coaches run things."

you have to think that is nice for us..........

I like the introductory paragraph:

...potential college destinations into a who's who of college basketball's most elite programs: Arizona, Duke, Kansas, SMU, Kentucky, Ohio State, Oklahoma State and Texas.

That IS awesome but I'm kinda confused how Texas got in that group :shock:

Before this blog, I gave us an outside chance. Now, I think it's down to us, Kansas, and Duke. He's a sharp kid and sounds like his father is a good man. If how teams practice is important to him, I like our chances. Hopefully Okafor goes to Kansas and then I think we are in the drivers seat. High character young man. Brown and SMU will take good care of him, both on and off the court.

Make sure that we get Moody filled and loud for UConn. That would one game he would show up for.

Sorry for the diversion, but does every third prospect these days carry the last name Okafor? How many of them are there?

Need to invite Myles & family to either the Memphis game on 2/1, or Louisville game on 3/5. . . Especially, if Myles won't make his decision until the spring. . . Also need to set it up where Emmanuel Mudiay attends and sits with the Turner family at the same game(s) :mrgreen:
