Never said we were landing Jasper … Denzel never made an appearance …

I did say we were a dark horse and days later he was on campus for an OV …

It was always Bama and UNC out front after O and Cal left UK … If O was at UK with Cal … Jasper would’ve been committed this spring … He respected the relationship he has with O and visited us and gave us a shot … That’s really all we could ask for getting into a 5 star recruitment this late … And earlier in this thread I posted that I think he’s going to Bama …

yeah, yeah, it's still your fault.

got any more crootin news?

For Brown...

If Bama lands Jasper...they already got the Holloway kid via portal...can't imagine them being able to land both Brown and Jasper.

Ole Miss seems like the lead right now at the moment...but I mean...can def. see this being an option for us.

Indy, any truth to the rumors that Jaspers Top 5 isn’t as set in stone as everyone thinks?

I don’t want to create speculation where it’s not warranted, but I’ve heard from two sources I’d call credible, one from the UK camp and another from the Louisville camp that both say they have no idea how Louisville landed in this top 5…

The rumor is that Jasper put them in there as a subliminal message to UK and that there’s another “sleeper team” that could creep back in to his top 5 if UK doesn’t get its act together?

Have you heard anything along any of these lines?

Thanks in advance.

OMG, I can’t believe you are saying to watch for this commitment soon. We are cooking! /s

all depends on how you look at it. he's going to be ~$500K (pure guess) ahead compared to staying in HS. if he has a big year, he's setting himself up well for year 2. once kids start college, rankings don't matter much
I didn't much care for Earle Bruce, but I did like his quote way back when:

"Everyone wants to gamble with MY money!" LOL

That music is playing in my head.
Greetings, greetings fellow star gazers! Loved Jack Horkheimer's shows - five minutes late night on PBS in the mid-80s, I think.Still play Tomita's electronic Debussy CD now and then. A few shows are on YouTube. Keep looking up.
