Disclaimer- I do not know anything about the recruit visiting...
but I sense that MUCH of the college basketball landscape has been created by JUST ONE or TWO PEOPLE...
First - the entire aspect of juco, NAIA and even some DII players getting an extra year is all completely as a result
of ONE SINGLE federal judge, William Campbell, in Tennessee, who issues a TEMPORARY injunction applying to Diego Pavia,
allowing him an extra year due to the use of his eligibility in junior college -- ONE JUDGE, but then NCAA didn't want a landslide
of additional lawsuits so they ok'ed the ruling for everyone. Now we do have a landslide of additional 5th & 6th year guys in the portal.
Second- a North Carolina judge ruled that players can transfer as many times as they want without any penalty or period of ineligibility.
Again, opening the floodgates for guys to hop yearly from team to team as often as 4 or 5 times.
Thanks guys, you have effectovely killed mid-majors' chances of ever building or sustaining successful teams
and post-season runs....

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.

He committed to Central Michigan last fall, but now he is decommitting and reopening his recruitment. Could Bradley be interested? - https://x.com/G_SullivanMPA/status/1909381320025030978

With all the players now in the portal, have to think the coaching staff has compiled a list of players on their radar. Of course not all the players they are wanting will decide to not be coming to BU. Have to think by now there are players that are considering BU. Was mentioned in a previous post that a certain players was here for a visit. Can only hope the staff made a good impression upon him. In my opinion we should be getting close to hearing some news going forward.
