MCD, yes he is . I saw him several times last year as a Fr. and that young man can play even at his size. His size kinda reminds me of the ISU PG 2 years ago . He was very small but boy could he play. I'd take that kid in a minute.

The first three recruits' names on our recruiting page right now are a Bishop, a Church, and a Christian. Guess Geno is trying to get God on our side.

2016 prospect Xavier Bishop was selected the Most Outstanding Performer at the 2013 Battle For The Rankings Player Showcase this weekend in Bloomington.
There were some pretty good prospects there, so congratulations to BU recruit Xavier Bishop!-

It looks like the rankings are for downstate Illinois.

[tornado]

Yes, those rankings are for just Central IL
The website's stated goal is...
"Our goal is to continue focusing on the Central Illinois area
and to assist players in getting the same opportunity
that many of the Chicagoland Area players have been afforded."

The site is run by Dodie Dunson's brother Brandon Dunson

So I wonder if the signing of Tramique Sutherland will cause Xavier Bishop to have second thoughts about BU?

I am sure that it won't. Sutherland will graduate and be gone by the time Xavier Bishop arrives at college.
Tramique will be at Bradley for the next 2 years (2014-15 & 2015-16). Xavier Bishop is only a high school sophomore, and won't play at college until 2016-17.

Sorry...my mistake. I didn't pay attention to the ages of the kids. My bad.
