One of the more overrated recruits in recent memory. You pretty much knew he was a head case when he pulled that move. Kansas seems to get a lot of those guys lately.

May they get many, many more like him

Really highlights the recruiting advantage a school like Michigan has. It basically said he just met Belein for the first time, despite Michigan recruiting him for the past year. Meanwhile, Prohm has to spend countless hours and effort on these kids to even have a chance.

I still think we have a better chance of landing him because of this though

You'll fit in well here! Kansas must be destroyed.

“Still taking my time with everything,” Horton-Tucker said. “I’m still just waiting to see what I’m going to do. I’ll probably decide when I’m going to make my decision in a few weeks, I don’t know yet.”

That is a somewhat new development

Citing distance and wanting to be closer to home as potential reasons. Will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Probably LSU

I was thinking FSU. But you could be right. Would be real telling if we start hearing Kansas trying to get back in on him, however. Although I don't think that'll happen.

Oh I've hated KU since late 80s, progressively gotten worse. I'm an Iowa State grad. Love ISU. Just from birth grew up an Illini fan bc my dad graduated from there. Been a long 5-7 years on that end of the spectrum. Love what Prohm has done and think he will be a longer tenured and more successful Johnny Orr. I like coaches who prove themselves at smaller d1 schools and get their chance in the p5.

Shhhh. You're going to bring Tuco out from the mirror if you start talking that way.

Michigan just landed a 4 star SF Ignas Brazdeikis. Similar size and position to THT, may eliminate them from his list.

I definitely want ISU to get THT, however, IMO...... Griffin>>THT. But as I said, I love them both and would like to see them both in ISU uniforms. I just feel that Griffin has a LOT more athleticism to his game.
