RECRUITING: Shakur Juiston commits to UNLV

[2forISU]

I didn't realize Grandstaff ended up at DePaul. That kid's been all over the place.

Kid was disaster in Columbus. Dad was bat **** crazy and seem to have numerous distractions off the court.

I think KU basically let him go. They had other priorities and were recruiting him in a backup roll.

I think it was mostly mutual.
I felt a lot better when it seemed like it was ISU and KU primarily in the picture. Juiston to KU didn't make a lot of sense from either side. KU is not going to wait on a guy they publicly stated was a backup role and Juiston isn't going to go somewhere just due to it's name. From the KU fans at Hutch he's still welcome at KU as long they have an opening, but they wisely moved on in targeting other guys.

So according to this thread Juiston to DePaul is a done deal? Funny because I'm not seeing that anywhere else.

I forgot to mention, my sources are just me.

Did you check with your source though?

If it was DePaul I would have expected the decision yesterday. That said thanks for the posters that are sharing what they are hearing. At this point even if it is DePaul I just want a decision from Shakur so the staff can evaluate there options.

One thought of hope here is Wigginton's commitment week were it went from all signs pointing to Oregon to committing ISU overnight. Since there was no announcement on his visit he may be leaning but still weighing his options. Prohm shill may have a pitch to give.

Agree with this. Only thing I have seen from his visit is he did a photo shoot with his friends from aau in a DePaul jersey. Could mean he's going there, might not. Collin Sexton took a picture in an Iowa state jersey, but he's not coming. Might just be taking a picture with his friend. Who knows.

Not believing this one until I see it as official.

Mostly cus DePaul.

We are really speculating way to much on this.

A lot of assumptions are being made based off of a picture... Every school does this!

For what it's worth. I think we're making a big deal out of nothing (per usual)

That's what he is saying for free. Halsted charges for the good info. He is ruthless.

Glad to see people preemptively throwing him under the bus because someone may know something that looks like he might be considering going to another school.

You think he visited just to get his picture taken?

It's not the picture, but the connections. Playing with a very good buddy and for a former coach in a city like Chicago is likely very appealing.

Wait, just heard from another source that things are still up in the air for Juiston and that there are still moving parts.

So by "moving parts" I take that to mean DePaul is moving some money around to pay his AAU coach...since they haven't had much success lately someone had to dip into their 401k.

Tighter underwear could help.

he was never really as good as all the hype he was getting anyway. Junkyard dog type who rebounds but not likely a great offensive player in a Power 5 conference in terms of scoring.

I'm so confused.

I would have KILLED for that last year.
