You gotta kick the tires but yeah there's no history of landing high end 5* guys. Not saying there won't be but until there is just taking the news as pulicity stunt type of stuff. "So many choices I just can't decide what should I do?!?!?!"
He's probably down to G league or UK. Unless somebody opens up the vault. Doesn't appear UofL is doing that - see Mgbako.
Ron Holland, the No. 2 recruit for 2023 who decommitted from Texas in April, is joining the G League Ignite. He is No. 6 in ESPN's 2024 NBA draft rankings.
One of the big risks with recruiting high end 5 star guys, though I agree you have to try on some of them, is that they'll decommitt and go to the GLeague like Ron Holland did to Texas. I think I heard both 5 star recruits decommitted from Texas recently.
Good point Shadow. I'd be happy if they just found kids that want to be here at the 4* level but the landscape has changed not sure that even exists anymore. Let's see what this group does.
