I'll tell you right now, you get this kid and we'll get any point guard we want.  He has the most ridiculous hops I've ever seen from a hs kid and his jump shot is getting better. 

I really don't think we have much of a shot though lol

Deuce is only about 6'3," but he has freakish length, which enables him to guard threes. He's a world-class dunker and developed a semblance of jump shot. This year, Quincy, who is tight as hell with him, will join him up at Westchester.

Brian Clifton runs this show.

We may be a longshot, but I'll tell you what would be a really cool reason to recruit him:



 

I had to stop watching the videos because I don't want to get excited.  Until the kid brings our name up I don't think I'll put too much into this.

The kid seems like a real long shot for us but if Jakarr can get us in the door with him and let Lavin work his magic maybe he can pull another miracle. We are a hot team right now and maybe this kid wants to play with his friend and for a rising program, you never know.

Brian Clifton is about as controlling as any handler in the country.
He has made Deuce & Q virtually inseparable.

I think that has changed.  Per Zags....  Deuce Bello says he's now considering St. John's after JaKarr Sampson's verbal. "Yes," he said by text.

I'm a Lavin believer. I bet we get this kid, or one better.

He said he was considering us after Jakarr committed was that just excitement over his buddys commitment or are we actaully involved with him at all, Does anyone know?

It seems like that might've been one of those "at the moment" scenarios. 

Here's the latest on Bello per Zagsblog....

I know Deuce and he never mentioned St. John's, but maybe he just thought that's what Zagoria wanted to hear. He and Q have been inseparable. The Cliftons run the show. They hired Tony Bergeron to coach D-1 this year, but he was pushing his buddy Calipari, the Dribble-Drive, and they lost way too much. It was embarrassing. They cut ties with Bergeron mid-summer.

Leaving Baylor....Worth pursuing if D-Lo has another blowup and leaves the team for good in 2013-14?
