Perferct recruit for them.  The kind of kid that is capable of beating any team on any given night almost single-handedly.   Consistency will be the question with him, but he is the equalizer.

He said that because they are supposed to have a press conference Thursday to officially announce. It's all a little weird. There are just some commitments you know won't stick and this is likely one of them. Whether someone else swoops in or he doesn't qualify. Also Seton Hall needs a PG next year, bad. So I'm not really sure why they'd take a 2013 commitment that could jeopardize their 2012 class?!

Jordan Goodman wasn't purely academics. There were some questionable character issues with him as well he wasn't in good standing with DC Assault program and Rutgers assistant coach David Cox used to be associated with DC Assault before his days at Georgetown.

Oh I know about the connection between DC Assault and Cox and Goodman.  And I did hear he has behavioral problems.  But my point is he committed/decommitted to 3 different schools already.

There's a reason why Dalonte Hill didn't go after him hard either.  Cox and Hill know a lot about the situation, but aren't talking about it.

Good article in the Washington Post about Aquille.  He definitely seems a likeable kid.  His dad had some game too, but wound up giving up ball to take financially take care of his family.

Rico and Tony were done watching some younger kids and had a game between before they would have seen Kyle Anderson. Usually coaches go grab a slice of pizza, bullshit with other coaches, but Rico was like hell no this little guy is too fun to watch. So him and Tony sat there and watched Aquille play. He must have had 30 points.

Really no interest in recruiting him but thought you'd guys would enjoy a little insight into Rico and Tony on the road. They are great dudes and they love what they do.

Aquille is a really nice kid. Charismatic as can be but he's not Einstein.

Plus Baltimore's crime rate literally drops every time he plays.
When you're a kid from New York and you do it in New York, that lasts forever!

Zagoria just tweeted that he is now attending St. Patrick's in NJ, seems odd because they are supposed to be closing at the end of the school year

Real odd.  See story.  He is tranferring mid-semester and then apparently will transfer BACK to Baltimore.  No question though the kid's academics are very questionable.  Kid can ball but if you remember he had a very odd list of schools at the end for a kid of his stature and Maryland made it clear that they were not offering him.  I am told that is because of his academics.

My old school and CYO program - my brother still runs the CYO program there.

I think Aquille might struggle with the school work though.

This kid will not see a college campus anytime in the near future. Its sads because he is incredibly talented.
