I know it's freaking addictive. LOL   I think I'm going to go up to saratoga in a couple of weeks for a day. It's fun as long as I'm not losing every race :)

Wow, great job by Lavin and the staff.  If they don't lose anyone to one and dones, the 2012 team will be stacked and could win a national title.

Evan Daniels at Scout has the story up already:  http://scouthoops.scout.com/2/1090667.html

Amazingly Rivals/Yahoo not only doesn't have the story, they don't even have SJU as a "school of interest" for Ricardo!

Not likelyh, but given his game, is Ricardo any relation to the late Hank Gathers?  Also a 6-7 rebounding beast with a nice mid-range game.

cr I hope they're related as to how they play the game! This is awesome news.  Once again, let's have Law of Increasing Returns go into effect for 2012! Congrats to Ricardo and the staff - Ricardo's making a great choice

Gathers is all but locked up. I don't want to say he's coming yet but I'd be shocked if he doesn't commit by sometime in July. St. John's fans can confidently await Gathers' word.

I'd focus all attention on Kyle Anderson as the last piece.

Yeah Yeah, lucky he didn't commit two days later!

Just scanning other boards, people are fearing Lavin.  LSU fans are bummed about losing the top kid in the state.  Also intersting was that it was damn hard to find a basketball board for a lot of the SEC and Big 12 schools.  Don't see what a basketball kid would ever want to go to a school where basketball will be in the 2nd position at all times.

A great get for the staff. What a tremendous pickup and beating out four top ranked programs to get a player from the Bayou.
Just a great time to be a St. Johns fan. Welcome aboard Ricardo and welcome to NYC. .

Maybe, word is if the NCAA gives Momo a waiver and allows him to play this year Gathers will feel the need to enroll at SJU in 2011 to make sure Iona does not supplant SJU as the no. 1 team in the area!!!  LOL!!
