Thought Dick was short for Richard.

The above was actually a quote from the divorce proceedings from the second divorce between Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor.

just noticed ricardo retweeted lindseys commitment to arkansas, not sure if hes friends with lindsey or if hes making a point that another stjohns player goes somewhere else. maybe im looking into it too much.

Players retweet everything. Its just the culture

Well, he was taking shots at LSU fans and LSU football team last week on twitter, so not too surprising. I think he ends up here.

I think he believes he is better than LSU basketball and rightfully so, the hometown factor is not enough to get him to play there.

Florida doesn't have a shot and NC State doesn't seem logical with TJ Warren basically telling them if they recruit anyone else he's out. They list Warren as a SF but he's going to be an inside guy.

I like the fact that LSU is out.  The biggest pressure on him was for him to stay home and play for LSU.  I think we will land Ricardo here.  Baylor seems to be involving themselves with everybody, but Gathers would have a lot better PT scenario here.  The PF spot is cut out for him and waiting.  Just want to see him pull the trigger, but I guess we'll have to wait a little longer for some of these kids.  Gathers would be great for us because he causes such mismatch problems up front with his strength and athleticism.  Would be SJU's version of Arkansas' Corliss Williamson.

And CJ Leslie is only a soph.   Seems like a logjam at pf for at least the next few years.     

Almost forgot they also have Tyler Harris this year, who may never start, but he will steal some minutes too.    Certainly the starting lineup won't be as wide open for him as it would here.

Ricardo Gathers (Riverside Academy 2012) – Gathers listed Baylor, NC State, St. John’s and Florida as his 4 favorites with LSU and California also heavily involved. He said that Kentucky coach John Calipari has been to see one of his games but hasn’t been in contact. Duke has offered but has only been in contact once during the season and stands clearly below his top 4. Gathers does plan to visit Duke along with NC State, Florida and Baylor.

Would not shock me to see Harris transfer especially if they land Amile Jefferson

I believe the Duke interest is contingent on NOT landing Tony Parker....

Jefferson is involved somewhere in that scenario as well.

Jefferson is a prototypical Duke recruit.  I'd be shocked not to see him end up a Blue Devil.

Some one must of told him that hes opinion of comparisons is well respected. I personally think hes way off on a lot of the ones he makes.
As for Amile I wish we could have got in on him. Kid just knows how to score
