More Williams speculation if you're into that:

I reflexively consume it now, as meaningless as it all will be in 24 hours.

So when can we hear about his and Bwill's backup plans? Cuz it seems like they might be the primary plan now.
I imagine it wouldn't take very long after BWill's announcement.

Edit: I'm in a fuck it mood. If BW commits elsewhere as expected I'll tell you who he is immediately.
Hell yeah. Hoping it might be a reclassification from the 2019 class of a talented kid, or an international prospect.

Got a text that said that as far as my friend knows, nothing has changed from what they heard earlier in regards to Williams.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

I really hope people respect his decision and accept it with class. It's his life and he is doing what he thinks is best for him.

Arizona State might have the most surprisingly anemic history in men's basketball of any program that you might think is better than it is.

Doesn't sound like the recruitment is going to go on much longer regardless. If Arizona can't get him on campus next weekend I'd consider it 100% done.

Maybe Brandon told Jordan he is picking the UofA and Jordan decided he will join him.

Thanks, Tate.

In 90 mins, we’ll be heralding his arrival and calling him the savior, or we’ll be lamenting the ‘18 class that got away (Quinerly, O’Neal, BW, Bol).

Oh man. ‘18 could’ve been his best class at AZ, which is saying a lot.

I hope BW brings some confidence back to AZ today. If he shuns his dream school to go elsewhere, it’s not a good look for us.

phew. ESPN tried their hardest to bone us, but we persevered. good news is that in the last 4 weeks we went from an empty husk of a team with which an NIT appearance would've been a miracle to a full roster that can potentially compete to win the conference title.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

No, but Arizona and him aren't going to happen. Kid isn't very likely to make it academically into UCLA either, so will be interesting to see what he does.

I think it is still a verbal commitment, but from how it sounds, he isn't recommitting.
