PoP @Premierball:

2016 6'7 SG Brendan Bailey @brendanbailey35 w/ home visits from the following; ASU Bobby Hurley Sun. 4pm, Zags Sun. 7pm and SDST Tues 3:30pm

Recently decommit from Arizona State. Gonzaga reportedly was about to offer before he chose ASU.

One of the top wings in the country, nice long range jumper

Hurls' first test.

I think Hurley will succeed. In fact, I think he's your crown prince waiting upon King K to retire (provided he does well). Ammaker hasn't done enough, didn't do well at Michigan.

I hope coach continually asks him if he recalls what SDSU's record was last year and asks how far they got in the tournament.

terrific kid by all accounts. good student, top-75 player, & a budding blue-chip type wing (with much needed muscle).

still growing. 6'7", with 6'10" wingspan.

excellent shot to the perimeter. needs to improve rebounding & post moves (mostly strength related).

would be a tremendous player and person for the Zags. more than worth utilizing an available schollie.

as you'll see in an earlier post, I was IRATE after Zags failed to offer him the first go 'round, when he publicly listed and stated interest in GU.

would love to have him. a RS yr may be needed, yet crazy skills and length.

interestingly, he attended the Zags at BYU game this year.

Mike Brey tho a bit old is another Koach branch. But I always figured Brad Stevens was the top choice.

Tommy maintains publically that the fanbase (of any program) knows less than 5% of what goes on vis a vis recruiting in general, or recruiting a kid in particular. Internet charts often have sense of accuracy but rarely tell the whole story.

Not sure there's any reason to get "irate" over something you really don't know anything about.

At least that's my opinion.

Yeah, I find it fruitful to defer to you on many of these types of topics.

Of course, I certainly didn't come up with the prediction on my own. I really don't follow closely enough. I heard a very persuasive case for it on SVP show that made a lot of sense t me. Sure, it is predicated upon a quick turnaround at ASU like Buffalo. But, a school with the benefits of ASU, gorgeous women walking in shorts on Jan 15th - if a guy can recruit and take a Buffalo team to the tourney..... Sure, he wouldn't have the proven long term success that Dook might prefer, but he'd sure be a hot choice if ASU does well out of the box.

I understand your sentiment, and 'irate' may have been a poor term.

As a fan, follower, and friend of the program, I was simply disappointed when noticing no offer was formally extended prior to Brendan's commitment to ASU.

Maybe it was for a particular reason or he was long-sold on Tempe's College; however, one couldn't help but notice Mr. Bailey shared his fondness of Gonzaga. I'm sure there was mutual interest to some extent, yet I also assure you there was no offer at the same time.

Besides, being "disappointed" is merely an "opinion" as well. I hope you didn't feel offended on how I felt?

I'm just pleased we are in the mix, have a pony in this race, and taking efforts to potentially bring Brendan Bailey on board.

JMO.

When did he become one of the top wings in the country?

[sittingon50]

I've mentioned this on him before, but his Dad Thurl is a class act so I automatically like this kid.
