True...there is obviously a lot more to this story that we don't know. Maybe (like Damon Bailey from Indiana who was only going one place- IU) this kid's short life dream is to play at UK? He's from SoCal..so maybe it's really UCLA?

IF he is everything he's being touted (which IS how it is today as Rocky argued with me)...then additional offers will plow in....

Again..I'm only trying to say he should use the system because we all know the system will use him...Why in the hell else would he get an offer in the
8th grade. That part IS crazy to me and it is the landscape of basketball these days as well as other sports.
