I figured this was thread worthy. But Xavier is supposedly on the short list with UK and Ohio State as potential schools with (Xavier possibly leading) for 5 star PG Kobi Simmons.

Even if we miss out, this kind of thing never would've happen in the A-10. So thanks Big East

"No top-level basketball recruit will EVER want to play for a basketball-only school in front of a few thousand fans on FS1. They want ESPN, the exposure and the big-time allure of power conference schools. PERIOD."

I love pulling quotes like these out of my hat from time to time. :D

I hope Xavier reels him in!

Gotta like that quote. Hopefully he goes to Xavier. I know Creighton has gotten a good number of top 100 recruits to visit since joining the Big East (that would not have happened if we were in the MVC). Now it's a matter of getting them to pull the trigger....

Logic would say UK is the favorite, but I listened to the latest Musketeer Report podcast and they say that isn't the case.
