According to the Wisconsin State Journal - Diamond Stone picked Maryland over the Badgers - big loss for Bucky and Maryland gets a significant force - plus they already have two other MacDonald's AA.
OMG if true that would be so funny after all the effort to recruit him! But I'm sure not finding any speculation about it on the internet.Originally posted by hooper56:
The talk is he won't make it into school and will end up playing in Europe.
OMG, not so much. I would think there's numerous school administrations that cooperate with their BB & FB coaches to get a recruit admitted to school......just say'n.Originally posted by DanL53:

OMG, exactly what ARE you saying? "there Is (is?) numerous school..yada, yada,". Thanks for the, um, correction?Yeah, let's ask SMU how that worked with Mudiay. Anyway, as I said, "IF TRUE".
So, OMG, that would be so funny after all the effort to recruit him! How much?
This much!!!!
Might be true he can't get in to Wisconsin but that Maryland finds a way. Or Bo Ryan's daughter might have had sour grapes.Originally posted by hooper56:
Bo Ryan's daughter was tweeting about him not being able to get admitted to Wisconsin...
Great sketch, Dan. I laughed and laughed!!! I suggest you make some for poor referee's calls, coaches losing it on the sidelines, etc.
the best part of that 'article' ARE the comments. i especially enjoyed the embedded link stating that the UW has the worst graduation rate of any of the teams in the tourney. and here they are complaining that their standards are too high. which may or may not even play a role in this circus. what a joke.Originally posted by DanL53:

I think Bo's daughter has a big mouth.I could like this woman, and I mean that sincerely. Tells it like she thinks it is. She posted a link to this article on her twitter. The comments following the article are important for context.

It's fun isn't it.My GUESS is it is probably true that last fall Stone would have committed, but the get yourself admitted thing got in the way. By the time he was admitted, and I believe he was, the offer of a great shoe contract someday if he goes to Maryland had come up.
Hey, it's all good. We got the smart Bo's daughter who couldn't get admitted to Wisconsin. Diamond Stone who's name is just unfair weird...shoe deals.Amateur college sports at their finest!
Rumor has it he is a 1 and done type player.Originally posted by badger-007:
Why wasn't Iowa in on his recruitment? Yes he didn't choose Wisconsin but it seems like Iowa could have used him also...Maybe more...

Iowa doesn't want those type of players (sarcasm).
Who knows why Iowa didn't recruit him more.
Silly question. Iowa hasn't the "resources" that Maryland enjoys. Under Armour? We're not going to compete with that.
