Gotcha! I guess I just assumed it was Capel.
It's def Capel recruiting him because he has a great relationship with his aau coach. And while he only said it might affect his decision a little if "one of the assistant coaches" were to depart, he obviously means Capel or Kenny Payne because they're the only assistants who realistically could leave for a head coaching job..

That's what I thought I had read but I thought it was Payne that had the good relationship with the AAU coach. A relationship that was built up on the Randle recruitment. My memory is getting worse the older I get though. Lol

Just an FYI, the TrueBlueCustoms Twitter account owner has himself posted that the rumor that Bolden has ordered one shoe or the other (or both) isn't true and that "the kid hasn't made up his mind".

Which is interesting, because he says that as if he has heard it from the source. Makes me think that perhaps Bolden has been in contact with them - looking at designs and prices perhaps? Interesting.

What's the odds we even end up playing duke in the tourney? I just can't see anybody saying "man I hope we get bolden just so duke isn't as dominant!" That would just be ludicrous.

What are the odds of UK playing Duke next year?

Dude, you are talking about potentially the number 1 and number 2 teams in the nation, and could easily end in both being 1 seeds. There is a pretty good probability of the game happening, or at least, a decent chance.

All I'm saying is in this unique situation it's a double edged sword. Uk needs the depth, and we don't need Duke getting another Big and stud player. If you can honestly argue that, you're the idiot, not me.

That's what I took from it. Seems like he maybe has two items and he can't choose between one from the store. It was mentioned they had Duke shoes on their Instagram account but clearly a pro UK store. Very interesting indeed.

My sources tell me Bolden ordered a custom pair of Pro Wings and is going to play in a rec league next year.
