I hope the straighthoops guy was not going off the fake twitter commitment from earlier today. Apparently many people believed it because the twitter handle was very close to Brown's real one.
No, two flips Monday morning (before the the StraightHoops tweet) started the trend. StraightHoops tweeted "I'm hearing Diallo to Kansas" over 5 hours after the 2nd flip.
Again, it takes more than being right on Ingram (obvious) and Diallo (trending) to be a reliable source. I'd be impressed if he called Newmon to Miss St., but I'm not surprised we don't see a single Newman tweet.
doesn't matter. Can't post on the Rafters unless your hard on rages blue.
Looking at his time line leads me to believe this guy said Diallo to KU before anyone else.. I could have missed someone saying this before him, but a day and a half before Diallos announcement he definitively said Diallo to KU is what he was hearing.So you agree that people were calling Diallo to Kansas before StraightHoops and flipping to Kansas the same morning StraightHoops made their tweet?
I post on the National Board and there are some good UK posters there. I came here to get other perspectives on Brown, as there are some very solid posters here, too. I don't think my posting has been out of line.
Adidas = Michigan for Brown. If he goes to UK then I have to assume money is changing hands. If he goes to a Nike school then why go to Kentucky when he can come to a title run ready UNC? If he passes up playing for the best coach in the nation in Roy and playing for an honorable program and learning to live the "Carolina Way" at UNC to go to UK then he has to be getting paid.

Lol. I always assumed lunatics like KUBRICK were the norm for over here. Now I realize that it's simply just KUBRICK. Good stuff going on here.
WTF? Gibberish!!!
Michigan is only in this because Brown is an Adidas mascot.
There, You got the perspective. There's no need to post 500 times here. We get it.
Don't you think he would clarify his mistake, (if he got the info from a fake Twitter account), now that it is publicNo this guy isn't that moronic . Gotta admit with more then just him making it sound like Brown to UK is soon and with the sudden Kirk about face this looks good .
Scout analyst are as reliable as a coked up hooker.Scout analyst confirms that the rumors were false.
I have less than 50 posts here and one could argue I've contributed more than you have. If your mods thought I wasn't contributing, I would already be banned. Drop the hostility.
If this is true then UK wins the title. He puts us over the top with skill and athleticism. Brown with Briscoe and Ulis will be as dynamic a backcourt and wing as UK has ever seen.
No? That's not what I said. I'm saying it takes more than picking Ingram to Duke (obvious) and Diallo to Kansas (trending) to be a credible source.
I'll hold my enthusiasm a bit. I keep remember him saying he is definitely going to an Adidas school.
My sources say the Tigers still suck.

He said that at the McD's game. But he is a teenager, they do change their minds.
Hahahaha okayBrown looks like he plays with some dog in him. Everything that Wiggins was missing. Brown would eat Wiggins's face.
some of you guys need to give hail a break. He's a good poster on the main board and just offering his insight from a different perspective over here. Doing nothing wrong at all.
UNC would be a bad move. They have everyone back. Their best player plays the same position as Brown.
UK has a gaping hole at SF. With that hole filled by Brown, UK is a legit title contender.
What strain is that argubs in your avatar? And hello from Humboldt....Are you having a stroke, tigergage?
Doubtful on this one, though. He's been adamant about the Adidas stuff. Why he feels he owes them anything, however, is beyond me - unless benefits switched hands. All Adidas did (on paper) was provide AAU stuff that any sponsor would likewise provide. Brown speaks as if they gave him a heart transplant.

Nah, but if he needed one, he'd have better surgeons in Ann Arbor than Lexington.![]()
Brown said he visited us several times and it was obvious to him we was 'the top program, facilities, the way we do things, everything professional.' Said he has a lot of respect for the program and you could tell from his comments that it would be hard for him not to come here.
The MI thing is because his coach suggested them because of the way they spread the floor and makes it easier to go one on one. Think his uncle went there and called the school for him and his cousin goes there. His mother went to MI ST so he has a lot of comfort with the family ties to that state.
Read one piece that spoke of his loyalty to adidas and another that said that probably wouldn't be as big as some are making it out to be. So all in all, he seems to have the loyal family pull to MI but his heart seems to be saying UK. And that is strictly just reading different things about him and the way he says things.
His strengths are driving it right, rebounding and defending. Reads more as a combo 3 and 4 instead of a pure 3.
