the hours of uncertainty can produce all kinds of extreme declarations.
He’s single handily going to fix America with this commitment!
This is stupid **** America has officially lost it's damn mind!
Good luck to the kid,We as a fan base have to accept the fact that the idea of winning an NCAA championship is secondary in these kids minds.Nothing wrong with that,sadly,just the sign of the times.
Pretty clear that Makur isn’t serious about college basketball and isn’t serious about getting better. He’s essentially wasting 8-9 months.
The coaching, the pressure, the competition in practice- simply won’t be good enough to make him much better.
But thats OK. The guy will probably end up in the nba regardless. If going hbcu is important, then more power to him.

Good luck kid, his “handlers” have failed him. “I need to make the HBCU movement real so that others will follow. I hope I inspire guys like Mikey Williams to join me on this journey.” I’m sure Mikey will follow in his footsteps too

I wouldn't even waste time recruiting a Maker . Them boys ain't serious about big time basketball.
If I was awake at 4am making a commitment I might even do something as crazy as choose Howard over Kentucky. Maker should’ve waited until 6 and had a cup of coffee first.
That’s really cool of him, best of luck. Kentucky now knows who they’ll be facing in the 1st round of the NCAA tournament
Hey! Outside of Kentucky, the only other team I root for is my alma mater!. HUGE get for the Bison although I still don't think he touches the court. If anything, it puts our name out there.
if there’s reparations made within the tournament selection process. i guess it’s possible.
Good publicity for Howard & other HBCU. Wonder if he'll actually end up playing there, though?
I think you already have a formidable ambassador for Howard University in Kamala Harris.
Better than Ucla! Good luck to him and may the bruins and hoosiers continue to suck forever
Yeah, in my day, we fought for desegregation. Now these stupid kids want to undo it. I'm at a loss for words.
Well, they're all "advised" by Ed Smith. That dude is shady as it gets. He gets his hooks in those African kids early, and bleeds them dry.
I actually like the move... Duke better watch out in the tourney....
Him and zero star PG Rahim Ali make for a powerful recruiting class!
The reality is there's like 2% chance he plays college ball. Prob just a PR move but happy for him and Howard
That Howard v. Norfolk State game on January 18 just got a lot more interesting.
Uh, we aren't segregated. I'm a white male who attended HU and there were plenty like me, especially in our school of law. It's a great school. Seems like there are plenty of misconceptions about the HBCU experience.
May not be the kids but a lot of these international imports coming from poor countries end up with handlers that are strictly in it for a pay day. I wouldn't waste my time with most, perhaps only if the staff had a prior positive relationship with a host family or something like that.
I think this is great if he was not going to come to UK. Would you have been happy if he picked Memphis????? Let that program sink with Penny. He goes to Howard has no influence because he isn't Larry Bird and will have a winning team just because he is on it. So, fade away in college is fine with me.
Maybe we can stop talking about this guy now?
I played AAU basketball on an all-black team (minus me) in the early to mid-2000s. Maybe it was just jealousy from other black parents and players, but none of them experienced racism like I did.

Lol the headline writes itself with him picking a HBCU. Of course some soft sjw would go crying if I said it.
Like Bill said, I don’t get this desire by a lot of black people today, particularly young, to go back to segregation. Hell I’ve seen a bunch of it on twitter where people say they wish it had never ended or that they could go back to being segregated. Maker isn’t talented enough to overcome going to a school like Howard. His stock will drop like a rock.

When it comes to scoring touch inside, I think Sarr and Jackson will be better Makers than Makur Maker.
