Northwestern is on the short list for four-star 2017 small forward Jordan Nwora...but it's a pretty long short list.

Deering: what do the grapes mean?

(It was you tracking Twitter language, right?)

I think he just picked it because they're purple. Usually, kids use the purple devil emoji, which sorta looks like a Cat.

The only pattern I see is lots of warm weather schools. But, hopefully the other factors are more important. I totally understand the weather piece-I went from California to NU. But, hopefully the other factors: the coaches, the opportunity/where the program is currently, the City, the access to Doug C,, the quality degree, will all be the biggest factors.

Compared to Buffalo, NU might be considered a warm weather school. Distance from home doesn't seem a factor here.

So now warm weather is a factor if you're playing basketball? Sheesh, part of the reason Naismith invented basketball is so that athletes would have a way of keeping in shape during cold weather.

So Nwora to Louisville... And NCAA charges are due any day. (Although I'm not sure what that will mean at the end of the day.)
