2016 is really peculiar. I checked in on De'Aaron Fox's twitter, and he didn't say a word about his visit to LSU. Meanwhile he was gushing over Calipari's in home visit. It seems pretty telling, but he may be shooting for the shock factor. By the way he visited LSU last weekend.

---

He wasn't gushing about the in home itself. It had more to do with the fact that he let a disabled UK fan who goes to his school meet Calipari. Fox is extremely low key. No one knows anything on what Fox will do.

Seems like the recruiting "insiders" all feel like Abdul Ado is LSU bound, which would be awesome. It'd be nice to get an athletic center that is prototypical for our style.

---

Ado is very likely at this point. He'll decide before the early signing period.

Jaylen Fisher seems to be really big on LSU too. I feel like we take him too.

If we can land an OV I'll feel really good about landing Fisher.

I'm still puzzled as to why Jarreau and Grisham eliminated LSU. My positive spin is that at least they aren't State or Bama bound, who could actually build a deep pipeline if we aren't careful. Also it's very possible we're just slow playing the two in confidence for big fish we're not aware of.

Jarreau wants to play PG and we're recruiting Fox and Fisher for that position. We want Jarreau as a 2 guard, but he ain't havin it. So he'll go to a lesser program and jack up shots on NIT bound teams. Kind of like Malik Newman.
