I saw them, but figured he wouldn't make that drastic of a move out of state.

There is no shot he finishes his career at Country Day. He'll transfer somewhere out of Louisiana.

Isn't the coach at Country Day Maker's legal guardian? If that is the case, why would he go anywhere?

He's not going anywhere and he WILL probably end up at UNO.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Country day has done so much for the kid and his family there is no shot he would leave the school.

I think so ... I know that they both are on the same AAU team that as won two national championships in a row .. The coach of that team has a son that plays for CD ... He is also responsible for Thon Maker being here in the states and is the biggest donor that UNO basketball has ever seen ...

That s why I say Thon is headed to UNO ... Sure, he is ranked as one of the best prospects in his class and ANYTHING can happen but the kid will b under UNBELIEVABLE pressure to go to UNO.

Why anyone ranked highly would realistically consider UNO and why a coach or mentor or whatever would pressure a kid to attend UNO is mind boggling and sad. And who cares where he plays high school basketball? That shite doesn't even matter.

yeah, he tried but was no where close to meeting the academic standards. Also, Thon would never go to UNO. Corchiani couldn't pay him any amount of money for him to play at UNO.

Unless he completely falls off the radar, he isn't going to UNO. Now he might not be going to LSU, either, but top 100 players don't go to UNO, even if they're fathers are the head coach or athletic director.
