Some dude said he was going to be better than his brother, I doubt it but I hope I get proved wrong

Hopefully, when he misses a shot, the LU old timers won't be chanting, "Your daddy was better." :oldhag

I havn't heard that anywhere Dom. It's possible you may be thinking about the youngest Gordon brother, who is still a pup, but "some dude" (his father) says he is better than either Eric or Evan at the same age.

Who'd he get offers from? Everything on the first link lists schools and says no interest.

Butler and Kent State. I'm not sure if Xavier offered or not, but the were hot on his trail.

There hasn't been an NLI signed. That period ended last week. Technically, until he enrolls in his first class, he can still choose to go anywhere that he wants.

That's troubling. So did we get him or not? HMO says it's a done deal for us, and I hope he's right.

One thing positive for us, these other reports are dated 5/26/09.

Whereas before the reports that he is coming to LU said he had signed, in which case it had to happen by the 20th, now they say it is a strong verbal commit. You would think that Hargrave would have accurate information, but who knows. That seems to be the only mention of Duquesne anywhere. Maybe it was another Hargrave player who signed with them.

See BJ is a Hargrave (and LU) alum, this sounds like the perfect opportunity for him to do some "investigative reporting".

Hargrave had a really good team this year. Looks like they lost 1 game to Patterson Prep. Lots of D1 signees too.

I think he's asking why are your fingers crossed if it's a done deal?
