Forward Billy Preston signed a letter of intent with Kansas today. He had Indiana, Kansas, Syracuse and USC among his final four choices today. Sort of llke Stanley Johnson, when he committed to Arizona. Always a bridesmaid.
“(Assistant coach Kurtis) Townsend was the point man and did a great job with Billy and his family,” Kansas coach Bill Self said.
In case you didn’t know, Townsend is a former USC assistant coach.
UPDATED: I’m including his announcement video because it sounds like he favors USC until the very end.
We knew this was coming. What we do to others in football, they do us in hoops. I still like Enfield. He can only do so much with USC’s very limited hoops tradition.
True
Imagine all the heartbroken schools over the years who lose kids to USC football – kids USC only recruited for 2-3 weeks when other schools spent 9 months.
Poor Kansas football. They’re 1-9 this year with only 1 victory over the Rhode Island Rams.
Enfield will win one of these one-and-dones sooner or later. I think he’s a really good coach.
Exactly. SC is on the right track. We’ll get one soon or later.
Any word on O’Bannon’s recruitment?
He’s waiting. I have to admit that SC put all their time and effort into some kids that they missed on and now Charles O’Bannon seems like a must get or were f*cked.
SC down by 3 with 7mins left
USC beat aTm by the score of 65-63. If he keeps recruiting the way he is, he will get a very good team that will go far in the tourney
LOL Sammy. Man, I so worried he was coming to bozo u. Hee, Hee.
Now if Andyain’trecruiting/orwinning could just locate Shuckie Buggs.
Hey, you still up? Aren’t you supposed to be sleeping like a little teddy bear by now after taking some potent pain killers in preparation for tomorrow’s devastating and humiliating debacle? LOL!
He will be selling chorros outside the Rose Bowl by the Arroyo Seco bridge Saturday. Remember to tip him a quarter.

‘Cause that zero is too cold for me, Brrr
I’m not tryin’ to be your highness
‘Cause that minus is too low to see, yeah
Nothin’ from nothin’ leaves nothin’
And I’m not stuffin’, believe you me
Don’t you remember I told ya
I’m a soldier in the war on poverty, yeah
Yes, I am

Billy had his issues but he could belt out a tune and he was part of the Beatles rooftop concert
It would have been amazing had USC secured this kid – understand USC mens basketball is NOT at the level of KS mens basketball.
Now contrast that fact with the real question – why is it the mens basketball program at ucla wasn’t even on that list of schools considering the glory they once HAD but haven’t, save once,since 1994?
Because they stop playing the players. Gilbert’s trust account ran out of money. They did buy the Ball boy for one year though.
That dump actually named a fellowship after Gilbert’s wife ‘Rose’…..there never ever is any accountability when it comes to the left (Angela Davis ‘We The Optimists) or corruption (Rose and Sam Gilbert Fellowship).
And you still have Haden on your payroll.
Glass house?
Don’t forget Tokyo Rose.
Wow – funny wikipedia wouldn’t cite her graduating from a US university – none other than bel-air tech then again if you want to read a sanitized version of any progressive left American idol wikipedia always delivers the ‘cover’….
She might not have graduated but she did attend and then went to Japan. Supposedly she was”FORCED” to broad cast.
She did graduate – 1941
Hmmm, Let me think;
Grades, perhaps?
Or could it be that UCLA already has the #2 recruiting class in the land and he doesn’t want to sit on the bench?
We tried. Fact is we’re not a power. And that 1st round loss didn’t sit so well on tv.
Enjoy that Kansas nightlife
HUGE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lucky
Or……We actually are solid basketball team
Yeah, putting up a 25 footer down 1 with 17 seconds to go is brilliant, got lucky to get the ball back after that brain dead move
SKILLS!!!
Whoever took that prayer at the end isn’t very sharp
USC wins 65-63, but that last 25 seconds was horrible basketball by both teams
Lucky win
Fu** Yeah!!!!!!!!
✌✌✌
-Good start 3-0
-Nice win for our tournament resume.
-Melton with the huge 3
-McLaughlin played like a bad a** point guard!
USC 65 TX A&M 63 final!
LOL. Shuckie Buggs had a triple nothing.
Hey Tweaker, Willie Beston signed with Kansas, even though you prognosticated 10 months ago Beston was a lock bozo u recruit.
Everybody wants to play for
Andyain’trecruiting/orwinning.
We’re getting Charles O’Bannon Jr!
– 3-0!
– The swamp is being drained!
– Trump touring America
“Thank you America!”
– Loretta Lynch can’t protect the
Wanky Walrus anymore!
– Ivanka Trump will be the first
woman President!!!!!!!
You’ll recruit the 4 star San Diego Chicken before C. O’Bannion signs with bozo u.
bozo u is a Div. II BB program. Have you forgotten Tweaky, six (6) players (count ’em: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) literally deserted the Andyain’twinning BB team.
Two of Andy’s best player’s went Pro with zero chance of being drafted. But to them it was the preferable option than playing for Andyain’twinning one more second.
Hardly, a glowing reference for the bozo u BB program.
USC beat the crap out of the ruins last year. Guess what squatter, USC will again again the ruins again this year squatter. Besides USC doesn’t buy players like Thug U does.
Just to even be in the mix with those other 3 is a decent sign. Really nice win tonight. Enfield and crew seem to have a decent idea of what they’re doing and more recruits hopefully pay attention going forward.
well, there goes four season’s worth of sarcastic Beatles references by the Master of Baiting, the wolfman!!!
#YouGottaHaveSomethin’
So this blogger doesn’t cover basketball games and scores, but only recruiting?
I seen Wolf eating a hot dog last season at the Cal Poly game. He loves his relish. At first I thought it was Mikhail Gorbachef.
If you feed him chicken after midnight he becomes a gremlin.
Just another Btech lemming!
Tweaky, where’s Shuckie Buggs?
