The UConn board is having this same discussion about Waters. Worth a read if you have a couple minutes.

Latest Predictions from 247Sports.com:

DePaul 35%
MSU 30%
Arizona 15%
Creighton 10%
Foggy 10%

If you're looking for some hope, 247Sports' best and third best "predictors" this recruiting season - who are leading a competition the website has among their 93 "experts" - have Bowen going to Creighton. So, you're telling me there's a chance!!

I don't think he's coming to Creighton, but trying to predict with this particular recruit is almost random at this point.

A lot of these predictions were made a long time ago though. All seven predictions in the last 19 days have been DePaul.

According to what I saw, the list was updated yesterday (May 8). But that could mean many different things.

Also, I see someone started a "Did Tugs Commit Yet" Twitter page. The account only tweets "No" or "Not yet." Kinda funny...

Go to the hoops forum and find the Waters thread. Start on page 22 or thereabouts

Yeah but it unfortunately includes a LOT of old predictions in those percentages (Arizona and Michigan State haven't garnered a prediction since March).
I try and go off of recency on those things, and it's trending 100% DePaul right now. However, the Oregon trip isn't factored into that, and I think the DePaul trend is overstated.

How a basketball fan justifies and puts credence by following "predictor" websites that have as much accuracy as a Ouija board is baffling.
Whatever floats you're boat.

Not saying I am using the 247sports crystal ball as the Bible, but it's a tool nonetheless. I think Bowen has proven that no one's opinion truly matters

It's information. That's all it is. The recruiting sites are made up of writers and "predictors" who tend to have more access to information. They do this shit for a living. I don't think anyone "relies" on the predictions, but rather enjoy seeing what the popular thinking is among such writers. Again, it's just information.

If trashing people for being interested in reading about potential Creighton recruits is your contribution to the board, maybe you should read more and post never. That's a much more "baffling" position.
