And yeah, we had an "in" with Talor, but...
…look at the other schools these kids are going to: Duke, Duke, Villanova, Georgetown, Wake Forest, UNC, Maryland, Duke, Tennessee, and…Penn State.

Don't mean to be a Debbie downer but....
Let’s just hope he sticks with the commitment – and if he does, not transfer after Battle is down with his eilgibility ….cough crispin brothers cough
How could Nixon know so little about Watergate and so much about football ?
I think the feel of this team is very different.
The team just seemed to be falling apart with transfers at the time Crispin transferred, Ed has the team building towards improvement and I just don’t think kids are going to transfer like Crispin did. If Buie can have a decent team to lead he will have no motivation to be anywhere else vs being the only good player on a crappy team.
They don’t have the tradition to hold our nuts
Everything I've read
about the family atmosphere of the team and from the family tells me that Buie is in it to finish what his brother has started. There is even another Buie who wants to play baseball for PSU.

You need a new perspective
The worry isn’t whether he will transfer out after Battle graduates but whether he will opt for the NBA draft after 1 or 2 years.

Thats something
I never thought I’d have to think about as a PSU B-Ball fan.
Black Shoes.
Basic Blues.
No Name.
All Game.
Yeah, but Jon Crispin SUCKED.
Outside of one good game at Rupp Arena, that is, where we beat Kentucky on their home floor. Beyond that? Meh.

here’s to 3 or 4 years of me mispronouncing his name

I know the first name is Tay-Ron
but is the last name “Bue-ee” or “Boo-ee”?

heh, guess I didn't know his first name, then :-p
btw, please don’t maul him

Thanks, RR.
This is now twice in the past 24 hours I’ve had my website linked to. I wonder when was the last time this happened with any site?

Anyone know...
Is this the first five star player we’ve ever had a commit from?
Regardless, after last year, the pride of this struggling program that somehow pulled off making it to a championship tourney at the NIT, and the heart that the players showed I’m halfway considering buying season student tix for the b-ball games this year. Any thoughts? Should I just try to get GA tickets?
I wouldn't be surprised to find out
that he’s our first 4-star commit
by The JuggerNitt on Jun 2, 2009 2:19 PM EDT up reply actions
I would have agreed
but I just looked it up. Jeff Brooks was the only 4 star commit I see via Scout that we’ve had since 2002 (that’s as far as their history goes back)
More or less.
Lisicky was pretty well regarded, but not 5 star.
