Why did Macura shun the Gophers?

Creighton and Xavier had visited Macura yesterday. I don't believe that Jerry Meyer bit at all. I think Creighton was the clear second choice. I think the school size was a very big factor. A Xavier education is around 200,000 grand. I also think that the fact that basketball is the main thing at Xavier, Creighton and Butler is a big thing as well.

Chris Monter

I can see it.
 

That's a bush league response worthy of a Badger fan. We cooled on him, yeah....

I'll believe it when Whitehead and Vaughn are on the roster in 2014.

Not saying it's true, but Jerry Meyer isn't a Minnesota guy. Him saying we held off isn't the same thing as a Badger fan saying they cooled on a recruit.
 

I don't know what Macura's thoughts were, but it was an Ignatius decision.
 

Because he wanted to stick it to Jim Souhan by committing to Chris Mack.
 




I thought he wanted to play up tempo basketball. Sometimes we think the BIG is slow tempo( especially with sconnie) but the big east always seems to be a grind it out conference IMO.
