Everyone keep thinking, we could only get 2 of them, I remember seeing they were trying to get all 3, and many people think its impossible because they are 3 similar players. But Arizona who already has Grant Jarrett, they are Brandon Ashley leader by far, and they leading with Kaleb Tarczewski(along with Kansas), all 3 bigs all 3 5-stars, so not completely out the realm of possibility, to get all 3 in this case, stokes, goodwin, parker .
That was one long sentence
To summarize we could get Stokes, Goodwin and Parker.
Kansas is leading for Kaleb T., now its not impossible for AZ to get him of course.

I basically said we have a shot at landing all 3. I gave Arizona has an example how they are recruiting 3 bigs, and has a legit chance with having all 3. And Kaleb is down to Arizona and Kansas, and depending who you read it from, either one is the leader. My point is we just don't have to be 2 out of 3, we could legitimately get all, it one point they each have played with each other, and said they like playing with each other. Also, I heard they are friends as well, so if we just get 2 out of 3, then so be it. But, we shouldn't just settle for 2, if St. John can get 4 top 100(3 top 50) SF, why can't we get 3 top 30 bigs for 2 post positions?
P.S. Most of the time i'm typing it's either i'm rushing getting ready for work, or late at night.

I heard UK was in there really good as well.
As far as Memphis, I think we get Parker +1 and Stokes. Poythress is who I would like that +1 to be FWIW, but Goodwin is also a solid possibility by all accounts.

If I'm not mistaken he cut UK from his list, not to long ago, and I'll take Porythess in a heartbeat, but I remember Easterwood said it's not going to happen. Until recently, when I heard Brooks interview, I thought we were out with Alex.
UK is out for Kaleb T.
and as far as the "Big 3" go...I don't know where its been said that all three couldn't potentially become a part of this program, it all depends on who leaves and what the staff finds necessary to bring in the fold...along with what the players decide is best for them.
The Memphis program will be in good hands for some time. I know its tearing us all apart trying to speculate where recruiting is atm, but sometimes it just takes a bit to unfold. It's not even the early signing period yet lol.
Gotta love the interest though, that's what makes this such a great program.
We should start calling it the Big 4, and add Poythress. It looks like we are in a little better position with him then a lot of people thought.
I'm not sure if we can get all 4 of them though, just to many highly rated players at a similar position, but I think we have a very good chance at getting 3.

Understandable. Thanks man.
One scenario that nobody seems to be thinking about is Goodwin going on a football scholarship and walking on the basketball team to save schollies. Sounds doubtful but is a possibility. I think we'll get Parker, from all the talks from insiders, and Stokes will be a Tiger. A class of Parker, Stokes and Goodwin would be top 5 for certain and the brick laying to a national champion run by 2013.
