I'm not saying Ahmed isn't athletic; I'm saying from what I've read/seen, he's not as athletic as Shaq. Shaq has hops as good as anyone in the country. I'm pretty sure his head can hit the rim. Not sure Ahmed can do that. If he could, you have to feel like he'd have been rated higher than a 2-star out of high school. I certainly understand the comparison; I'm just giving small differences. I think Ahmed has big-time potential.

Shaq is a freak athlete no question about that, but it seems like shaq has always been to fast for himself and can't play with in himself, if anything shaq can slow down a little bit. Ahmed looks extremely athletic as well he looks like a better ball handler than shaq, I don't think he is as tall as shaq but it's a good comparison

@AdamZagoria: "JUCO wing Bashir Ahmed tells me he no longer plans to visit Louisville. Has visited Cincinnati and St. John's."

Wonder if that has anything with the hooker allegations over the weekend, or if Louisville just stopped pursuing him.

@DTV89: "@ChadBrendel Ahmed down to UC/St Johns? Where do you guess he's leaning?"
@ChadBrendel: "Coin flip from everything I've heard. Tough kid to get a read on."

Any update on a decision time here? Seems like he would be making an announcement if he is not planning on additional visits.

I know St Johns was picked to finish dead last this year in the "Big East". Not sure why Bashir wants to go to that dumpster. UC all day, its a no brainer

From yesterday:

@ryanbetscher21: @ChadBrendel Ahmed cancelling his Louisville visit a good sign for UC?
@ChadBrendel: Will find out in a few weeks. If he pushes decision to spring not sure Mick will wait.

He is 100% crystal balled to St. John's on 247 which is probably a good thing for us considering how accurate that is...

Yup, this is going to be a process.

@AdamZagoria
Hutchinson College wing Bashir Ahmed took an unofficial to Oklahoma State last week. Says Texas and Texas A&M also recruiting him.

He's already visited here, there isn't much more for the staff to do.
