After his official visit to the #Badgers last weekend, Lima (OH) HS four-star PG Xavier Simpson is set to announce http://t.co/J3WhCnjvKE

Really the only connection between UC and Simpson was the AAU coach saying "wherever Cumberland goes, Xavier Simpson goes." Yet neither player said that, and UC never even went after him nor offered. This thread could've been killed a while ago lol.

I grew up in Findlay, OH, Northwest Ohio close to Lima. I had a couple people at his game a few days ago. He hit the game winning shot. Just look at his speed, handles, and quickness. That is the kind of guard I want. We haven't had since Downey. His other highlights are legit. He reminds me of the guards of UConn like Boatwright and Napier etc. I think we made the mistake not looking at this kid. Especially since he is tight with Cumberland.

Without knowing anything, this makes more scents.

You know why they didn't recruit Simpson at all? Or was he just not interested? Seems like they are really trying to get a driving guard in this class by going after the Ottey kid from Canada. Hmm...Simpson would have been nice..

The two sides talked a couple times. They did show interest, but with Troy as the starting PG and Jenifer signed and enrolled at that point there wasn't a fit from either side. Even if UC went after Simpson full blast, he wasn't coming here. Once that was decided, both moved on...

This is just my opinion and a total assumption but, Simpson > Jennifer when it's all said and done. I would love to be wrong.
