I've heard the only reason BYU and Utah recruited Yoeli

Was because he was good friends with Frank Jackson. Just trying to get a recruiting advantage by pairing them together. I also heard from high school coaches in his region that he is difficult to coach. Not sure I really want this kid if Frank Jackson goes elsewhere from everything I have heard and seen in his game.

Man, it would be hard for me to turn down Princeton.

For school, sure, but for basketball and school?

Probably depends on major. Vandy better academically overall

Vandy better than Princeton? Nah.

8/1/15 5:29pm

I was comparing vandy to BYU. Not to Princeton

thebruce

8/1/15 5:30pm

Gotcha. Vandy is definitely a more prestigious university than BYU.

8/1/15 5:35pm

Yeah. Unless I was a freak of nature that was practically assured of an NBA

I thought Ivy League schools don't offer sports scholarships?

8/1/15 8:03pm

They don't. They just make certain you have the means to attend. Every case is

8/1/15 9:53pm

And they are very keen on minority grants.

Honestly, I find the fretting over undergrad to be fairly amusing

don't you have to pay your own way at Ivy League schools?

JOPE

8/1/15 5:33pm

They don't give athletic "scholarsips", but, if they want you to attend, they...

8/1/15 6:30pm

I know for a fact that Utah did not want him without Jackson

Boomer

8/1/15 8:19pm

One of Utah's patented uncommitable offers right?

8/1/15 8:24pm

Well, you speak for Utah then. You are wrong about BYU.
