He very well may up at a prep school next year and a 2012 recruit.

If true this is going to be....

BASKETBALL ORGASM (Can I say that here?). Seriously, if this is confirmed I'm going to stop working and start celebrating big time.

It's very true. Confirmed by both Scout and Rivals.

Ohhhh My Lord. UNBELIEVABLE! For those like me that attended XU prior to the 90's, this is just beyond our immagination. The Xavier Nation has done such an amazing job. Congrats.

It seems he is going to be a 2011. I did not know we had the space. I guess we will make the space.

I think he is going to reclassify to the 2012 class.

Can't confirm was a source but feel like its a strong possibility.

Can you imagine next year's team??? Holy Cow.

PG - Tu, Lyons, Davis
SG - Lyons, Redford, Wells
SF - Martin, Canty, Wells
PF - Taylor, Latham, Robinson, Reynolds
C - Frease, Chandler

BIG TIME talent at every position!

Chandler is a true center at 6'10 with athleticism and skill. Sweet!!

I think that's even better. I'm going to let my boss (that's me) know I will put my work on hold and get my rum and coke out. The situation calls for it. Cheers!

How good is next season's recruiting class..Wow.

This is incredible.

This kid was going to Louisville and decommitted for some reason (you can fill in your own reason)...Rivals was talking a lot about him leaning towards going to UK...then I heard they backed off because his grades weren't so great and they are actually sweating their GPA right now...and then all kinds of schools were after him (Georgetown, Providence, W. Va.)

I think it's great that XU is getting him. He made the right choice!

In Chris Mack's first four recruiting classes...how many four star recruits? This is some kind of a roll.

I believe it was ESPN that ranked the X recruiting class at number 10 after this commit. Obviously X will drop back if he is 2012 but the 2012 class will be that much better.

Shouldn't matter to X which class he is part of as the team has plenty of depth next year at all positions. Frease might be the only true Center (without Chandler) but the talent and depth at PF is more than enough for the team to thrive without Chandler next season.

I have heard he will stay in '11 if he can qualify, which, everyone knows, isn't terribly likely. He'd be a HUGE addition for next year if they can get it done, but otherwise, he steps right in for Kenny in '12-'13.

I like the idea that recruits are publicly stating their desire to help us get to a Final 4. That's what happens when you are in 3 straight Sweet 16's.

I can't wait to get there.

Chandler was seated next to Jalen Reynolds on ther bench Saturday night and it appears the big fella from Detroit got his first XU assist! Congrats Jalen!!!

I can see him going to the NBA as a result of the committment to XU, if he works hard and buys in to the Xavier Way.

Yeah, he never would have made the NBA had he stayed with UL or decided on UK or West Virginia.

Come on folks, I know the "Xavier Way" is a big deal, but let's not lose sight of reality. Michael Chandler will end up in the NBA via Xavier or John Carroll. He is a beast! Now, let's hope and pray that a year from now we just got done watching him at Musketeer Madness (maybe, God forbid, in front of a packed house this time) and he isn't in a prep school somewhere for an extra year!

I am so pumped about this commitment.

I read last night that this guy didn't even start playing organized ball until he was a freshman in high school. Not sure if that is true, but it was in an Enquirer blog, so I assume it is.

If he can become the #4 Center in the country in 3 years of organized ball, just imagine the improvement and potential this guy has. This could be such a huge get for us.

Actually, to be fair, it's sort of exactly what you said. That he can make the NBA as a result of committing to Xavier, working hard, and adopting the Xavier Way. Or thereabouts. That is directly inferring he would not make the NBA without those things.
10-26-2010, 11:03 AM

BigMoe, I have to disagree. It is not saying that he cannot make the NBA by going to another school but that he can by coming to X. You inferred that but it was not inferred by the author.

I've always rolled my eyes a bit when I hear about "the Xavier way". IMHO, "the Xavier Way" is just hire a coaching staff and athletic department that will work really, really hard.

I do think it's true though that some schools seem to do a better job at developing players. Brian Gregory is widely regarded as a good coach. Yet, I think it's true that he doesn't really have a great record of developing players. Chris Wright should be an NBA player. Yet he lacks the polish of an NBA player and it's questionable if he will ever step foot on an NBA court.

From what people have been saying about Chandler for the last year or so, it sounds very likely that he will need a year of prep school first (no inside information, but that has been the talk in Indiana for some time). I am preparing myself for Chandler being a 2012 recruit (which means we have quite the start on that class); if he gets here a year earlier, that is just a bonus!

Regardless, this is going to be fun to watch.

Truth be told, I could care less what he inferred as it certainly isn't worth the time it takes me to type this. But to say: "...as a result of...." most assuredly infers that coming to Xavier (and the rest of the pollyana Xavier Way stuff) will be how he gets to the NBA. Agree, disagree, it's all good.

I think you two are are both inferring that you can't stand each other, and you would fight to the death if you were to meet in real life. That's just the vibe I was picking up... :p

But neither should be entered in the thread with hot women fighting to the death. They'll only mess it up.

Hope Someone is Checking Chandler's Core Courses

It seems Justin Martin was ruled a partial qualifier because a course he passed at Lawenece North High School was not acceptable to the NCAA and not because he did poorly in the course. Since Michael Chandler also attends Lawence Horth HS, odds are he has, or will take, the same course. Not sure how our coaching staff can have much effect on this situation; especially with the past reports of LN HS coach's hard feelings towards Mack. Has this been discussed earlier?
