Excellent. Welcome, Xavier!
September 9th, 2015 at 2:41 PM ^
I hate when they do this. Let the kid have his moment.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:51 PM ^
Of course they could not. Twitter has either completely ruined breaking news or helped it, depending on how you see things and the the subject matter. It's great for certain things, but horrible for others.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:54 PM ^
I don't really have a problem with the whole twitter thing.
However, they are saying that his AAU coach leaked his decision before he even announced it at his press conference thing. That's messed up.
September 9th, 2015 at 3:12 PM ^
AKA his father, but no his father didn't leak it out.
September 9th, 2015 at 4:09 PM ^
Oh I knew he was Lima's coach, but didn't know he coached the King James team also. And shame on me for believing something on twitter.
Thanks for the info.

Is this part of McDonald's new advertising campaign?

Not that Mister Simpson
September 9th, 2015 at 2:43 PM ^
Simpson, eh?
September 9th, 2015 at 2:44 PM ^
I literally had not heard of this kid two hours ago. Wow.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:44 PM ^
This is great news. Just started watching tape and, yup, he looks awesome.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^
September 9th, 2015 at 2:47 PM ^
Welcome Mr. Simpson. Look forward to seeing you in the MAIZE and Blue.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:47 PM ^
Which happened first? The rescheduling by Winston or them taking a commitment from Simpson?
September 9th, 2015 at 3:47 PM ^
attemted to reschedule his visit and Beilein took matters into his own hands. This is awesome news and credit Beilein for pulling it off.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:48 PM ^
September 9th, 2015 at 3:18 PM ^
must. have. attention.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:49 PM ^
Crazy. I thought we were down to Lucas or Aiken for sure. M wasn't even listed in Simpson's final four YESTERDAY. What a turn around.
September 9th, 2015 at 3:02 PM ^

Man he looks small. probably closer to 5'9" than 5'11". His game looks real smooth though.

Well at least thhat size means he is not going to leave early.
September 9th, 2015 at 4:55 PM ^
This is what I thought about Lucas. I think he looked even smaller than this kid.
Simpson's game seems smooth as you said and also very in control, like everything he's doing has a purpose. Seem's to tease the defense to see whats there and make a smart play each time. Good quality in a PG.

He looks to be a great pick and roll player in Coach B's system. For some reason Scoonie Penn is the first player that comes to mind when watching his highlight film.
September 9th, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
Great news! Love his game.

He is clearly better than Winston comments can begin now.
