Booker to UCLA

Interesting choice for XB, given that Cronin is very defensive-minded. Maybe it’s all about the number.
 
Wow Conwell, Booker, Indiana kids saying no. UCLA had no NiL money now they have two additions one being maybe a all American.
 
I would have taken Booker. But that was under the assumption that after 2 years, he is still a question mark. Definitely a guy you can’t overpay. After signing Enright first ( I know we have Tucker), I’d like the next signing to be a bigger splash. Someone we can use to convince subsequent recruits that we will be competitive.
So I don’t see passing on Booker as a miss. Bidunga is a different matter. But he seems to want to be with a blueblood. Right now, that ain’t us.
 
UCLA has 6 in the portal and they land Booker in return. Perfect example of why Mick Cronin should never have been mentioned during the coaching search.
