VIDEO - Good Grief!
I don't say this lightly...but this kid may just be the best overall basketball recruit to ever set foot on the Mizzou campus when you factor in his size and that he's only a sophomore, to be that skilled and do that much from all over the court...woah.
Love the aggressiveness of bringing him here straight off his visit to ku, and I love that it coincides with Fulford's first day in CoMo as an assistant. Fulford and Fuller should tag team the hell out of this kid, of course it should be a long shot with a recruit of this magnitude but then again, why is he in town if he's not interested? Go for it boys. This would be a program changer.
Oh and for people who care about such things, he is ranked the #3 player in the country by Rivals for Class of 2016 but apparently there's some chance he could reclassify to 2015.

#1 player in the nation per ESPN.
I'm not putting anything past KA at this point. He has proven me wrong on so many fronts already. He has sold Mizzou, himself and the program at a high enough level to keep Fuller and land Fulford. What's to say him and Fuller and Fulford can't sell Mizzou, himself and the program to recruits. Even if it's not Maker, Mizzou is being discussed in relation to a lot of kids that we were not in on and would not have been in on under Haith and crew. Will be interesting to see how it all shakes out.

I bet I could beat him in the bench press.

same here, and yet he probably dribbles better than I ever could, our strength program would do him wonders, too..

He definitely looks like a KD clone.

Wow another awesome player we won't get.

At least he's looking. That's an improvement

Final Four if they do get him.
