You are old but you just have not figured that out yet. I do not know if he is a relative of your favorite MAC player

Hopefully Coach Boals' connection can help reel him in.

Gary Sr is the reason my high school had to install breakaway rims back in the day. Every time he dunked, they had to stop the game for 5 minutes until the backboards stopped shaking.......

 

[LitlBuck]

He is the son of the "shaq of the MAC" and has known Boals since he was seven years old. Speaks very highly of Ohio State and of Coach Boals. He also cheers for Ohio State when they play TSUN in football which is always a good thing. We are is currently there and he is really a baller!

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Gary Trent Jr. walked off the floor inside the Kentucky Basketball Academy after scoring 36 points. Coaches from Duke, Michigan State, Wichita State, Minnesota and others followed soon after.

The Nike Elite Youth Basketball League was winding down the second night of its second session in Lexington. The coaches were off to watch other games in other corners of the building. It's likely they were thinking about what they just saw from Trent along the way.

As he continues to rise up recruiting boards, Trent hopes to leave lasting impressions like the one he left Saturday night when he shot 10-for-15, 8-for-12 from three-point range and couldn't be stopped in a game against Team Texas Elite.

Is Ohio State the favorite to land four-star 2017 Minnesota SG Gary Trent Jr.? Buckeyes recruiting

Gary Trent wants five-star package deal with Wendell Carter, what's it mean for the Buckeyes? Ohio State basketball recruiting

thought we might have a chance of landing him but if he wants to bring someone with him I do not see it happening because of the numbers even if Carter is a 5*

It doesn't matter because Trent is going to Duke.

So you are not putting much substance into the Boals influence

I'm with NorthCoast on this one, just feels a lot like the Okafor-Jones bromance with him and Carter.

 

[MaxBuck]

Apparently hasn't yet committed. Should be plenty of PT available for him immediately should he wish to travel south to Columbus but not continue further to Durham.

 

[NorthCoastKid]

We didn't have much of a shot with this kid to begin with, but Boals leaving likely puts the nail in the coffin.

Yup,, he is probably all Doookie

 

[Tlangs]

Let's put the blame in the right place here. Randy Ayers really blew this recruitment by not signing his dad back in '92.

NOPE!
