Good on Peters, we shouldn't be recruiting kids who commit to Valpo.
Best of luck on Findlay Prep
Findlay Prep (a basketball program that finds a high school to attach itself to) draws recruiters the way blood in the water draws sharks, so there are no easy gets there. Schilling (6'9", 227 lbs.), a well-traveled kid from Chicago (freshman year in Chicago, sophomore year in Germany (!), junior year at a different school in Chicago, and now a senior in Nevada), hasn't attracted the big guns, but has offers from a small army of high majors scattered all over the country. (Reported to have offered him: Auburn, DePaul, Illinois, Kansas State, Minnesota, Northwestern, Oregon State, Penn State, Providence, TCU, USC, Vanderbilt, and Washington State.) In contrast to Peters, we don't have to worry about his willingness to travel; the problem with Schilling is to stand out in the midst of the recruiting stampede.
Fallou Ndoye (6'11", 215 lbs., played last year at Faith Baptist School in Florida) is reported to be still somewhat raw but with a huge upside and a strong work ethic. Mississippi State, USC, and Virginia Tech have offered him, but a number of other high majors have an eye on him. The crowd isn't as big as Schilling's, but it will grow rapidly if he continues to develop this season (assuming he doesn't sign in the autumn period).

I always had the feeling that BC was sort of a wild hair in Peters' recruiting; he certainly gave enough indications that he'd like to stay close to home, and Valparaiso is about 3 hours' drive. I expect he'll have a successful career there.
BC's 2013 recruiting is now wide open again; anybody have any word on the most likely possibilities?
Noah Vonleh?
Talked to a college coach last week. BC is absolutely in play for Vonleh
I'm unquestionably too old to run naked through the streets screaming, but if Vonleh were to commit to BC and I were an undergraduate, I would seriously consider it.
