Any indication he has interest in BC?
If Dillard (6'5", 205, Gary, IN, Bowman Academy) has any interest in BC, it will be a complete reversal of form. All his schools of interest at present are within several hours' drive of his home. Purdue has been going after him hard and appears to have the inside track at present. The only good thing is that BC is a total outlier in Dillard's recruiting picture; if he wants to really get away from home, BC would appear to have no competition.
Dillard is a strong and hyperathletic slasher, a highlight-film dunker with a so-so perimeter game. He also has a temper; he knocked a teammate unconscious in a preseason fight in the school gym during practice, and was suspended for the first three games of the season. If he can keep himself under control, he would undoubtedly give a boost to BC's toughness factor, but I have to rate him an unlikely recruit.
While we're on the subject of recruiting, Steve Enoch just visited BC at the end of a whirlwind four-day tour that also took him to UConn, Providence, and URI. Today he's down in NJ visiting Seton Hall. If BC wins this recruiting battle, it might be the most earthshaking event in New England since the 18th-century Cape Ann earthquake.
