Even though everyone knew he was there, I don't understand that they put Lathan and Ace on the board, then Ron, but did not put Dylan's name up there(or did I miss it) to get his own ovation?

Best of Luck,
Groz

It was a bad oversight by the people responsible for having the recruits shown on the center court message board screen.Dylan Harper is a elite recruit from NJ and I bet he kept saying when is my picture going to be shown?

dylan hasn’t signed yet so announcing him would have been considered an NCAA violation.

Ron being announced with Dylan behind him is perfectly fine substitute.

We addressed this in a different thread already but Lathan and Ace signed. Dylan didn’t, they can’t talk about him.

I didn't realize Terry Copeland left BC for a prep school in SC. Still uncommitted.

Love Ron hanging around so much I think had he played one more year his number would’ve been retired and his personal accolades would’ve ascended to a national level.

Only if he became an All-American. That's the Rutgers rule for retiring numbers.
