Ppl(NBA Scouts & GM's) know who he is and they'll be sure to keep an eye on him where ever he decides to go. I don’t think his decison will come down to exposure, he’s had plenty of it.

I'd go to KU now if my priority was a title. But this kid has a one and done mindset from everything written (least what I've seen). For that you wouldn't think he'd wanna be around a Henry, Collins, & Aldrich. Personally, I don't really trust Lance to pair the priorities he's cited in making a decision with the school that best fits that choice. Maryland is everything he's wanted. ACC exposure, first-rate facilities, a good but not great cast in which he can be featured, a great coach, and by chance he'd open with a great inaugural appearance in Maui. No chance any logical fan would argue MD vs KU on talent next season. But MD fits every description he's laid out when making a choice. The fact he hasn't made it by now, leads me to believe he's not sold on MD. And I don't even remember who said it but the Kentucky comparison is weak sauce. They sold their souls when they picked up Calipari, their excitement emanates from knowing every recruit in the book is now in their hip pockets. At least when Maryland sucks it's because they're not getting players. His decision is probably gonna come down more to exposure. I’d go to KU now if my priority was a title.

Debate Stephenson's college destination and Maryland's 10' prospects with like three Maryland fans and render stereotypical judgement. Oh yeah, that’s real accurate.

And if Lance really wanted to win a title in the one year he is going to be in college...why wouldn't he still want to come to KU? Either way everyone knows that KU is the front runner for the title.

Lets argue basketball between Maryland and KU, that would really go in your favor. No, i'm not that bored, thanks though. We both know how that would go. Ha, yes.

Looks like Maryland has a 2-0 record against KU in basketball too. Played each other twice, and Maryland has won both, once in the Final Four. By the way…….here’s a stat for you.

Maryland also has the second best fans, and they are rated the 18th best academically of all public schools. (Kansas is 40th.) These aren't my opinions. They are the Princeton Review rankings.
