Josiah Turner Sets Visits

Oakland Soldiers point guard Josiah Turner is lining up his visits.

“He’s going to Louisville, Kansas, UConn, Oregon and Arizona,” said Soldiers coach Derrick Artis.

Here’s how the visits break down:

Sept. 4 – Louisville

Sept. 10/11 – UConn

Sept. 17 – Oregon (tentative)

Oct. 15 – Kansas

Oct. 22 – Arizona

Turner’s mother, Doris Ward, said he is also considering Oklahoma and UCLA, but he has already visited UCLA unofficially.

“I don’t have any  leaders or favorites,” Turner said recently. “That’s my top [schools].”

He says he won’t decide until “after I go on my officials.”

The Soldiers had a tremendous summer, winning tournaments in Las Vegas (Fab 48)  and Anaheim (Pumps), the latter without Turner.

Wherever he goes, Turner says he’ll bring “a point guard that can score.”

  • What will Self tell this point guard?

    What will Self tell his staff on Turner?

    Get him or your fired.
    LMAO…he did the same thing with Josh S.

    With all that stuff going on at Kansas Gangster U… more and more are opening their eyes.

    Did Lew get blackmailed by the bb folks?
    Or was it a nice setup.

    What did Lew steal? remind us ,again.

    Note:
    Will the college of Louiville get Pitino by JT.
    LMAO

  • Idiot

  • hahaha….love this Jesse Wildcat guy

  • Jessie, that was a really weak effort (even for a tard like you.

    Oct. 15 – Kansas (Late Night) Turner’s second straight year attending Late Night in Lawrence. Jessie, I don’t think anybody from the KU staff has anything to worry about.

  • Woody,

    Let me ask YOU this and let all the folks from the EAST COAST understand it clearly.

    Billie stated that HE will NOT comment on Josh S., a few days ago.

    Billie has made several comments about Josh, in the previous months.

    SO, FROM THE FOLKS in the WEST,
    Bill is throwing Josh S. under the bus.

    Bill is NOT supporting JOSH.
    Billie is running away from JOSH.

    This is clear as DAY.

    ps-
    It does not matter what BIll tell Josh, in private.
    In the public eye, Bill Self is not BACKING Josh.

    If you were a player, do YOU want to play for this two face tactic coach and Gangster U…

    East Coast…had to find out the HARD WAY.

  • When did Jessie become a college basketball insider? Classic case of recruiting envy if i’ve ever heard it. This is the same Jessie who said UofA was getting Selby, Jones and Lamb…and all they got was probation. Enjoy being average in the below average Pac 10.

  • Still laughing at an Az fan calling another program “Ganster U”. Forget all the illegal recruiting tactics that just landed them sanctions, and just look at their roster.

  • Jessie, I know that Josh going to KU is still something that eats at you, but it’s probably time to let it go. He will play this year and if you go to Vegas for Thanksgiving you can probably get his autograph (after he schools Momo all night long).

  • jessie, bring your team back to relevance and then you can talk.
