PTW's Brady Heslip prediction

Here is Tony Jones/Aggieville on Brady Heslip and his tripping to Oregon plans.

At the risk of repeating, Heslip will play right away at Oregon. He will also have a similar opportunity at Boise State. Such is not necessarily so with Utah State although he would certainly get on the court to some degree next season if he chooses Logan.

Oregon is in the PAC-10, Utah State and Boise State reside in the WAC. Remember that Heslip is coming from the ACC, as short as his stay was at BC.

None of the coaches at three three schools will be fired (if at all, but certainly not before Heslip completes his eligibility). Heslip is not getting anywhere near that experience again.

Utah State has the best chance to get to the Big Dance next season and beyond. Boise State will become more competitive in the WAC fairly soon while Oregon is a basket case at the moment.

Utah State offers the best game experience for a player. Oregon is moving into a brand new facility and a solid number of the student fans are rabid (don't let 'em bite you) but enthusiasm is lessening. Boise State is in wait-and-see mode, literally. Will a new head coach stoke the fire of the existing fans plus, more critically, bring in new ones?

All in all, we predict Heslip will say "the magic word" and a duck will appear in his future.
