Also, during the game @ the Al against Vincent, I saw landry hanging in the crowd, so i walked over and had a chat with him, nothin' big but I'm like let Bo know about Big Ben, whether he did or not i dont know, but anways, one of my better friends Jalen McCloud, also on the GTown varsity team, has told me that a scout from Saint Louis university has visited practice mand Rick Majerus is recruiting him.

There's more than just interest from St. Louis and UWM. UWM reportedly offered over a year ago. St. Louis followed suit.
Having the grades to walk-on at UW is one obstacle. Another obstacle is whether or not his family is wealthy enough to justifying paying several thousands of dollars in tuition per year instead of getting it for free. A third is whether or not we'd have a spot available. That's doubtful if a guy like Gavinski would sacrifice his scholarship for Jamil Wilson, Rodney Williams, etc. Also, Rick Wagner from the football team is an excellent walk-on candidate. He also had an offer from UW-Milwaukee. A fourth is whether or not he'd be willing to accept a supporting role at best probably, his entire career.
In summation, there's a slim chance he walks on at UW. I'll root for him at St. Louis or UWM.
