I won't be upset, saddened and unsurprised.

I predict he'll select Duke but wouldn't be surprised with Michigan State. Selecting the natural basketball schools is what most bball players would do. Maybe I would have done so at his age. However, without meaning to sound judgmental, his selecting any of the powers is a bit selfish in that it is ultimately about him. He is a talent that could play at Chicago State and still play in the NBA, so he doesn't need a big program. If he some how selects BYU, it will be a victory for his culture, because his play will be about him and his culture. It won't happen as he has been part of big time for so long, and there is nobody counseling him in that direction. Thus, we won't see it happen, but it would be a small miracle.

Romney got clobbered. Now the best LDS high school player of all time goes for the natural, anti-cultural program. It is not a good time for LDS culture. The LDS moment is gone.
