Twitter accounts say Evan has cancelled his Iowa visit. Does anyone know what other school's Mr. Boudreaux is considering? With the guards that have already committed to Dartmouth there is a good chance with Evan, Dartmouth will be in the top tier of the Ivy's for the next 4 if not 5 years.

It's pretty outdated with most of the experts chiming in around may of this year.

What a bummer it would be if he ended up at Yale.
I definitely won't get my hopes up for the Green, but I will say that 247 doesn't seem to be very up to date...
This link supposedly shows the 10 or so schools that have offered him and the 26 schools that are interested in him. I believe Dartmouth has offered him (right?) and they are certainly interested, and yet there is no mention of Dartmouth: http://247sports.com/Recruitment/Evan-Boud reaux-23...

Not only is it not up to date there is also no mention of Dartmouth at all. That being said, I believe he has an official visit to Dartmouth this month, so the web pages credibility is certainly suspicious at best. Let's hope green blood still flows through his veins and Dartmouth comes out on top.

His 6-foot-4 mother Gail Koziara Boudreaux, is Dartmouth's all-time leading scorer and rebounder!

It's down to Dartmouth and Yale. For some reason, I'm remembering that his Dartmouth visit is next weekend. This weekend was supposed to be Iowa.
The Crystal Ball predictions are decently accurate when the recruiting is very public and the angles well known. Here, given that Dartmouth isn't even listed, I assume most people just switched their Iowa to Yale because they believed that was the only other choice.
This is one of the more intriguing intra-Ivy recruiting battles left for the 2015 class, so it will be interesting to see how it shakes out...

There's an article or two out there that would confirm, but I want to say he did a couple weekends ago. He already did, just not sure when...

Not only was his mother an all-time Dartmouth great, she's a trustee. http://www.dartmouth.edu/~trustees/biographies /bou...
HIs brother is a Dartmouth senior. Could be an uphill fight for Yale.

I hope that is the case... But. Could also be an uphill fight for Dartmouth. Sometimes kids like to forge completely different paths from their family members. I think there is some allure to that and would never fault a kid for going that route. IMO, though, the storyline of him and Dartmouth is far more compelling than him going to Yale. I think he will get more attention/exposure at Dartmouth. National attention if it goes really well and they get back to the big dance.

Friday is what his Tweet said. His mom was sitting with Paul Cormier at the Homecoming football game last week.

Nice inside info, Cooper. Thanks. Hopefully that bodes well for decision day, as I think Boudreaux would take Dartmouth back to the NCAA tournament.
