Maybe even the #1 class in the country, according to this article.

And yesterday was the last day of the early signing period, so I wonder if Bol has already signed at the school of his choice (as Richardson apparently did before he announced it) or if we'll have to wait for his decision indefinitely.

Yup, I'd imagine if he did, he would announce shortly after. No reason to sign LOI and then wait for an extended amount of time.

If he did, we will probably hear about it within the next day or two.

Who's Avery? Avery Johnson at Alabama?

Yeah, and Avery recruits well. And Yasir Rosemond (Duck player/coach) was recruiting him when at Georgia and when he switched to Bama. They were considered the favorite almost all summer.
Ah I see, maybe the FBI investigation had him eliminate them like Bol Bol with Arizona. If Bol commits to the Ducks that investigation could have been one of been one of the most beneficial things to Oregon in awhile.

As far as I know he's still in jail. I doubt he plays anywhere next year.
He made bail the next day

Really? Someone posted a gofundme to his twitter account for his bail at some point after he was arrested. I figured he hadn't made it on his own.

Sorry looks like he was in prison 6 days then released on $13,500 bail.

Richardson is a huge pickup - love his game. A well-rounded player, who looks like he'll be a great fit for Altman's system. Probably more of a combo guard than a true point, but he appears to be a better passer than Dorsey was at the same stage.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

If Troy Brown leaves with Elijah Brown after one year, this'll really help keep the scoring up.
