UPDATE: 8:11 p.m.
Our boy Jordan Cohen just got off the phone with Watford a few minutes ago, and the player himself confirmed that he's coming to IU. He told Jordan that he committed to IU because of the relationship he's built with IU coaches throughout the recruiting process. Makes sense, Tom Crean, Tim Buckley and Bennie Seltzer have been recruiting Watford since they were at Marquette.
Watford becomes perhaps the cornerstone of what is now arguably one of the best recruiting classes in the nation. Check out idsnews.com or pick up a copy of the IDS for Jordan's full story about Watford, complete with quotes.

Key stats Height: 6-foot-7 Weight: 215 lbs. Also considering: Alabama, Memphis, Marquette (you don't think...), Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee Rankings: No. 15 SF (Scout); No. 6 SF, No. 34 overall (Rivals); four-star recruit according to both services
Watford joins a class that is already in the Rivals top 10, with Kelvin Sampson holdover Derek Elston, local boy Jordan Hulls, Bobby Capobianco and Maurice Creek all set to don the Cream and Crimson next fall.
