KO please rectify that "I haven't talked to Coach Ollie yet" statement

If this isn't rectified by the time the kid leaves campus, someone has to drag KO off to a shrink, pronto, to help him get his head straight. It is already bad that the kid hadn't talked to him yet.
 
I'm shocked there isn't a video of CV's snapchat here with him playing xbox with Isaiah
 
2018 four-star @PSACardinals wing Isaiah Mucius will take an unofficial visit to Temple on Wednesday n.rivals.com/content/prospe…

Temple or UConn? :eek:
 
I think there's a ways to go with this kid - not expecting anything that soon.

I saw that he's going to Brewster Academy next year. Given his school list, I'm happier to have him up in New England than down in Maryland.
 
This would be a great get by the staff and evidence that we're moving in the right direction. Hopefully it happens. Not getting my hopes up yet though.

Many coaches talk to kids for the first time on their visits. The problem is follow-through rather than first contact.

From what I remember I think Killings has been leading his recruitment, so that makes sense. A little surprised KO wasn't the one to give him his offer, but as long as someone is building and maintaining a relationship with him I don't care

It's disturbing because, if the rumors are true that we lost MAL due to KO's inattentiveness, you'd think he'd be extra attentive to the next batch of recruits. I can't count the number of times a recruit explains his commitment "because of my relationship with the head coach." Hopefully KO picked up his game with the visit, and is building a good relationship with Mucius.

Not paying any attention to your committed player is one thing. But not speaking with a recruit until June before your senior year is another. This is pretty typical. I always read of recruits at other schools meeting the HC during a visit over the summer. Not atypical

Not atypical with the lower priority recruits, but with the top targets the head coach is usually involved early and often. When the head coach calls at midnight on the first contact day, recruits notice because it shows they are his priority. When he doesn't make time for them it implies they are a lower priority. Kids want to be loved. If you don't prioritize them in recruiting, they think you may not prioritize them when they're at school.

Mucius likes UConn enough to come for a visit, he'd better be a priority.

Exactly we've recruited well out of Brewster and Jason Smith recently had some great things to say about UConn, Ollie and staff. Jalen being a Brewster alum and going off this year wouldn't hurt our chances either.

Yeah if it's between us and Temple we should get him but I'll assume others are involved and we'll be waiting on him....would be really nice to get someone soon though to lay the foundation of the 2018 class.

If Temple did somehow beat us out for him then I would be mucho mucho concerned about 2018 class.

As for UConn: “UConn wants me to replace Terry Larrier and be an impact player from Day One. They want me to be able to play all positions.”

"“[I will bring] my versatility being able to play multiple positions and my motor crashing the glass,” he said. “Just being a dog and working hard.”

I like that he repeats what Uconn wants in terms of playing multiple positions, not to mention that "dog" reference
