Basketball Recruiting - The effect on Cade Cunningham and more fallout from OSU's penalties

Oklahoma State was banned from the 2021 NCAA tourney on Friday. What does it mean for recruits such as Cade Cunningham?

Just wow. Can't blame him wanting to leave.

Would be crazy if he moves onto Kentucky. They have Devin Askew, but Cunningham would immediately get the starting nod. In the fold, Kentucky would have a 2014-2015 Kentucky-esque size with a starting lineup of no one shorter than 6'6.

If he moves on to Kentucky, that would make huge waves in the college basketball hierarchy. Him leaving Oklahoma State for pros wouldn't likely affect the college landscape that much as they were projected to be a middle of the pack Big 12 team.

No. 1 recruit Cade Cunningham has options after Oklahoma State is banned from the NCAA Tournament

Staying with the Cowboys, transferring, playing overseas or going to the G League are all on the table

"Maybe probation I could see, reduction in recruiting activities," said Boynton. "But a postseason ban for a group of kids who were 15, 16 years old when this was going on? It's completely out of bounds."

That argument didn't work for UConn.

Sounds like that won't work for Louisville either.

Louisville has more lives than a cat.

Let’s make a run at this kid, isn’t this how we got DeAndre Daniels from Kansas????

It just bothers me so much that UConn got a one season ban because the NCAA decided to change the APR rules and apply the change retroactively to UConn, based upon a season for which UConn had already punished under the old rules and ignoring UConn's current scores. We are perceived by some as having committed this level of offense, for what was essentially an arbitrary act the NCAA.

The good news is that created the “hungry Huskies” and another national championship!

OSU is big enough to cause some attention yet not like Zona, UNC, Kansas or Duke who are too big to fall

I’ll believe it when I see it

 

[Adios]

NC State will be punished in place of UNC and Duke? What a world.

A list of all Oklahoma State NCAA violations over the years would wrap around the Earth five times.

If they're going after Oklahoma State for this, they BETTER be going after Duke, LSU, Arizona, Illinois, Kentucky, etc. Sick of small time programs facing the repercussions for things that almost every program does. All comes down to their money. The system is broke.

Truth.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

The exodus begins...



Again, I feel for Boynton as he came in after all of these infractions happened and he's handled everything so far with class and calm.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Good to hear and good for Boynton. Cunningham gets to stay a year with his brother and honestly, the Cowboys were a bubble tournament team anyways.

Plus, March Madness usually has little to do with the draft standings up the cream of the crop (Fultz, Simmons, Garland...)
