Pure speculation...Maybe RK wants UConn, but KO is telling him he needs to divorce himself from RR in order to accept his commitment. Again... pure speculation.

It's certainly possible, but I doubt Ollie would impose that on him, unless he suggested it from an academic standpoint...to be in good standing for acceptance. One thing's for sure, if Ray selects UConn, but stays with Russell, it could be a very long HS season for him. Additionally, who would know how solid his commitment to UC is as well, since he'd have RR in his ear every day.

The problem is that he can't switch schools at this late date unless he decides not to play at all his senior year.

Why couldn't he transfer to another private school? There may be issues with a public school but kids (in CA and NV) transfer during the school year to a private school and play immediately.

Pure speculation, but maybe he wanted each head coach to do a Forest Gump style run across the country and whoever finished first gets his commitment. Again, PURE SPECULATION.

No contest, Calhoun would win, then Ollie.

Not really new news but:
@TheBBallDiary: Ray Kasongo REALLY wants UConn. Outside influence want him at Oregon. There are a some Grassroot Canada players. Easy to figure out who.

Why don't they let the kid decide his future instead of those around him. This is what's wrong with the recruiting world
 
When the dust settles my guess is Ray K will go to UConn. But it is a tough AAU program to emerge 100% clean from - so who knows for sure. If he wants to end up at UC he needs to end this drama very soon.

This shouldn't be complicated. The one who shoots the jumper also gets to decide where he shoots the jumper.

Returning quickly to hoops. Ray Kasongo could still pick Oregon, but to quote someone close to him today, "we're all baffled" by decommit.

That was a weird quote wasnt it? If he was really close to him he would know why he made the decision to decommit. I don't know what it was but I assume if I was "close to him" I would and i wouldn't be baffled
 
Yeah, that's not a quote his parents would give to some reporter. It's someone in his basketball entourage

Of course the handlers are baffled. If there was some kind of $ exchanged or some other kind of hinkey going on, and the handlers thought they had successfully pushed him to Oregon, only to have Ray pull back and say "hold on"... yeah the handlers would be baffled by that.
 
I actually feel bad for this kid. It seems clear to me that he wants to come to Uconn but others in his circle might not be to enthusiastic about it. If he wanted to be at Oregon he`d be on his way. He committed then decommitted within a few hours. Hes either just not sure or he wants to come here and its not a popular choice among his people. Sad really. this should be a great day for him and it seems like hes being pulled in opposite directions.
 
If he picks the Huskies there may be a return of "gifts" by the Russell team!!
