If Dan Hurley and staff can sign Kelis Fisher after getting involved so late it will be an unbelievable achievement, especially now that Duke is in the mix with their new, young, head coach in waiting.
The history they've had with players of similar size and skills will be tough to overcome............but, hey, our staff has done it before starting with 1999!
 
Does Unofficial vs. Official matter much these days? I understand what is allowed on each, but in terms of "commitment towards certain schools?"

Just seems like we're doing so many unofficial visits that it's hard to gauge the interest levels to a degree

Hurley mode for recruiting is to do a summer UV and a fall OV to get the committment. The kids doing OVs are from farther away, so paying their own way for a UV didn't make much sense.

That makes sense, but if we're doing UVs with Flip while Duke is doing OVs, does that mean we're behind the 8ball here, or solely a matter of travel costs and timing?

I don’t think it matters much. He can drive to Storrs for a day and go home. He probably has to fly - and definitely has to stay over night - in North Carolina

Don't think it matters much for now, if he's not coming back for an OV in the fall that's when it should be concerning and a sign that he's probably not an option
 
can recruits commit on unoffical visits?

Is this a serious question? I'm wondering if you're saying that an unofficial to get him on campus is just as good as an official since he can verbally commit after either.

So should we not hold our breath for any commitments this summer? I know last year we got our 3 commits mid summer within about a 2 week period, but with COVID things were a little different.

No, it is more than travel costs. You are allowed to spend money entertaining someone on an OV that you can't if they are there unofficially. So if you think "wining and dining" helps, you would rather entertain someone on an official.

Can recruits on an unofficial stay over and hang with the team like an official? So they can see the social side of campus? Or do they need to leave campus?

I think they get 5 each for junior and senior year of high school. Do these count as junior year still and he will get 5 more in the fall if he wants them ?
A prospective student athlete only gets 5 official visits to D1 schools in total (not annually and only one per school). They can take as many unofficial visits as they like (can afford).

I think Hurley's strategy is to keep getting kids on campus. So yeah, they're more of less but getting comfortable and familiar with the school and program .... and they he closes on the OV. If that's the case is smart play.

ok, thanks for the info. that may be one of the dopiest 'policy manuals' that i have ever read.
(frosh/soph):
'As a recruit, NCAA schools only may provide you: • Recruiting questionnaires. • Educational materials from the NCAA. • Brochures for camps. • General information about the school not focused on athletics (e.g., admissions brochure, campus catalog). Communicating with Coaches and Athletics Staff* Recruits may call coaches or athletics staff at any time but may not communicate with coaches in any other way (such as text or email). Coaches may not call, return messages a recruit has left for them or make other types of contact with the recruit or his family members.'
