These kids won't be here until next year. Why is APR an issue?

I'm not sure where husky99 was going but I think he means the administration is being more stringent with recruits in regards to academics due to the APR issues, maybe higher standards are in place. Based on Jordan Bell's quotes he was blocked from visiting because he hadn't taken the SATs.

That's an NCAA rule, not a UCONN rule

Well then the excuse must be bogus then since he visited Oregon.

Was Oregon an official? If so, then either UConn has increased upon the NCAA's standard, thus curtailing recruiting, or it's bogus.

Good question, he went to a football game and everything so I'm assuming that's an official visit. You don't usually go through all of that on unofficials.

That does seem to be the case in the past, don't know current rules, but assume it's true. Of course he can't sign until he passes SAT/ACT.

Therefore, if Herbst is requiring a SAT/ACT score that could be handicapping Ollie.
 
According to Scout, BA's AAU coach said there should be a decision in the next couple weeks. Sounds like he wants to sign early.
 
What is a "passing SAT score"??? Doesn't the NCAA use a sliding score based on their final GPA??? I believe all the recruit has to do is TAKE the SAT and they can go on official visits.

Saw on twitter he was committing on Monday.

Mine was in reference to Brandon Austin. You talking about him or Jordan Bell?
 
He is now officially down to three. UConn, Providence, Texas in no order.
 
If BA watched last nights victory how could he possibly consider another school? I would take out a student loan to play for Kevin Ollie
 
@GavinKeefe: #PC and #UConn are finalists for highly-regarded recruit Brandon Austin, a 6-5 guard.
