@AllMetroDrew: 2016 4* Atlanta Celtics G D'Marcus Simonds (@TwoSpicee) will announce his college decision Monday. Finalists are UConn, Miss. St, & Florida
 
D'Marcus Simonds @TwoSpicee · 5h
I've decided to delay my commitment

Shortly after being offered by Florida, Simonds said he would announce his college decision, at first on Saturday then moved it to Monday (tomorrow). Was looking like a shoe-in for Florida, now he delays indefinitely. This can only be good news for UConn's chances at landing the fast-rising 2016 SG and former teammate of Rock Lubin, right?

He still wants to know exactly what that signifies.

I guess that means UK? UNC/Duke/Kansas? Are we in that second group yet recruiting-wise? Are we higher on the list than FL?

No but he's a kid who believes Cal is King…..they don't get out at that age and ca't see through the obvious and what's even funnier they're coaches and camps aren't any brighter!
 
I thought he might have watched the Peach Jam yesterday and realized that he may not be getting playing time with Kevaughn Allen being ahead of him - I think that's his name..kid looked pretty good. From what I've heard, we aren't all in on Simonds, but the longer he waits the better, especially if Rock gives glowing reviews of his experience in Storrs.
 
If he is looking for something better then having two of his final three teams in last years FF then the kid is smoking too much dope.
FLA is a great program- UCONN is a great program. If he wants to go to One and Done U I have to believe we do not want him anyway. We have MN and DS as our pie in the sky one and done targets for this class- that's plenty.

However if he has decided that we can develop talent better then FLA and he has a better chance at being a great NBA prospect coming to UCONN then I applaud the kids intelligence and foresight.
 
Don't expect the decision to be delayed much. A few days to a week from what I've been told.

Not for nothing, but going to UK = massive national exposure. That's what a lot of kids (and their handlers) want.

Exactly I agree…….but isn't getting a lot better and winning NC's pretty important too? I mean they win but ultimately they don't as much as they should. Poythress would go in a different direction I bet if given the chance and I'm guessing he's not the only one. Recruiting over you becomes every day……..what have you done for me lately or where is the better player and at what HS or prep?

I want him to pick UCONN, but when a kid says his dream school offers that means its pretty much done, he probably wants to see Florida's athletic facility's and campus before making it official

"Dream school" is a tricky term. We currently have one commit called us his "dream school" (Jalen Adams), one recommit who called us his "dream school" (Prince Ali, not sure about Turtle), and are after Enoch who also views UConn as his "dream school". Enoch may be a little different considering he's actually at CT kid whereas Prince is NY/FL and Jalen is MA.

but after receiving the Florida offer he set a date to commit, he probably backed off a little because his parents or someone advised him to at least explore more options

I was extremely disappointed to see that one of the handy-dandy, color coded recruiting tags was not appended to this title.

I think this thread was created before the Crayola tags were available.

Drop UNC from that list.
 
Probably no interest on our end but Eli Cain a 6'6 wing from St. Benedicts just decommitted from Delaware.
