Dwayne Killings needs to earn his recruiting pedigree if he supposedly has been on Sid Wilson since the beginning.

We need to be able to beat St. John's for a top 100 wing.

Something else is clearly going on that is deterring recruits. Something outside of Killing's control. So I can't blame him for this.

Why would any good recruit want to play in this conference. With our pedigree, had we been lighting it up the last couple of years it would be any easier sell but our conference and our recent underwhelming performance are weighing us down. Personally I haven't read any of the recruiting threads for 2018 and beyond because so much rides on next season. If we are mediocre again ain't none of those high rated recruits coming here.

like AntG said....could have said 'next', but longshot at best. Staff went all out, but was initially viewed as a courtesy visit.
It happens. The two spots I'm not suuuuper worried about are PG and combo-forward.

That sucks. St. Johns it seems then.

Courtesy from who to who? Why would we get a courtesy visit?

With all due respect to zionn, this wasn't a courtesy visit. That isn't a thing, he wouldn't waste two days here if he wasn't interested. Even if we're second or third, we're in this until he commits elsewhere.
Opinion or inside info?

Thank you. I was gonna say this as well. Might not be choice one but he obviously has some interest.

That makes me feel a little better. I mean if we go all out and its only considered a courtesy visit, then that'd be embarrassing
The staff wouldn't waste their time on a courtesy visit. Literally doesn't make any sense. He's a good enough player, that he can easily cut schools he's no longer interested in. We're definitely in this thing.

This isn't true. When I was at UConn a player visited UConn who didn't end up going there and all the players knew the player wasn't coming there. I know this because I was hanging out in the dorm room during the visit.

No. I'm not going to tell you who it was.

I don't think this staff has the luxury to have courtesy visits right now.

Are you suggesting the staff didn't know?

If I had to guess, watch the third visit. That's where he is going.

Polley and Carlton weren't even on our radar before DK got here. He's earning his keep but yes we all want some big fish.

Also, the amount of suckers on here will always infuriate me. These basketball message boards breed the most gullible people on the planet
