So is the roster for 2017-2018 complete?

[the Q]

I remember hearing this about Stansbury from many people on the recruiting trail and at AAU events back in 2004 when he was at Mississippi State. I guess things haven't changed.

There was a recruit UConn was pursuing and the rumor was his camp was asking for at least $100,000. UConn backed off (at least that is what someone on the staff told me) and the kid ended up at Mississippi State. Nobody was surprised.

Is that how he landed bender, Mario Austin and Travis outlaw?

It's funny that for all that talk, he got hit harder than anyone (initially) by the prep to pros fad. He was the first coach to lose 2 recruits straight to the NBA

 

[the Q]

I have no idea if this story is true or not. However, I can confirm that an asking price of a 100k for a top recruit is well within reason. It happens far more than people want to admit.

I heard a big rumor about heron like that. But no source or confirmation.

Not speculating here, but basic logic tells you there is a somewhat high probability this happened. Especially with Bruce Pearl newly at the helm there looking to make a splash, a man whose character has been proven to be dishonest.
