There has clearly been a disconnect here somewhere along the line. Sterling's decision to transfer was preceded by some very loud whispering that he was going to transfer, and that he'd be transferring to UConn. A couple days afterwards, Slater from 247 announces that he'll be committing to UConn - even though it was two days after his intentions to transfer crystalized, and presumably, he had yet to visit any campus - and Meyer, NBC, etc. immediately piggyback on that report.
Now, the unofficial report that precedes the official report, we see that all the time, it's just the way these things work. Information leaks tend to materialize from the ground up, and the subject in question is very often the last one to state anything definitively.
Somebody that is prominently involved, or at least highly familiar with, the decision making process of Gibbs is telling anybody willing to listen what is going on. Only, that person appears reluctant to go on record, and as a result, we don't know if this is one squeaky wheel or multiple people.
Unless Bruce is willing to divulge his source - and I wouldn't expect him to - something that his camp is saying is inconsistent with what his camp is doing, so either somebody is spreading false information or there is a legitimate hold-up with the fine print at UConn. Somebody say something reassuring.
