and lol if it's true that Wilson was going to be the last guy they went after. that means they probably stopped recruiting any of the above

You and Oz are def reading that wrong. Doesn't mean we'll get anybody else of course
 
he is not walking on anywhere. People need to take a break. Stop rehashing the same 2 debates in every GD thread. This place is becoming something else. I am thankful for the NBA, food threads and Cesspool because the college hoops aspect of the 'Yard is officially a dumpster fire.

If he's willing to walk on somewhere, why wouldn't he walk on to Duke? There's no way K wouldn't take him without having to give him a scholarship.

Because duke costs a bazillion dollars to attend and he would have to get through admissions for real students, not jocks.

Recruiting will only start to rebound when UConn wins. You can't expect it to happen the other way around at this point. The currency from 2014 has been burned up. They probably will not get any more highly sought after recruits for 2017. Coaching is way more important anyway, and maybe this season won't start with home losses to mid-majors.

Athletics can still push him through without giving him a scholarship, it makes no difference in regards to admission.

Thank you, was looking for this.

I know "recruiting is fluid", but ZERO contact turning into a near commitment in 4 DAYS is something I can't take seriously.

If Kansas put in one call, they immediately are the leaders. Waters clearly wants to either be *the* guy or be at one of the big boys. Neither of those scenarios is us. The only way we get him is by default. I have no issue with that, but citing a tweet from four days ago and thinking that's gospel is silly.

Neither one of those scenarios are Kansas either. They have 3 PG's returning. You are also saying we should instead take the word of an insider on a forum page than an experienced reporter "as gospel".
 
You guys thinking Tremont is coming here is funny, you must be masochists.

Perhaps losing on Wilson will help with Waters! Stay positive!

This is what I was thinking ... Waters is so concerned about playing time, one more perimeter player would have squeezed his minutes ... With Wilson at St John's, the two-point-guard lineup would be there for him.

Based on how the team was built, we were gonna go 2 PG, even 3 PG for good stretches anyway.

There are no insiders! Stop hyping anyone - no one deserves it!!

Except 99 he is plugged in. The mistake these insiders make is they give definitive predictions, 99 is smart enough to never do that because you know recruiting is fluid

99 is a crowdsourcer. right? He doesn't really have many sources himself; his sources have sources. It's a valuable tool, but one should look at 99's info the same as the 247 crystal ball.

Right. I like 99 but there is no direct knowledge, jut hearsay. It's helpful, but not a definitive answer on some recruiting questions.

Yup. I talk to mostly national tos reporter, few regional and local reporters, guys in aau circles, and a few booster . But never players

Not sure what was misconstrued. It seems like he either wants to be the guy (GTown, Creighton, WKU) to run the show or be at a huge school (Duke, Kansas, Kentucky). Kansas has guards returning so he wouldn't be the guy, but they are absolutely a huge school; in today's landscape, they are definitely in the top 5 along with UNC, Duke, UK, and someone else I'm sure you are forgetting. The board "insider" is obviously below a reporter, but the point is Waters is obviously still waiting for one of the big boys to call. Citing a tweet from four days ago now may be old news.

The problem is that only the players, families and aau coaches know. Otherwise you got nada.

Nobody knows. The player usually doesn't know. They are pulled by family, coaches and others. There are simply no people anywhere who know what is going to happen. Get over it.

My booster guy gets interesting info but yes aau guys have best info from my contacts

I'd take 1,000 99's over the sensationalized bull crap like 'confirmed' or 'next'. 99 doesnt give us coded msgs to decipher he gives straight info. Thats why he's the only one i trust. I choose to act like Zionn doesnt exist because he's depressing lol

Can't remember a time that Zionn has been wrong though.
