why are you holding back

LSU makes no sense. None. I won't believe it til I see it. Not saying he's UConn bound, but LSU is ridiculous.

Will Wade is a good young coach who can turn LSU's program around, and there is a ton of PT available for him there. I don't think it would be a poor choice of a school.

LSU also gives him an opportunity to play Kentucky twice a year and make Calipari regret not offering a scholarship.

I disagree that they mean nothing. People who are close to sources of info make predictions, based on something. Whether it is based on hard knowledge or something much less like a gut feeling, they are still close to the process and putting their reputations on the line for each selection they make.

They are what they are, not to be taken as gospel of course.

Problem is, recruits families leak false info all the time now. And these guys have no choice but to trust the direct source.

Really does anyone care either way on this one? He and his dad have known KO long enough to know he's a pretty good guy despite the transfers and bad year.

Anderson is a welcome 4th and this give Chill and Kill a chance to find someone who wants to be here anyway. This isn't a loss, actually could even be a savior.

LSU is what happens when it's Memorial Day and your camp completely misplayed your hand. As much as you can't believe LSU, I am certain Tremont and fam can't believe it more. He would be better off at WKU.

Was this an autocorrect mistake or are you really trying that hard to sound vague and mysterious

 

[champs99and04]

He thinks UConn is beneath him.

View his recruitment through that lens and every action makes sense.

I wouldn't say he feels like they are beneath him as much as UConn does not have the sex appeal that the other schools he coveted do.

What kind of sex appeal are we talking about at LSU?

I agree. Sure, LSU isn't bad, but does he really want to go there? Probably not.

Coeds.

Chief has been a little quiet on this thread...

Explain LSU then. People barely cared about LSU when Ben Simmons was there for six months.

It's been pretty clear for a long time that this kid is desperate to avoid ending up in Storrs. If something crazy happens and he ends up here, great. I am pretty certain he's going to be a very good college player and would contribute from day one, but it certainly does not look like it's in the cards.

I don't disagree, but that wouldn't necessitate the narrative that @Tenspro2002 is pushing. There are a lot of reasons he may not want to come here. That UConn is beneath him doesn't seem like it would be one. My sense is that where he would be willing to take a back seat at Kansas or Duke he would not here. None of this is meant to excuse another recruiting loss if it comes to fruition, that's just my read on the situation.

I would definitely be interested in this recruitment if he was going to be our only PG. I think he'd already have signed on at this point (assuming the Big 4 weren't interested).

Probably got told he'd be able to "run the show" starting on day 1. New environment that's not CT. SEC is big time to him, Kentucky, Florida, etc.

Oh you're certain! Certain?

 

[djct1999]

Absolutely certain. Go back and read my posts and you too will realize how certain I am. And you keep talking to those 'sources' about his countless options. Seriously, is your role on here simply to start arguments? You contradict yourself just for the sake of it.

In fairness to him, those are the best kind.

 

[Storrs to MA]

I'm over this Waters recruitment.. Let LSU have him, not worth the trouble

You were so certain it was down to a few schools, and then when a school you were unaware of comes in, you're surprised. The school was always there, and there are others. I know this for a fact. I told you so. But suddenly you are surprised. How do I contradict myself? I've been saying this is what is going to happen for awhile. I'm the least surprised at this. It is what I KNEW would happen. Now THAT is the definition of certain.

You have fought a lot of strange, pointless battles on this board, and this may be the strangest and most pointless.

What is the point that you have tried so hard for weeks to distinguish yourself from others here? That he has options that neither you nor anyone else here knew about? That's your certain fact?

Ok. Cool. Let's go back to deflategate.
