As of now, there's nothing on Twitter about him making an announcement today.

No, Wojo is giving DWill #24.

But what number is he giving DWill?

I only reveal my sources on a need to know basis and your name's not on my list.   I can't have getting someone busted up on my conscious... this is real time stuff.

But he was on Shayok.

You would know better than me.

pictures would have worked better than a video, though I suppose I could turn the sound down.

Today starts spring signing day.  April 27th is the deadline to declare for the NBA draft.  Presumably we will get a decision by the end of the month.  My one great concern is that Hill is waiting to see how many KU, UK, and Duke guys leave and whether one of those programs comes calling after the announcement, however, he'd need to request out of his NLI first.

Why not ask out now, or last week?  That way he can talk to Self, Calipari and/or Cocah K directly and not through second hand backdoor intermediaries.  

If he asks out, he can still decide to go to MU later.  

That's why the longer this goes without him asking out, the better it is for us.  Ditto Satchel Pierce for the same reason.

Yea, all has been quiet on the western front in terms of Satchel and AH. Would like to see Satchel come just so he can develop and be a solid player after Steve leaves. AH obviously I would love to see him come here but there are a lot of players fighting for that 2/3 role which isnt a bad thing it will just be interesting to see how Wojo divvy's up the minutes.

Pierce is really important even if he is raw, need some size on the bench, plus I would rather take a flyer on a big to improve, much like Devante.  Pierce and Fisher at least replaces the 2
bigs lost.  Hill would be a nice addition, but he does move into a crowded backcourt.

Hill met with Wojo yesterday, and has been given a release.

He's not torn anymore...

At least he gave us reasons as to why - classy move.  Now the seeds of doubt have been planted in Wojo's recruiting ability.

Because he couldn't build a relationship for a 4 year decision in 1 conversation? Wow...

Shayok and now Hill.  All I'm saying is that some people will have some doubts.

So Cohen doesn't count ... Got him to stay.

Izzo's rule that college basketball fans forget that is older than three weeks strikes again?  Cohen re-commit was close enough to three weeks so you think Wojo has failed to keep anyone?

And they fact that for the first time since Buzz arrived, we have a semester with no one transferring does not give an insight into possible recruiting abilities?  Or does this fall into the Izzo rule too?

You and your Wojo can't recruit mantra. The only player he's officially lost is Hill, who has a long standing relationship with the former coach. Shayok may or may not end up at MU and we don't know about Pierce yet. Have you been able to get everything you've ever wanted? Give the guy a little breathing room and let's see what he can do on an even playing field.

Something doesn't seem right. AH said he was probably staying at MU unless he heard something he didn't like from Wojo. Then he writes a tweet on the 10th saying he's not coming to MU, but doesn't release it until the 16th.

And are we certain that Wojo wants all of Buzz's recruits?  Who knows why Hill loves Chew & Williams...but Wojo has his own vision for the team and he will build it his way.  I think Hill would have been an awesome addition, but maybe Wojo didn't.  Don't assume anything.

Maybe Chew was in Hill's ear while he (Chew) was in his "free agency" period.

I'm told 2 of Buzz Williams assistants will be Isaac Chew (from Marquette) & Steve Roccaforte (from USF). 3rd name still a mystery. #Hokies
