Twitter suggests that Kentucky, Illinois are the two most likely. Marquette and MSU has a shot. Kansas not likely.

So probably Kansas.

sounds like kentucky, especially with the 24/7 sports "expert" picks as of late. F5 key will still get a workout tomorrow though

Definitely appears like UK will get yet another burger boy. One of these days we'll reel one in... hopefully it'll be a 6'10 local kid.

The thought at one point was that Stone and Matthews wanted to play together in college. Guess Cal's gonna get 2 recruits we were in on.

Hope coach Cal is just trying to change Matthews' mind

LOL. Sorry, KU did just fine. IU won a Big Ten title, first in 20+ years. No snake bites at all.

I could not care less if MU ever signs a Mickey D's player again, the first few didn't work out and the landscape is littered with plenty of flameouts or guys that felt their college team was just a way station. Something to be said about getting kids that haven't been pampered so much. Hopefully this kid isn't like this, regardless of where he goes. A few too many for my tastes are.

No matter what the result it gives me something to look forward to tomorrow. Cracking the top 5 on a recruit I honestly thought we had zero chance at is a great sign. Heres hoping Matthews is a Golden Eagle by this time tomorrow.

Serious question: do you care about winning a national title? Because every college team to win the NCAA men's championship since 1978 has had at least one McDonald's All-American on its roster, except for the 2002 Maryland Terrapins. Gotta get the burger boys in order to make the leap. This would be huge for MU. I'm not counting on it happening, but to downplay it if it does happen woul be pretty stupid.

He moved it to Wednesday, so maybe there's something to that.

He had to buy a few more hats so he could pull the old "psyche" when they are on the table?

Announcing by twitter with his coach to follow up. That's one way to get some twitter followers.

I thought 99% to Kentucky with Cal visiting and Matthews announcing the same day he has a decision. But now that he pushed it back to Wed am I can confidently say Kentucky by 98%

ChitownSpaceForRent · « **Reply #65 on:** February 25, 2014, 12:04:18 AM »

Take it for what its worth but he does follow Buzz on twitter...Plus I didnt see him following any current players from the other teams hes considering.

BCHoopster · « **Reply #66 on:** February 25, 2014, 12:53:02 AM »

Buzz getting last call tomorrow, maybe?

TAMU, Knower of Ball · « **Reply #67 on:** February 25, 2014, 03:07:14 AM »

I said awhile ago that Charles Matthews was high on us. We are not on this list by accident.

From what I've heard, it's between us and Kentucky. He wants us....but Coach Cal can make promises that Buzz cannot (and should not) make.

Of course, now that I've said this, he's probably going to UCLA

I can confirm that Buzz Williams was also in the building.

I'm not saying we are getting him, but it is between us and Kentucky. We are certainly the underdogs but the parents definitely prefer Marquette.

Never underestimate the power of mom!

ZFB's old man went to St Rita's, so that has to help recruiting.

Thought you once said your old man was named Rita.

If you wanna look at it optimistically...one of these things is not like the others. Kentucky, MSu, and Kansas surprise noone. Illinois obviously makes sense, but then there's MU. Could have easily been trimmed along with UW, SMU, etc., but weren't. Not predictin, just sayin, they're the odd ball on the list. Hopefully they're there for a reason.

Exactly my first thought on this

With that list of 5, my prediction for his final order is:
1. MU
2. MU
3. MU
4. MU
5. MU or:

1. Kentucky
2. Kansas
3. Indiana
4. MU
5. Illinois

If it is Ky., start a demand for NCAA investigation of Cal, because you know something dirty happened.
