I hope we get this guy but it seems like whoever is last in gets him. Visits Pitt, Pitt lean. Buzz has in home, MU lean. Visits Miami, rumor he will commit early.

It's like following a little kid down the cereal aisle in the grocery store.

I hope the big fella slows down and takes a little time to think, no matter what he decides.

I trust Corey Evans more than I trust random PITT and Miami fans. If he says that he hasn't heard anything about Pierce committing early, then I don't think its true. Pierce will come this weekend and hopefully Buzz knocks his socks off. If not, onto the next one.

Rumblings on the twittosphere that Miami may getting a commitment from a basketball player...Ugh. The lack of attractiveness of MU to bigger, quality players astounds...

I love the dynamics displayed here. At a football school like Miami Pierce is just "some basketball kid I think." This attitude towards basketball should give us more of a leg up on football schools than it does

It is a different world down at the U, I went to school there for a year, like a country club.

Wow, that just reads like a phony headline trolling for clicks. As someone else mentioned, I love that their fans assumed it was for a football player, and then dismiss it as just "some basketball kid".

Just looked at Corey Evans twitter....he is NOT saying MU lean, he is just saying MU has the most to offer he kid, from a basketball perspective. Not exactly going out on the limb with that one, but hey, I hope his prediction comes true.

looks like he's coming to MU this weekend:

I was the one he was talking to there. We both agreed that Marquette has the most to offer him and Corey said that he did enjoy the Miami visit. He still believes that Pierce will end up at Marquette.

How incompetent would a Miami B-ball coach have to be to not have a recruit have a good visit?

Uceda definitely has the size to start at center at the "U". Does anyone know if his game fits well there? Miami also has a good sized PF committed in the freshman class, and is still in the hunt for one more.

Daniel · « **Reply #188 on:** October 28, 2013, 06:43:30 PM »

"Hopefully"is a funny choice if words. Is his visit out of his control? Doubtful. Is there another potential conflict that we don't know about? Maybe. Or was it just an easy way to respond without giving a direct answer? We will find out soon. Marquette certainly has a LOT to offer MR. Pierce, and Mr. Pierce has a LOT to offer Marquette. A great fit.

In other news...this thread is turning into an epic one - 17,392 Views!! Looks like everyone at MU wants to know who Satchel Pierce is...and what better way to find out than for Satchel to come to MU. Hope Buzz reels him in.

brewcity77 · « **Reply #190 on:** October 30, 2013, 06:41:03 AM »

Pierce tweeted this last night:

@satch1032: God just told me what school I should goto The only problem is I dont uwhat he was trying to say. Anyone tryin to help me with this one?

Not sure if he's looking for Twitter love, conflicted, or has simply made his mind up. One thing that would worry me...if he's really getting a message from God, he'll probably go to Miami. After all, everyone at Marquette is already saved, whereas the U is clearly a den of sinner that either need to be saved or purged

MUCrew · « **Reply #191 on:** October 30, 2013, 07:37:37 AM »

Well today is supposedly the day Pierce chooses. We'll see....

It sounds to me that he is making fun of Buzz, which means MU is out of it.

Because Buzz is likely to tell him about praying about his choice.

Buzz would say that, but I highly doubt this kid is taking to Twitter to insult Buzz. More likely, genuinely confused as he's allegedly always leaning toward his most recent coach or school visit. I wouldn't read too much into an 18 year-old's Tweets though. Hoping Buzz lands him - time will tell.

I am pumped. Today is his decision? A 7 foot, 2.7 star center ranked 200. We are finally landing the stud bigs. Hope he commits our way.
