FYI: Cordell Henry

[mosarsour]

It appears that Cordell has not taken the position with DePaul and is remaining where he is. According to him, "the timing was wrong".

@tomcrean:  "Cordell Henry, one of my all time favorites at MU, just got into night school at the City Colleges of Chicago."

Glad Cordell is further pursuing his education, but DPU is a better place to do that than CCC.

Jeeze I forgot about Jaylin, I remember waking up to a news story about him when I was younger and thinking the kid's work ethic seemed crazy.  How old would he be now? Eighth grade or going into HS freshman year?

Going into HS freshman year, I can't find out what HS.

He's made the jump to being featured on Bleacher Report.

Cordell was an assistant at Division III North Park in Chicago last year. I chatted him up after they played a game against Carthage in Kenosha.

I saw the article too, but I actually "spoke" with Cordell on FB the other day and when I congratulated him on his new gig his exact words were "Thanks bro, but I decided to stay where I am. Timing was wrong so I went back."

Timing in this case being that the DePaul staff faces almost certain dismissal at season's end.

Unless Young an Melvin really get their game together

So, I guess according to NCAA rules, Henry taking a grad asst spot does not qualify him to adhere to the 2 year separation from possible recruits from his former school.  And, as long as DePaul is still recruiting Paul White from WY, the timing is not right.
