IF THE RUMORS ARE TRUE, How Many Of VCUs Recruits Bolt To VT?

Just askin'

Interesting concept, but one that requires several layers of logic, speculation and foresight that you're not going to find from the minds of any of us Scoopers.

That said... I say zero.  But that's having done no research whatsoever.

VCU's highest rated recruit this year is from PA, so it's hardly a lock that he'd choose another school in VA if he decommits from VCU.

not necessarily a VCU or VT recruit, but just talked to one on our future wish list and his pop.
(let's just say he's a real 'gem')

asked him what he thought about the Shaka to MU deal...
pop said 'so that's really going down, huh?.....  interesting'
a pretty mellow couple of dudes, so hard to read- but the reaction of both looking at each other and being 'interested' struck me somehow.

was asked about colleges:
his dad/mom and coaches take care of that-  he focuses on being a kid...
parents really want him to get his degree, but not sure
talking about how he signed some guys couch....
weird discussion.

the whole parent thing makes sense after talking to both of them,  tho.
looks like dad is driving that bus.... pretty firm with the kid.

The better question is how many of them would come with Shaka. I'd gladly trade Harris for Larrier. Don't know if Gilmore would be interested , being from FL. Tillman is from MI so MU is actually closer to home. Their PG recruit is from Newark so maybe he'd like to come to MU and play in the Pru every year.

They've handled the recruitment very, very well. Good kid from a good family.

Bob seems like a straight shooter--
brother Will is quite the piece of work!
