Hood to announce Wednesday

[Boone]

Heard we're out of it for Hood.

[marquette99]

Well, hope sultan's gut is right and evan daniel's is wrong on hood.

[GGGG]

Not feeling as good today I must say.

[mileskishnish72]

Could be an oh-fer on Shaw, Hood & Faust. If so, where do we go?

[MarkCharles]

ok, so it was clearly a hunch. or something you ate

[GGGG]

It was a hunch based on something tangible.

We console each other with the thought that we still will have 7 top 100 recruits on the roster next year.

[mileskishnish72]

Right you are, Will - I'm putting the vacuum hose back in the house.

Is this your new cause Will?  Last year, it was reminding every poster on here that Mo Acker indeed was 5'8"...

[jfmu]

looks like the word is miss state tomorrow for hood per various sources

[RJax55]

Close reinko, but it was more like:

* Mo Acker can't be MU's starting point guard.
* Acker is only 5'8''
* At no time should Acker and Cubillan every play together.
* Buzz has no clue, MU can't win.

Actual game results don't matter.

[Ron Paul]

we all need 2 think positive in this, MU will b just fine. Have faith in something!!!

What are you sending a text message or something?  How much more difficult is it to write out the word "to" instead of the number 2?

Don't forget to add that Mo Acker was not a DI player and what was the previous administration doing to recruit such a slouch.

Any links?

Oh well, I wasn't getting my hopes up. I guess staying close to home must have been a huge priority, because I don't see how he can look at their roster/history and say they have a better shot at winning a lot of games or getting him to the NBA.

Lots of people cruise the forums on their mobile devices.

No link, just Jerry Meyer of Rivals is reporting he believes it to Mississippi. All other sources are reporting just that he announces tomorrow (a few say maybe today or tomorrow).

However, a few others are saying Florida State is in the lead...but they aren't really sources.

I would definitely say Marquette is in the lead. Expect Hood to choose the MU hat tomorrow.

There, now you can all say there's a source putting us as the leader. So what if I don't have the credentials of Jerry Meyer, at least it gives us some hope for the next 24

You have obviously missed the point, it is as difficult to type a 2 as it is to write the word to.  If you are surfing the internet on a T9 device you deserve a medal for patience.

I hope we are still in the running for Hood, it seems to me that all it would take is one big man to come in here to breakdown the wall.  Obviously these kids feel that we are Guard U and so far they are right.

[Rockmic87]

Not even listed on Rivals as a contender for Hood anymore. On to the next one!

Hood is not a bigman. Some places list him as a 3 and others list him as a 2.

Well, 48 hours ago I said that I had a hunch he was coming here.  Since I am not going to be able to access MUScoop most of the day today, I will not get a chance to see what his choice was until later on.

Anyway, the reason I felt positive about him is because of a number of recent MU additions to his Facebook friends, including Mark Miller.  In retrospect, that seems way too much of a grasping at straws, but hey I'd rather go through life as an optimist.

Still holding out hope.

[Canadian Dimes]

FWIW...i remember last spring Mark Miller was accepted by devante on FB and he announced for Mu a few days later.

Yes.  That is why I was confident in the Devante announcement, despite everyone thinking he was going to USF.

If Facebook "friending" is where our recruiting hopes lie at this point, it may be best to close the shop for six months.

No, I never suggested we recruit that way.  I am suggesting that it is evidence of a player's decision.
