Columbia, Missouri native.  Will be an upset if he doesn't stick to the home team.

I don't think that means much nowadays.  Kids leave their backyards all the time now.

You are right, but I'm not saying that just because he's from Columbia.

What have you heard about him?

What have you heard about him?

Pretty much what I just said.

But does he like chili?

Cheatham has a tentative decision date of 9/5. If we land him, I wonder if there will even be room for Mr. Whitt.

I don't know the chances, but if you consider that MU is the first visit out of five and the last two visits are to schools who have been on him for quite awhile, I wouldn't think it would be great unless MU would blow him away and he commits on his visit  Can't remember too many guys who have verballed to a school with the other visits left to his supposed leaders.

Let's hope Haanif Cheatham has a good visit.

He goes to Cal before us and last I checked he had no other visits scheduled.

Haanif is not 100% sure if he'll visit just the two schools or if he will decide on his birthday now.

My take on this is Haanif will annouce for MU on 9/5 unless something goes wrong with his visit. He is ours to lose.

Jimmy Whitt (4-star Combo Guard from Columbia, MO) trimmed his list to 5 and Mizzou made the cut. He's taking his 5 official visits to: Marquette (Sept 5), Illinois (Sept 13), SMU (Sept 19), Arkansas (Oct 10) and Mizzou (Oct 25). So Mizzou will get a chance to close.

Does anyone follow Duke basketball closely enough to know if they ever oversign?  I assume that Wojo is likely to follow Duke's mo.  If Ellenson and Cheatham sign, then Whitt, Bryant Crawford, Alstin, and Blakeney would all present oversigning possibilities.

I think he only oversigns, if he believes there is a good chance someone is leaving.

I don't think we are invlolved with Blackney any longer

Very Seldom

Correct. He announced his final 6, we ain't in it

I know nothing about if Duke oversigns or not. But with over 500 transfers this offseason, I think it is fair for a coach to oversign, just in case of an unexpected (or expected) transfer.

Well, sumbitch wasn't any good no how.

Wojo cooled on him.

I don't think Wojo was ever even hot for him honestly

Come on, TAMU, you had to know I was just being goofy. Which was my major, BTW.

Oh I'm well aware. It was one of those "It's funny, but seriously" moments

Crawford is a very talented player. I would be delighted if we signed him.
