Recruiting as of 5/15/25

[cheebs09]

With the amount of suspense recruits want to create for their announcement, I wouldn't read into too much. Maybe he wants to fool people doing the same thing we are doing. I will lose hope when he announced or BD says we aren't in it anymore. Again, if we put the full court on Ramey or don't visit Grimes next week, I'd assume we are out.

[LoudMouth]

Stan isn't following him anymore either. It's over, on to the next one.

Over?!?! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell No!

Wise.

If Big Daddy Apollo 13 says, "Houston, we have a problem" then we'll know it's bad news.

If Big Daddy Glengarry shows up, we'll know it's good news.

This is probably true since he is following about 80 less people than yesterday. And with that, I'm done analyzing a recruit's twitter account

The "soft-block" never knew about that one... I'm back in! All aboard the QG train! He just needs some quiet time to figure it all out. Stan is working the "fool" angle to perfection with all those timely twitter quotes.

Edit: Hmm.. still following assistants from the other 3 schools and Coach Cal.... must be a fools diversion.

[Tha Hound]

Need a BD post ASAP to put me out of my misery.

[TheREALwrk]

I'm so confident we weren't eliminated yesterday, I changed my name. Finally.

[wadesworld]

The dots I had connected have now become very blurry.  Stan has me playing the fool.

Maybe he only left Cal as a "follow" so he could see his "3" Tweet, with Kentucky being the one out.

That has to be it.

Grimes to MU.  Natty champs 2019.

[4th and State]

yes, Stan un-following QG to fool everyone, which by analyzing his earlier tweet, is really Stan fooling everyone else.  Ipso facto Grimes to MU...#donedeal

Maybe Stan heard from De'Vion Harmon - who is announcing on Friday?

Although, I agree it appears Grimes is going elsewhere.

Harmon is a 2019.

Oh, and the last 3 pages of this thread are phenomenal.

Yes. There have been a few already upset that we finished 4th and discount that QG even considered us.

Then the group (that I fit into) that are half "hey it sucks but we tried! Move on, MU basketball is still around"

And the "nah we are still in it!!" Crowd

And finally the conspiracy theory group about why QG would unfollow and then follow and then unfollow.

I hope he tweets 5 (and then deletes it later today)! Everyone (including myself) will lose their crap thinking "what the shiz! He added another school!?"

Wait, Zona's back in, hey?

[Dish]

I think we have a shot at Ledaryl Billingsley, still holding out hope.

[Dawson Rental]

I for one hope Wojo takes the call.

Because you trust Cheesy's judgment over Wojo's judgment?  Strange.

[bilsu]

Over?!?! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell No!

Germans?

[muguru]

Aaaand Texas just got a commit from a 2018 Forward..that was their 4th scholly..I THINK they may be out of schollies now.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Here's what I know.

Grimes tweeted 3 and deleted it right away. When he did this before, it meant he was down to 6 schools and Zona was out. So unless Grimes was lying, it means there are three schools left in play.

Yesterday, UK cancelled their in home with Grimes to go see Herro.

Two days ago, KU visited.

Until I hear otherwise, TU and Marquette are still meeting with Grimes next week.

So unless the TU or Marquette in home gets cancelled, I think it is safe to say both are still in it.

Unless KU told him something he really didn't like at their recent in home, I think it is more likely that the "3" was directed at UK.

I don't understand the all the "soft block" nonsense, I'm not that twitter savvy. But it does seem like every coach was removed except for Coach Cal. Given that only one team was eliminated, I think its more likely that means the UK is the odd one out, not one of the ones who is in.

Stan posts nonsense/wise things on twitter all the time. But I don't think he would passive aggressively post something because a recruit spurned MU. It seems more likely that post is talking about UK rejecting QG and it leading to him something better...hopefully MU.

The Herro thing seems to be on Grimes' mind. I think it can only help that we did not contact Herro despite him being a local recruit.

Grimes Tweets "3" like he did "6" when he eliminated Zona.  Stan unfollows Grimes, Grimes unfollows Wojo, Stan Tweets about rejection.  The pieces aren't hard to put together here.  He gowne.

But we definitely had a shot, and we had absolutely nothing to lose.  Would've been an awesome luxury to add, but we'll still be really dang good next year.  If we can add Ramey or Herro so be it, but I for one am excited with what we have going into next year.

Here's by straw grasp, Kentucky drops in home visit with QG, QG tweets "3", Stan reassures QG with tweet about rejection opening a door to something better (MU?).

[Dawson Rental]

BD hopefully you have awoken from your jet lagged slumber. Any news to stop the panic or to put us out of suspense?

Like Mr. Ed, Big Daddy "never talks unless he has something to say."

[Dawson Rental]

Germans?

"Leave him alone, he's on a roll."

[Loose Cannon]

I'm waiting for Columbo's   take on all of this.

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

Just really sucks getting kicked in the nuts like this. Hard for MU to ever break into the elite of CBB, when you can't land kids like this. 

This one might be my favorite !!!

Muguru are u aware that in 3-4 years Wojo has signed 4-5 of the highest rated recruits to sign with MU in the last 40 years?
Amazingly shortsighted n dumb comment

Understatement of the year.

No sh*t sherlock..but the Hausers and Henry are in state kids. I'm talking about out of state 5** kids like Grimes.

I'm talking about winning recruiting battles for OUT OF STATE(5*) kids against the Kentucky's, the Kansas's, the UNC's, the Duke's of the world.
