Recruiting as of 4/6

[JakeBarnes]

Just look at it for a mathematical perspective. Both Young and Gill were originally scheduled to be here the same weekend. You don't bring two guys in at the same time for one spot. Or if you do, you are creating a very, very awkward situation.

Throws a knife between the two.

I'm not so sure Brew.  This might be a situation where Wojo is dealing from a position of strength.  This feels like big time 'you've got 18 hours to decide cause I've got a line at the door, brother'.  I have no idea how ruthless it was at Duke.  But the principles can be the same.  I'm coming around to the theory that the bottom 10-15% of our roster is always at risk of 'the talk'.  Now to be fair there should be some limits on that for sure but always improve, always recruit.  And that's not to say that the 10% rule should always be applied to on court issues exclusively.  You're a mediocre teammate or not performing in the classroom that counts too.  It'll be interesting around here the next 2 weeks.

I think that if one or maybe even both of those grad transfers want to commit, then one or two of our undersized 4s (Wally, sandy, anim) get "the talk". I would say all of these undersized 4s are closer to the bottom 10% than they are the top 10%. I think the team will be best next season if one of the above guys transfer and we get a grad transfer. I'm all for running with the 13 guys we have now though.

Michigan State had Henry and Swanigan in for the same weekend and got neither.  It would be great if Wojo could close the deal with Gill.  He is just what we want a seasoned D -1 player ready for a big final year.

Did not mean to confuse anyone last night.  My brain battery was in the red and felt like I was landing with with a dead stick.  Keefe can explain that.

All three recruits are coming next year.

My guess on what was meant by "we will make it work" is something with Wally.  I didn't ask specifics.  I don't pry or push, that way I am only sharing what I am told and not putting anyone in a tough spot. In regards to SC3 I was not able to talk to him and Lil' Momma is closer with him and she was yapping with HE (see below) and did not talk to him either. So I do not have anything to say one way or another on that subject. 

What I know is that they are looking for another player for next year and want it to be someone that can play inside. However, Wojo has made it clear he is not going to add a body, just to add one.

As side note, I did not talk with Henry last night, but Lil' Momma spent a fair amount with Henry. He told her he was head to LA today with his agent to start work outs.  This may have been posted elsewhere, but I did not have time to look.

Shocking I tell you.  There's NO WAY Wally would do anything other than use his basketball scholly and play for Wojo.

Apples and oranges comparison. That visit was in September and MSU could have still taken both.

I think your facts may be off, but let's remember that Swanigan DID pick MSU.

Kalif & his coach are on record saying they could definitely wait until May to pick a school

Kalif will now visit Providence in May instead of this weekend...

Kalif has 2 unscheduled official visits left (Bama, MU, Prov scheduled in order now)

If he wants MU (which seems to fit his decision criteria best), then he may not be able to wait until his Providence visit to decide, Gill might make his decision for him.

[Jay Bee]

There is a reason that Marquette and Wisconsin have watched Kostas (and Terrance Lewis, for that matter) countless times and haven't offered

Watched Terrance again last night. I like him. For MU? Depends on how the roster shapes up and need to see juts a bit more from him. But, wouldn't write him off completely.

I suspect Wojo will give him 'a night to think about it', not more.  Guys at the door, my friend.

Close, but not quite. Brett's in Texas. adidas event, not NY2LA.

D1 Minnesota 16's - who Race plays for - is a _really_ good team.

Thanks for correction, good to know.

I think you mentioned your credentialed for the ny2la event. Who do you write for?

In fairness, I have read that he really has improved since I watched him last summer.
