Hats on the table. Marks has our hat, LaLa, and Nevada in front of him.

It's unsure, but it appears Marks has never visited Nevada and they just barely offered 2 weeks ago. Would be a very interesting commitment if he did choose them, to say the least.

6'3" 180 lb receiver for Bishop Dunne. Just transferred there from Greenville High School in Greenville, TX. We are Wilson's 9th offer. Was set to announce his school yesterday but pushed it back and we are now attempting to enter the race. Arkansas State, BYU, and Indiana were believed to be the favorites had he announced, and he plans on visiting those school. Maybe being closer than those schools can help us.

Bump. Announcing tomorrow.

Announcing his commitment tomorrow. Us, SMU, Nevada, Sam Houston State, and Louisiana Lafayette are his offers. Would be a nice commitment. Can play guard or tackle.

My number 1 realistic want at right tackle for this class. Evan Curl isn't far behind. Wilds at right and Larry Hughes at left tackle. If we could pull two of those three guys that'd be a great haul at tackle. Apparently we're trying to take three tackles this year.

Committed to UNC-Charlotte. We stopped recruiting him after Walters left. May end up playing against him.

That one hurts a little bit. Fortunately we still have some good interior linemen and centers left on our board, but I was really hoping we could pull this kid.

It was always just a matter of time, but Jordan Scarlett has decommitted from FAU. Will be interesting to see if that class starts to lose their momentum and maybe some more commits. Scarlett has 2 high school teammates currently committed to FAU.

That 1:1.2 assist to turnover ratio bugs me. People complained about Chris' turnovers and his ratio was 2:1. Hopefully the step-down in competition leads to a big improvement. We need him to be the man here, in this offense.

Transferred to Prattville in Prattville, Al. Committed to Duke today.

Commits to Kansas

Here are a couple more similar cases. Brandan Kearney. Played at Michigan State as a freshman (2011-2012) and played his first semester of his sophomore year (fall 2012) at Michigan State, then decided to transfer to Arizona State. Sat out spring 2013 at Arizona State then became eligible in spring 2014 when he then played the second half of that season as a junior. Despite sitting out those 2 semesters he didn't get to count that as a redshirt. Essentially burned the second half of his sophomore year and first half of his junior year through this transfer process. http://archive.azcentral.com/sports/asu/articles/20131220transfer-brandan-kearney-make-arizona-state-debut-today.html Jeronne Maymon. Played the first 10 games of his freshman year (fall 2009) at Marquette and then realized he didn't want to play for Buzz Williams anymore. Then sat out spring 2010 at Tennessee and fall 2010. Began playing in spring 2011 as a true sophomore. Again, didn't get to claim that year sitting out as a redshirt. Played the 2011-2012 season as a junior, then sat out 2012-2013 due to injury. He still had his redshirt eligibility, which he used on the injury. http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/309830-jeronne-maymon-just-never-got-it-at-marquette http://www.utsports.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/jeronne_maymon_639445.html The major difference is Reese is transferring because he was dismissed. But I can't see that being a reason for the NCAA to allow him to resume play in the fall, certainly not as a redshirt sophomore.

6'3" 208 lb linebacker from Houston. Plays defensive end for his high school. Would be a really good fit as a 3-4 outside linebacker but, theoretically, if he were to play for us he probably projects as a defensive end. Has offers from Vanderbilt, Duke, and us.

He and PJ Locke have moved up their commitment to July 1st. Also, we offered Locke as well but he has since eliminated us.

Vito's recruiting series on Jackson. Says he may commit this summer and location doesn't really matter (military family). http://share.d-news.co/ci49n8l

It's because you said "guess he's intrigued by the idea of going 1-7 in conference play and 3-9 overall." And "go ahead and run to that 'name brand.'" Why shouldn't he be excited and intrigued about an SEC offer? Why wouldn't he give them a serious look?

Committed to Miami

It's hard to compare. Clearly Reese was the more decorated player out of high school. Other than that, CJ was probably the more accomplished college player but you have to factor in that he was doing it against Sun Belt and CUSA foes vs the SEC like Reese was. Reese's career high was only 15 points while CJ went for over 30 as a freshman against Texas Tech. But not a whole lot from CJ the last two years. Reese also is not a huge assist guy. He averaged just 1 assist a game last year and less than 2 a game as a freshman. He also has been suspended on multiple occasions so there's that risk as well. I guess in short we'll just have to wait and see. High risk, high reward situation. But with the large turnover we've been seeing in this program and the fact that it was an open spot this late, well worth the risk.

I don't know. I think he still has a lot more to do to prove that. He has to win more recruiting battles in order to get that distinguishment IMO. The four guards he signed this class had 1 combined other offer, and it's unsure who else was giving this kid a chance. But a great get for sure. *As for his eligibility, based on NCAA precedent and what NT03 has said, the most likely scenario is that he sits the first semester of the season and begins playing the second half of the season as a junior. Even though he will have sat out for 2 semesters total (last spring and this upcoming fall) he can't claim that as sitting out a season, therefore can't claim it as a redshirt. He will be a true junior once he starts playing again. He can't get his second semester of his sophomore year back and he can't get his first semester of his junior year back. They're burned even though he never played. Still a good deal. He also has his redshirt eligibility if he ever had to use it, but if everything goes according to plan he won't and he'll just play the next 1.5 seasons and likely be our starting point guard for most or all of that time.

That's pretty huge. Wonder if he'll be eligible to play the second half of next season.

You're far from the only one. Vito just recently did it to.http://share.d-news.co/AqbdI3I

6'7" 275 lb offensive lineman for Butler CC in Kansas. Also holds offers from Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri, and Arkansas. I've been wondering if we'd recruit a JUCO OT with Antonio Johnson, the only true left tackle on our roster, being a senior this season.

That's a possibility. That happens in college basketball

Sit out a year then have 2 more years, likely. Class of 2012, so he's played for 2 seasons already.
