With 2 shooting guards already committed, and possibly only one open ship; I can't see NT going after another.

Checked with Texas Hoops and they no longer are showing Pye as a NT commit. Maybe we just have Overlander.

Pye is a solid commit. Probably a website error.

Still committed as of last night

Have you seen much of him? Any possibility he could play the point ? Still shows he didn't sign. If things happen, he may be a very good option talent wise.

I've been trying to figure out what his situation is for weeks now. Oddly quiet in terms of recruiting.

He said via Twitter that he'd be signing somewhere in April, but there's very little discussion of the guy anywhere. It's like he fell off the map after AAU season last year. Went from the national top 150 to practically ignored.

I'm wondering whether there may be some eligibility concerns that are scaring people away? Doesn't make much sense otherwise.

Stevenson signed with Seward CC ( KS)

Even after a year of prep school?

That's probably not a good sign.
