| If they announce together that is not a good sign. | |

Had he not gotten Jones they would have been dreadful in the front court and a bad team overall. | |

| You guys have proof? Because I know that you're barking down a trail that many a reporter has explored before. | |

It was such an odd situation - you think one heartfelt speech from Cal made him turn his back on his home school were everyone wanted him to be? After he had just made his commitment and was about to sign? Lol.
It's happened with UT football players in the past many times - and it's happening every year at UK with Cal there. No point in denying it. The NCAA can't stop it.
Hell I'm pretty sure even average players at UT like Bobby Maze got illegal benefits while here. | |

I don't think Memphis has seriously considered Wilbut for a while now, and the feeling is probably mutual.
I think Wilbut goes to UVA. | |

| If Cal manages to whiff on both players he may have to resort back to his pay for play days.
That being said, if they're both announcing today then I would feel pretty confident if I were a cat fan. | |
