| We will not get any verbals tonight. Irving is there for the hell of it, pretty sure he is Duke bound. Harris and family are to grounded to make a rash decision like that. They have stated already that they will probably not announce until November sometime. I don't think UK is the leader for him anyway.
The biggest thing UK can accomplish tonight is securing front runner status for Leslie (which we are, from what I hear) and Yacoubou.
Above all this is continuing the good relationship with Gilchrist, who has been considered a strong UK lean for a while now. |

I can say with the same amount of confidence that their concern is warranted. |

I read where he seems to be waffling back and forth, back and forth between the two. Jay Wright certainly makes a good pitch. Some say that even though he has 2 years left of recruiting, that he is thinking of deciding fairly soon. I hope his visit tonight helps to reaffirm his original statement/thought of playing for Cal. |

I just don't see him committing anywhere based strictly on an emotional decision. I think he has thoroughly researched all the teams still in it for him, and he will go to the school that is going to best utilize his talents. I HOPE THAT TURNS OUT TO BE TENNESSEE. |

| Also, CJ Leslie cancelled his visit to BBM a few hours before it started. Said it was because of travel issues. |
