His father has indicated they'll set down and make decisions after they are done. |

He seems to be giving Kentucky, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Syracuse, Maryland, West Virginia, and Tennessee equal opportunity to get his signature. |

What do you think? |

What do you think? | I'll be slightly surprised if he doesn't sign with Syracuse. Further, if he's really set on playing point forward, nobody has used their 3s and 4s better out on the floor the last two seasons than West Virginia. |

WVU has as well. I'm sure Cal is selling him on taking on a Robert Dozier role in the dribble-drive. It seems out of what I've seen of UK, WVU, Syracuse, and UT that Tennessee has the ball in the hands of the 4 more than the rest. Hopefully, this will work in enticing Harris. |

Very true. It should be an interesting recruiting battle... |

| I have read every free interview with the family.
Rick Pitino banging a slut in a restaraunt and then buying her abortion will not sit well with his family.
His parents talk about wanting him to be around good people.
Syracuse probably leads, but I think we may be in second. He has said nice things about every place he visits, but he knows in our system he can replace Tyler Smith and get tons of touches right off the bat, and that is not something Calipari can offer because even if 5 of his players head to the NBA after this year, his frontcourt class will be much stronger than ours.
If we can beat out Syracuse, I think we get Harris.
It also looks like we may be far behind Jay Wright who is a great recruiter in trying to pull Pinkston. |
