If this kid can academically qualify its going to be a surprise although when major powers get involved this seems to often work out

Dunno. I haven't really paid much attention to Marshall up to this point.

If true, makes things interesting, scholarship wise, with Skal which can only be good for UT.

There's been some Mississippi State talk, but I'm just going off the typical visit trend. I don't think he has visited any school besides Memphis, you usually don't see a guy just shut things down and commit to a school he hasn't visited.

Nope but it does happen. Sometimes when a guy fears his spot will get taken.

Didn't Larry Austin commit last year before visiting?

Yup absolutely, but I'm not sure Marshall would be worried about losing his spot at Mississippi State, but could see that as the case at Memphis.

Honestly I hope it's Memphis if it's not us, give us a better chance at Skal and we likely won't have to face him.

There have been two major BB recruits from Lexington, Jerry Graves and Larry Fry, and both ended up at Mississippi State. Now both were years ago but MSU has had a pull in Lexington.

Skal's recruitment has been strange to say the least, but Memphis still has him as the #1 priority on their board. Even if they get Marshall, shouldn't affect Skal's decision.

If Memphis doesn't have a scholarship open and Skal decides to EE like it's being rumored is a possibility, it will absurelu affect Skal's decision.

The EE thing doesn't look likely for Skal. Now, his guardian is trying to set up a prep team or something weird.

Even if that's the case though, Pastner may have doubled back and reserved the one-year scholarship that he was promising to JuCo PG D'Marnier Cunningham after Pastner found out he was getting Kedren Johnson.

This. Chances of that happening again are slim, but Memphis is at 12 scholarships right now and I don't imagine Cunningham will be on scholarship any longer. Getting Johnson took care of that.

Memphis currently has an open scholarship, and I said Marshall committing wouldn't affect Skal, not Skal enrolling early.

Well MC was telling us all Cunningham was on scholarship so talk with him, I do believe if you've already issued the scholarship it's too late to revoke it though.

There was some talk that Cunningham could be offered a scholarship, but then Johnson signed so I don't know why this would still happen. I'll look into it, but when I checked the roster just now he is not listed, there are 12 scholarship players as of this morning.

Marshall just committed to Memphis. Talk that he will spend next year at prep school, then be part of the 2016 class.

There was some talk his grades needed improving, and also a year of prep school would allow him to work on his offense. A lot of things can happen in a year recruiting wise, but still not good news if you wanted to see him in a Tennessee uniform.

It may help get him a Tennessee uniform....if he is not eligible then he doesn't help anyone but in a yr he will have a better idea of what Tennessee is with CDT
