All of the Freeman collapse was last night, cleverly after eod on a holiday. Auburn is a much higher offer and we typically don’t re-enter those games. Don’t know if it can be saved. Maybe. Rice is also tenuous as I said Thursday. His personal communication with us is ongoing, but Willard continues to drag his agent. The Ament thing is only holding because we promised him his moment. We need to all appreciate that he’s the highest modern recruit we’ve signed and has freaky length for a 3. It’s a huge get. I continue to believe we’ll put together a great roster top to bottom, knowing that there are unanswered questions. One odd variable is that there is a threatened class action suit from the 25 class to pursue damages if they are excluded from the fifth year. Remember that the pool of possibilities there is not just ZZ and Gainey, but players from other schools. Many teams are holding space and money based on this. Look for Basilio to have a new position on all these matters following this post. Legion of Poon will update us in the morning.
