I didn't imply he was going leave mid semester, not sure where you got that from? If he already made up his mind to transfer, I'm not sure how announcing later would benefit him. To me it seems the earlier he announces his decision to transfer, then more schools have a chance to recruit his talents.

And you can announce and still finish your semester..

Absolutely you can, you can also announce later she end up at a school that you wouldn't have earlier because now they're desperate. It's also possible he already knows how next destination and sees no benefit in announcing now while remaining in Knoxville 2 more months.

I've maintained we have a chance, but don't have any info to lean me in either direction previously. Tennessee was in early, and Tennessee has as much playing time and shot/rebounds as the guy can handle available, those are 2 things many schools on his list can't say. Obviously the negative is that we are down, and a NCAAT is no guarantee (chances increase with him), so he may not get the spotlight some of those others schools can offer.

Thanks


I give us a 20% shot and that's better than before I saw GFWs post


I agree with the op. I am surprised we haven't heard an announcement of kasongo transferring

Currently our class sits at the 44th overall rank, and 6th in the SEC on 247. In the SEC that's not bad.

Add Yurtseven and we shoot up to 17th in the current rankings, and 3rd in the SEC. That's a huge foundation to build off of, and GFW makes me very optimistic. Gonna be very interesting.

Based on just 247's ranking (not the composite) we are listed as 27th overall. All out players are higher ranked by 247 than the other sites.

I wonder why our composite scores are so low then?

247 composite is a joke. It's a marketing tool in hopes of getting people to use their site as a one stop shop for recruiting rankings. It's a sham. It isn't accurate and they aren't able to keep up with the updates of other sites. Also, there's not enough data given on many recruits to make an apples to apples comparison.

Doesn't mean he is gone. It means he will submit his name and see where he stands. If he doesn't hire an agent he can come back.

7 foot post men are hard to find.

I read that 1 out of every 6 Americans that are 7 feet tall or taller end up with an NBA team. 17% chance.

Pitt has now offered the job to Stallings and he is likely to accept, supposedly the 2 teams are negotiating his current buyout. Lots of talk about Will Wade and Vandebikt if Stallings to Pitt happens, would have to wonder if De'Riante Jenkins would look to reopen his recruitment from VCU.
