Looks like another "Tubby Smith"-esce purging is about to take place. Instead of all the inconsequential BS the NCAA concentrates on to fill their coffers and keep them in business wasting time, I wish they'd stop this sleazy mass booting stuff. They really should make it so you cannot...

Is he any relationship to Alan, who signed with tOSU in 1982 but left after a year? I remember talking to him a couple of times his freshman year at a bar we both frequented.

Is your understanding somehow a prerequisite for posting here? I thought this was a public board for anyone to use and post their opinions and converse at. Some folks seem to get territorial and think they own the place!:tongue2: Open up your mind and get around more! There are a lot of...

I love that we signed Lenzelle and feel he has a bright future as a buckeye. But I am a realist about frosh point guards starting in college. I have never seen him in person, just clips. But I don't understand what that matters as I am neither a talent scout nor a recruiting pro. If some...

"regardless of the outcomes of their games, advance to New York for the semifinals Nov.19" Do they really have a tournament for which the first two rounds results DON'T MATTER as to who advances? That is some dumb azz setup.

Having just 1 guy as a candidate at such a vital spot will never let me relax. On a roster of 12-13 you'd want to have at least 2 and probably more point guards. Is anyone really that confident that Smith can start at PG as a green frosh and lead the team? Really? I aint! I want a better...

Many keep spouting the DAY mantra or even WV, and here this says they aren't even in his final 3. Gotta give him credit for having so many confused!

The ESPN site lists him as 6'5, so maybe that's where Baptist got his info. LS is considered more of a scorer and point forward type right now. He is learning the PG position. I hope the coaches don't expect him to come in and start and be the answer at PG his freshman season. He has...

He didn't end up visiting because Boals was hired away by TM before he could make it up there - but it was going to be to check out the University - not because he'd be in the neighborhood by chance! Boals also got Zeke Marshall to commit and some have him in their T50. I've heard some claim...

Boals had him contemplating Akron U, which is more than twice as far away from home as we are! I do think there is a draw to keep him close to home. I also think he may have a liking for a smaller campus and to be a bigger focus at a smaller basketball program. Hopefully Boals can turn his...

I tend to agree. I think he doesn't want to look tooo antsy or desparate and maybe not dish X too much by jumping at the offer in seconds. But I doubt he takes a lot of time as this sounds like it was his dream scenario and you never know when they might fill up the class. I wouldn't snooze...

Why would OU offering ( or that a small program HC, like Groce still is, recruiting him ) answer the questions about his capability to play at the hi major level? His offers are Akron, James Madison, and OU. Not hi majors by any means. It's early and he may prove himself, but for now that...

I too am perplexed at his saying the staff hadn't been in contact or really recruiting him for a while. Maybe the question on APR and schollies had them confused, or maybe his lack of mutual interest was a contributing factor ( supposedly he is more inclined toward a smaller campus )...

I don't know how anyone could be "not so worried about the point". Smith, who will be a freshman, is the only PG we will have as of now. And he is trying to convert to it from playing inside in high school so far. Can anyone legitimately say they are comfortable with him starting and playing...

I'd bet a lot of money that it is far more likely that Joseph and Pressey BOTH have valid current offers than that Trae Golden or Pe'Shon Howard do ( who are still listed as having them on this site )!!! Joseph and Pressey are too highly sought and hot commodities ( given our need for a PG )...

One thing I've noticed is that recruiting guru types are less likely to put these flea-sized PGs on their T100 type lists. They know that 5'8 PGs are a dime-a-dozen at the high school level yet very few have the physical skills needed to overcome that at the next level. So those that are...

That's the pertinent question, IS HE QUICK ENOUGH to overcome his size limitations. I like what I've seen of him but am also not 100% sure yet. He does get kudos from the scouts watching him in AAU ( comparing him to other hi calibre players ) so there is at least some reason to believe he may...

Whoever updates these profiles, shouldn't Joseph and Phil Pressey both be in "Offered" status now? I thought I read that Bob Baptist of the Dispatch reported they both have offers now!

+1 I think the analogy to a guy wanting his g/f to break up with HIM is spot on. They gave him the cold shoulder hoping he'd get the message and eventually he did. That isn't how I want my coaching staff BEHAVING. It appears Groce went out on a libm for Golden and Wright and Thad eventually...

You'd think some PGs out there would realize what a great spot this is for them to come into. But having said that it is actually LATE in the process to be getting involved with 2010 recruits. Many have already verballed or are narrowing lists, so they aren't that interested in new interest...
