I don't think this is a play by play event. We are in this thing.

 

[mickbird44]

Any chance Devo finds his way on the staff?

IJ looking down at Syracuse jersey saying, dang, if this was only written in script, I'd 100% committed already.

No.

So Mike Waters had a recent article suggesting that Dre had been in contact with IJ to play together at Cuse. Do you think Dre is committing to UCONN because IJ told him he is committing elsewhere?

Package deals are not a thing.

i wonder if wes has any eligibility left. sounds like he's ready to sign.

I think Wes grew up a DC fan...just a guess

 

[SUFan44]

Very rarely are there any public comments made about an official visit from the parents to the players that are negative.

Most everyone enjoys themselves when the red carpet is rolled out.

Then I'm surprised he's not pushing IJ towards Georgetown or even GW.

Alright folks. Just spent 3 hours with my source and wanted to filll everyone in. This is strictly an SU and UK race now. After his SU visit, he informed certain people Bama is out as of today. He wants big time program. He is still going to take his visit to Bama most likely because the staff is encouraging this, but this is now strictly down to UK and SU. Bama was a solid contender going into this weekend but now they are completely eliminated from what I’m told... this is a very solid family he has with mom and dad and this will still take a while for a commitment and I don’t get my hopes up because these are still kids, but SU is in an incredible spot...

Crazy story that was shared with me was that he didn’t like how his recruitment was going with certain schools and started to watch film on how “he wanted to play” and HE reached out to SU and a certain asst coach. Talked about certain players. Certain schemes. Everything. Staff was kinda taken aback. The push on his end is why SU is where they are and this makes me think this kid truly truly loves SU. Like I said I don’t get my hopes up but this has truly become a coin flip out of nowhere... I’m prob not going to have anything new for a little while but Bama is out and that I know of for sure ...

So it's a choice between "Playing the way he wants to play" and "Bags of cash".

I would hope he could see the writing on the wall and the now almost inevitable investigations of these 'presumed dirty' programs, and wouldn't want to tarnish his family/name/reputation, but hey— what do i know.

Thank you for sharing! Pretty cool that he reached out like that. I bet that doesnt happen too often this late in a recruitment especially with a kid who is already being recruited by tons of schools and is a top 25 player in his class. Seems like a smart kid with great parents guiding him through the process.
