I might be off - but I think Zelda was referring to the fact that the last game he saw before he made a decision was Colgate as opposed to vs. MSU in the Garden. He kinda got to see all UK can be and deliever. If he saw us in the Dome vs. Duke infront of 35K this week, who knows if that would have left a bigger impact on him

I understood. Just doesn't seem likely that it was a "what have you shown me lately" scenario that would win out in the end re: attendance/competition/venue. It's been two years. He knows all that.

Would love to see a credible sports journalist shine some light on World Wide Wes's shady involvement with UK basketball. Needs to happen.

Pete thamel did. found this article. Agency Tie May Limit Wesley’s Basketball Recruiting

Didn't know who WWW was. Wow. Definitely wouldn't want my son near the guy. His whole relationship with Cal seems real shady. WWW's whole life seems shady.

You would think Cuse playing in Barclays might interest him or the fact we play at MSG at least once a year it seems. Wait until 12/5 and see the turn out we get for UConn there. That will be a great atmosphere. I truly have a hard time buying the game scenario about who we played early.
 
If Greene was sitting with WWW at MSG on Tuesday night, that explains the entire thing. It's happened with other high profile kids who immediately commit after "the talk with WWW". Happened with Dakari Johnson who we recruited heavily and Anthony Davis.

Do you think the fact that uk's arena is named after a notorious racist who the fan base unapologetically adores has any impact on recruiting?

I should add does quade want to play in front of possibly the most red neck, ignorant collaboration of people, possibly on earth. I mean kentuckians make people from arkansas look intelligent

He wasn't sitting with WWW. That was not WWW pictured behind him. But some folks said WWW was there.

It's really hard to believe his decision hasn't leaked out to the media in this day and age.

Yep. No peep from the UK side. CuseMan4 saying it's UK for sure and O13 saying it's Cuse for sure. Dasher has kind of backed off either way and we haven't heard from Jake all day.

no, this is crazy talk. We are not in high school and despite SOME people's opinions, I do not get personal satisfaction from the Internet. I DO get satisfaction from Syracuse winning!

The only gloating I would do is to UK and how they treat players like meat. At least we recognized Green when UK wouldn't give him the time of day. Hint: that played THE DECIDING FACTOR in his decision.

O13, any update on your end? Still confident as before? Noting CuseMan4 confident it is UK...

Just a note, I haven't backed off. I have never known what he would choose. I just know that this week has been crazy. He was ours. He was theirs. I fear it is them just because no one has called me and said that hey, we got him back. But we will know soon enough.

Looking like it has. Isn't every credible journalist/ source saying UK?

Understood. Maybe backed off isn't the right word - I was mainly talking about your post earlier toady when you said we might be back in it

I haven't seen any journalist proclaim he's definitely going to Kentucky... mostly just predictions. I could be wrong, I just haven't been scouring the Internet.

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone knows...or if he's just picking live

True but most journalists as a rule try not to ruin a kid's moment.

You'd hope that would be the case, but I bet if one of them had the scoop before anyone else they'd let it fly.
