Please don't turn into a Whitehead/Briscoe circus.

This. Exactly this. They realized that they rushed into a commitment and don't want to repeat that mistake. The fact they are avoiding talking to the media about it means it IS the exact opposite of a circus. They're not running around talking to anyone who will listen. They're saying "please give us some space to figure out what is best for Tyus and our family."It doesn't seem like a "circus" at all. Given how tight lipped the family is being, if anything it is the OPPOSITE of a circus.
They made a mistake, and now they want to make sure that they do all necessary due dilligence to get the decision right. Nothing wrong with that. Have faith.
Fair point. I guess.I know we all want a commit yesterday but it's still a teenager figuring out his college choice.

What were options b through d before battle declared? I think JB kind of goofed here too.PeteCalvin said:Welcome to the world of major D1 recruiting. Michigan isn't the first school to have this happen to them. The guy is hammering on an 18-year old kid. Michigan screwed themselves putting all their eggs in two baskets. JB learned a long time ago you better have options beyond A and B (Kenny Anderson and Stephon fiascos).
Yes, yes, and probably not. But I would say the same about at least 3 of the 4 recruits we're bringing in this year.Is this guy a game changer? And by that I mean could he be part of bringing us another national title? Like Melo did?
Wait - you think we could legitimately compete for the national title with these 4 freshmen coming in next year???!

He won't stay though. He's one and done as could these 4 freshmen coming in.No, but that's not what you asked. You asked if he could be a part of bringing us a national title--and he could be a PART of that (especially if he stays a few years). So could the freshman we're bringing in, but probably not until they're juniors. That's why I said probably not to your question about Melo.
100%????100 percent
101 percentIf you had to put a percentage on him being orange, what would you say? Make me feel all warm and fuzzy please.

Battle comes, KJ goes, IMO.
This is how I feel.I'm going to assume he's not coming here until he commits. We've been burned too many times lately.
