Class of 2016 PG Tyus Battle (NJ) Signed LOI

[ORANGE OATH]

I try to be a positive person, but the only valid reason I could believe Tyus Battle does not give us the green light today is do to the introduction of our new AD. Other than that I am getting a little concerned with the situation.

Maybe you guys need a break from teh internets for a minute or two.

And for the record I practice what I preach. I could have went anywhere for grad school - completely funded. I came to the 'Cuse baby!!!!

Sorry. I'm really into this right now.

You remind of another poster. Are your movements being tracked by a persistent tabloid reporter named Jack McGee?

You could say almost the exact same thing about the other schools he's looking at. Don't you think Duke, for example, could make a pretty damn strong case?

Nope - was reading the Duke board - Battle isn't even on their wish list - they'd take him but they prefer others - he is our first choice - over Simmons who is technically rated higher - all of these top flight kids what to play early and want the NBA - we provide that, the ACC conference and a 4 hour drive to watch him play in front of 30K - we are the ideal "fit" for him - now, if he personally doesn't like something about the University then that's a different story - it would defy logic for him not come to Cuse

How long did it take Carmelo to decide? lol

He was a Cuse lock but had to wait for the test score. He called JB from school almost immediately after he found out he got the score.

Why David Banner's alter ego didn't just drop a bus on McGee is beyond me. No McGee, a lot less running.

And as we all know, if teenagers are anything, it's logical.

I am not so sure...maybe a relative of the one and only instead?

Everyone's anxiously awaiting this kid's college decision and I can't even decide what I want for dinner tonight, lol. I hope the media is giving this kid a break, he's about to make one of the biggest decisions of his life, he deserves some time and space.

 

[CuseHulk]

Better watch out, insiders. If we don't get a boom by the end of the weekend, Hulk smash!

This is a joke. Make a decision already kid. It's Monday. U visited over the weekend.

What about 2 + 2= 4. What's the hold up.

 

[IthacaMatt]

If he visited UConn it would be a sign that something was lacking in his trip to syracuse. It wouldn't mean he was going to UConn per se.

If he visits UConn, the phone call goes out to Gilbert for a yes or no, and then on to Huerter. We only have 1 more spot. It's not like ordinary years where we can expect a top target to stretch it out to November. I think the staff wants this done.

Technically he doesn't have to decide for like ten months, however he has been in being recruited mode for three or four years. Maybe he is looking for a sign from god.

He told me he won't commit until you stop posting.

I know, crazy right? What do you say--take one for the team?

 

[IthacaMatt]

Yes, it's looking like UM will wind up without a chair when the music stops.

Nonsense. Early signing period isn't for more than 4 months. They have plenty of time to find someone.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Then we should be a contender in 2 years right? This class is loaded!

IF we had McCullough and/or Bryant, we could compete for a championship. Without either one of them, and with DC such a question mark, we are a top 25 type of team, IMO.

One of the world's greatest mysteries: CuseHulk has 596 likes. Orange79: You are dubbed our, "internet sleuth." Could you get to the bottom of this? If I contributed to the tally, mea culpa.

 

[cusetown1]

I don't think he's going to commit to another school the Monday after like he did for Michigan . He won't make the same mistake twice he's letting it all absorb imo.

 

[RF2044]

I thought heard this was gonna be a boom by the end of the weekend.

Now it's Monday.

How do you know that he hasn't committed?

I'm sure I am responsible for a large portion of those likes

Being able to acknowledge one's mistakes in life is an important aspect of a person's growth and maturation.

Nothings official until it's official.

Anytime one of his posts gives me the same reaction as the one in post #1880, I throw him a like

Thanks, Yogi.

That restaurant's too crowded. No one goes there anymore.
