I like the momentum we seem to have with Battle's recruitment.   I do wonder how & when his decision will happen;  all reports are that he doesn't want this to drag on (and his father said his decision will be relatively soon).   If that is the case, does our uncertain scholarship situation make Tyus wait a little longer for us?

jordoo:   To that end, were the quotes in the article referenced above about waiting to see how things shake out this summer from the Battle camp?  If so, I guess that means he's waiting on our situation clearing up?  Before the sanctions came out, I was under the impression he'd be deciding within the next two months.   Either way, we do seem to have Big Mo on our side (my dad always says that when watching a game with a change in momentum), despite the negative headlines.   If he's putting off his decision until the smoke clears with us, I'd like to think that's a great sign, considering he'd be adjusting his time frame to accommodate us.

I have to think JB and Hop's pitch was that with our limited scholarship situation, "Tyus:  you ARE our guy! We want you to be The Man for us."   As so many others have said, we are trying to turn a negative into a positive by emphasizing increased playing time and just how special our scholarship offers are.
