Update on Syracuse S commit Marquise Blair includes all-star games, academic situation, Pitt interest: http://bit.ly/1CmA71h
"I do think (Blair) still feels very adamant about Syracuse and comfortable with the decision that he's made," Haas said.
The bigger question mark is likely Blair's academic situation. Haas said Blair has made significant strides in the classroom and referenced multiple B's on the transcript in front of him during the phone call.
"Once below-average grades are now above-average grades," Haas said. "He's really buckled down himself personally. As a coach and educator that makes you proud."
Still, Haas said Blair's qualification will be close. He scored well on the ACT and will continue to take it, but the key will be increasing his GPA enough this final semester to meet the sliding-scale standard held by the NCAA Clearninghouse, Haas said."
