Maybe either SU or TT or both decided to wait to announce until he has cleared the NCAA...Why announce when, at the moment, you know you are not eligible?

Hence my post a few pages back. Does announcing and signing paperwork trigger the start of the NCAA Clearinghouse process? And if it does, accepting what Orangeman13 says, he would be found to be ineligible. Would an appeal in that case, after completing the course in question risk taking longer than waiting and signing when coursework is complete? Compound this scenario with a kid who is radio silent on social media and you end up with a 175 page thread of speculation, song lyrics, hot girl pictures and assorted memes.

Online courses are self paced!

I'm with you O13 and thanks for sharing. Do you know definitively if TT plans on enrolling in time for Summer Session II on July 5? If that doesn't happen there will be a real impact on his opportunity to jump start his academic requirements at Cuse and bond with his future teammates.

I feel like we are making progress. We just have to stay focused as a fan base.

 

[AirForceOrange]

No pun intended.

Nice catch! Was wondering if someone would get it...

175 pages! Wow... just Wow! I realize we're down to 8 scholarships, but is there a point where the staff yanks the offer based on principle? I realize principle does win games, but this kid and family have got to be kidding!

Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion on what they think SU should do in this recruitment. But without really knowing anything about the real inside story other than that he has not committed, I find it difficult to second guess the staff and to recommend we move on. Not sure who Plan B would be at this point anyway so what's the harm in waiting this out?

I agree, but at some point make a decision, you have visited all three schools, you know what the deal is.

If SU fans are frustrated with this situation, just think how the staff is feeling. Must be monumentally frustrating for the staff to not have a decision on their final piece for next year.

I think we should all stand and clap until he signs.

We all should have to post a new post to this thread every hour until he does

So has anyone started the "TT's birthday is tomorrow so he's waiting until he's 18 so he can sign without his moms permission" rumor yet?
