Is saga still going on? We should pull the offer and give to a kid who wants to be here. Would rather have BJ back it’s not like this kid is program changing talent

Let me get this straight--we've been recruiting this kid for more than a year, we're the front runner, and by all accounts we are mere days away from him making his final decision--and you want to pull his offer?

Right.

Well, he hasn't committed to SU by the poster's personal deadline. Doesn't TT know that he has to make up his mind by a certain date otherwise he's persona non grata?

Sometimes I think that the recruits don't realize that this is about us, it is so frustrating.

 

[Toga]

I hear TT's commitment is imminent. Unless things change.

Commitment to whom?

 

[Day2]

If the Brewster coach is to be believed, don't forget:

 

[Day2]

I've learned people say things on this forum to get attention and feel important. If a commitment is " imminent" I should know within 1 minute...

Somehow I don't think I will.

No, that would be "immediate."

That's not the definition of imminent. It is near. And certain posters that are connected are not trying to feel important, they are sharing information as well as they can without compromising their source for those of us that appreciate it.

Dumbest post of the year. Congrats.

Hell, that's not even the dumbest post since page 80!

All I am saying is this, we should be casting a bigger net. We waited for TB last year how did that work out? Diagne did not even make it to the hill. If this was Giles I would understand the circus but he is not…

Who else do you think they're going to get right now?

We should not be in this position that’s the point. Did you forget we coming off of final four run?

 

[pearl31]

There are at least 10 uncommitted bigs out there in 2016.

Right.

We are still deciding if we are going to pull back the offer. There's a difference.

I agree. It would be lot less fun for the players if there were no fans.

Did you forget that most of the bigs were gone by then? Did you forget that - along with TT - we pursued Yurtseven, Dembele, Cavanaugh and the kid from Canada? Did you forget that we have limited time and resources because of the sanctions?

Did you forget how many times we've posted all of the above information in this godforesaken thread?

How does that help us with Class of '16 recruiting:? 90+ of the top 100 were already inked by the time that occurred.

I'll tell you what, if TT picks MSU or SH, we can say publicly we pulled the offer, ala Rutgers, so it makes us look like it was our decision...

No not at all. I do understand the obstacles we have faced this year. But I find hard to fathom that TT is our only option at this point.

If that were to some out as the lie it would be makes the Orange the laughing singularity in the recruiting part of the sports we are involved with now and in the future. It might seem right in the short run but it would be a mistake.
