        could TA's dismissal be a blessing ?

      This is where Penny's great recruiting class could help the Shocks. JB come on in and see how you stack up against perhaps the best recruiting class in the country.

        This would certainly be great news and help soften the blow of losing a guy we were counting on.

            Swooping in and stealing him from West Virginia would be some sort of poetic justice.

            Also makes me consider the effort that must go into recruiting. Have we kept in contact this whole time just in case a scholarship happened to open up?

                  What’s up with him not committing anywhere by now?

                      In addition to his basketball prowess, he's clairvoyant too. Sign him up!

                    According to Burton's social media, they have a group at chicken and pickle tonight. Wonder if he's there

                        I know he visited Tennessee and they are hoping to get Kerry Blackshear. KU was putting him off for Wilson. Maybe the schools who want him the most weren’t as interesting to him. We probably kept tabs on him for quite a while even though we weren’t Top on his list. When this incident went down several days ago, our coaches put on a full court press to get him for a visit. Now we have a chance? Just a possible scenario.

                          I think he was hoping for an offer from a blue blood. When that didn’t come through, several P6 schools were looking for that last ship. Possible that they weren’t good fits.

                        The fact that he's willing to be flown in and use one of his official visits on such short notice has to be a great sign.
