Seems strange that he is talking about a top 8 when he already has official visits lined up.
Oh boy- if you can't see the difference between the recruitment of those guys versus what Martin does, I just am at a loss. Martin has no ethics.
Nolley says he is committing on halloween
Also changed his official visit list - think UConn and OK State were dropped. Seems to like the state of Georgia.

Well he started that bracket thing I think he just wants to finish it. I'd imagine he's really down to 4-5 schools at this point if not a definite top 3.

#Illini priority wing Landers Nolley also tells me Buzz Williams & the Virginia Tech staff had an in-home visit today.
Strange in that Flightaware has the Lear going from Willard to ATL this morning and back to Willard from ATL late this afternoon. That has to be "whole" staff right?? Somebody messin with us??

Staff was there. Don't know who met who coming and going but the Nolley house was a bit busy.

It'll come down to us and VT.
Pretty weird (to me) he would want to do an OV to Tech, and would even consider Ga State. I'm sure he's been downtown many times and probably on campus of both many times already. The only difference in the campus' is they are on opposite sides of 75/85. But Tech actually feels like a college campus.
Even Georgia for that matter. Imo we seem like a clear cut winner in this recruitment.

The fact that 3 of his 5 are in Georgia tells me that he's really interested in staying local. Even VA Tech isn't that far from Atlanta. About a 6 hour drive.
And Buzz Williams can definitely recruit.
We are definitely the best program on his list, but I don't see this as being an easy win for us.

I think Illinois leads and wants to look at local schools one last time. Might be to satisfy coach, parents, friends. But I think he is going out of state.
Nolleys' lady from WBB made an appearance today during the in-home.

No it's really not. Try to rationalize this kind of crap however you want but this isn't the "norm" in college basketball it's what select sleezeballs do recruiting wise. Sampson was one. Calipari use to be one (he doesn't need to anymore). Martin is another.
Plenty of good coaches out there that would tell a committed kid that they'd love to recruit him but he needs to decommit first.
Man, I wish he had more to show for it.JFG played the grey
