Most uneventful decommittment since…Jalen James? Michael Orris?
Good call. I was a bit underwhelmed and surprised we took his commitment that early. It just seemed we had much higher targets still on our board. Now it’s time to close that deal or I’ll start whining about how Underwood can’t recruit. 😉

Schutt is visiting Duke this month. I hope he makes it out uncommitted.
With Duke, I get the draw, but in some ways I really don't. They are too much the "evil empire" for my liking. But, not to the level of Iowa or Michigan.

Nice to have the plan B on board, lowered stress about the class, but even nicer that the plan B saw he would not have a path and decommitted on his own, mutually benificial.

Our best recruiting tool won’t show up until tip-off of game 1. This team will be a lot of fun to watch. Kofi/Curbelo lobs will be on every highlight show in the nation.

As far as Casey maybe Indy or 0440 can answer how much the staff likes him and what are the chances we get him

I understand the vile feelings for them but if you were an elite storm trooper would you rather fight for the empire or the rebels. They the evil empire show these impressible young all the swag they have Their rich history of championship trophies, final 4 banners and it is hard not to be swayed. We will get there though I am very impressed with BU on how he built his original staff and the counter punches he threw to build his current one after the body blows he dealt with at the departures of said original staff.

Schutt ain’t happening. Still think we’re in well with Huff. I think Oweh could ultimately take Bass’s scholly.
Is there a decent chance Oweh commits next week after his visit? And is Huff scheduled for an OV? Thanks for any info ya got, DB11!
