But if this info is true (and I've seen that it basically is confirmed), THT didn't do anything wrong here. It's caving to Ayo's camp when THT became a real possibility, which would kinda be like begging Ayo to remain with Illinois.

There is likely 0% chance of that happening. They already have 2 SF/wings committed and I believe they're out of scholarships, so they'd have to clear a space for Ayo. So not sure they'd over-sign by 2.

It's how the twitter user is choosing to describe the player. After looking at some videos, articles, and the 247/Scout rankings, I can't really tell how good of a player he is. Eval write-ups make him seem like he has good potential but needs time to develop and refine his game.

Connections can really help in getting schools a foot in the door and leg up in recruiting but when it comes to crunch time, you've still got to sell your program & vision to get the commitment. Ayo is not going to come to Illinois simply because the school has a family friend and former leader...

Why is this a good thing? VT really got a heavy flow of crystal balls starting about two weeks ago, wouldn't that correspond decently well to his claim of having decided two weeks ago?

Andrew Slater generally knows his stuff, especially when it concerns the ACC (VT).

You also have look at other class rankings than 247's system. 247 is strictly computer based and does weird computations sometimes, such as how Duke has two 5* commits yet is not the #1 class right now.

Wake is going to get Devoe for two reasons: 1. They'll take whichever PG wants to come first. Devoe is likely deciding first. Bird in the hand... yada yada yada. 2. Devoe is more of the classic PG with a strong outside shot versus Ayo's playmaking. With the athletic wings committed already, an...

If you announce three weeks out that you're going to commit (while also insinuating that you're going to keep your visit during the announcement date), you might as well just announce the commitment now. With that said, I bet the visit is either cancelled or moved up. The visit update news...

Thankfully that's not going to come to fruition. If it did, I think that'd finally kill the NCAA. The Power 5 teams would be a totally separate "amateur" sports association than the other schools due to that rule and the eventual increasing of monetary assistance/payment to players.

I dont know how much I read into the in-home visit. Sadly, depending on Dotson's visit with him, I could see both pulling the trigger in a few days. Maybe Dotson commits, which leads to Castleton staying open and allowing us the chance to sway him with the in-home.

He'll not be attending that as he's scheduled to take his official to WF on that weekend.

Nevermind, forgot they changed the rule. I don't handle recruiting anymore. Disregard.
