Someone probably will leave early, but one advantage in holding the scholly, IMO, is that it might make it easier to get a commitment from someone for the November signing period. We would actually have an open scholly to give out, rather than a promise that one will somehow open up.
Unless we can get someone a lot better in the '09 class, I'd like to get Ferrakohn Hall of Memphis White Station, especially if it will help us with Joe Jackson. Why not keep that talented pipeline going? It would be nice if we could get Leslie in the Fall and Hall or some other big man in the Spring. It sounds like Leslie will be Tobacco Road bound by what I've read on here, but we have a chance.
