Jones no longer wants out of his LOI

I get the impression that Martin doesn't care if Ware goes elsewhere or not bec he likes Richardson who plays the same position. I follow Ware on twitter and well the kid is a Markeith Ambles to say the least- got no clue how he makes the grades. I think Martin hasn't let Jones go yet because he feels he needs him more as a player.

That's just dumb.

Does he want in or out? What's going on? There are two threads saying opposites here.

I think it depends on what Coach Martin wants from the position. Ware is a slasher and plays pretty good defense. He does not have a good shot from 15 feet and beyond. He would play the 2 and Jones would be the 1. I think Jones is ,by far, the better shooter and pg. We need Jones more, but I want both of them. Richardson is a better shooter and rebounder. Coach may know something about Ware's personality that is a concern. We may never know.

I'd take the shooter over the slasher at SG. We've gone through enough slashers that couldn't shoot in the last few seasons

My guess is Richardson will go to Oklahoma. Dunno why the previous staff wasn't trying, but new staff is, and I think they'll get him.

Ware could go anywhere. I still think Tennessee has as good a shot as anyone, but so do Georgia, Louisville, maybe others.

Hell, most of them couldn't slash either. Problem was, our coaching staff was absolutely clueless when it came to recruiting guards.

Why do you think that about Richardson? I think he may sign after his visit this weekend. I think his relationship with CCM seals it.

I think this is inaccurate. We just missed over and over and over on good ones.

Elliot Williams was on campus with Woolridge for a recruiting visit.

We offered Craft before anyone else.

We had Selby and Craft committed.

If you want to knock the staff for never being able to get a great PG to commit and show up on campus, I will agree. They were not clueless though.

I agree that they were no clueless. They simply were not able to sign a good point guard, not that they didn't identify or try.

That could be the case, but if you can take both, you make it happen. There wasn't a whole lot of reason to lose either Ware or Jones, but it happens I guess..

If Ware is looking to play SG L'ville should be off of his list. They have Wayne Blackshear coming in as a hyped up McDonalds AA at the SG spot. To me that would eliminate them. At the end of the day he will pick a school were he can get the best shot at early playing time. Unless he is just and idiot, which could definitely be the case. From the threads I have read, I want no parts of Ware. He seems to be a cry baby.

Obviously, I think for him playing in-state is attractive, I just think CCM has built a very syrong relationship with him. CCM offered him Sunday night before the official hiring announcement. I hope I'm right, no offence.

None taken. I hope you're right, too.

Wasn't Ramar Smith the #1 PG in the whole country when he came to Tennessee? Yes, he did not turn out so well....but landing #1 should equate to good guard play IMO.
