Rawane Ndiaye Reportedly commits

Joseph Uchebo is a 6'11 JUCO from Chipola College. He averaged 13 points and 13 rebounds per game. He had 19 rebounds in the Jordan classic in high school. He is unsigned and visiting Pitt this weekend. That is the kind of player Martin should be going after.

I agree...the issue is that's a type of player who's been recruited for awhile, just popping up doesn't usually work well. Pitt has been after him for awhile, he loves pitt and has former teammates there, would be surprised if he didn't end up there.

I guess its safe to say that the only recruit left to pay attention to is Wiggins and hope he doesn't go to UK
 
From Josh Ward:

Josh Ward ‏@Josh_Ward 13h
Bobby Maze told @sports180 that Scotty Hopson has said he wishes he had returned to Tennessee for his senior year.


I'm surprised he was man enough to admit it. I thought all along that Hopson was foolish to declare early. I think Stokes would be too, but he may think the talent pool isn't as deep this year vs. next year.
 
2nd out of 12, 5 out of 14....that's not mediocre, but ok.

Dude is sub par bro. Think he isn't is your problem. Not mine. He will do good next year by talent alone. Bet he still finds a way to dick over said talent. 4-8 first 12. Beast out towards the end. Ssdd. He coached so great. Lets watch the selection show. No Tennessee??? Why I never. We got screwed man. No. We played like **** all year. CCM is the mike Dubose of Cbb

I'll just assume this is a drunk 2am post

Is he interested in us?

Wasn't that deep when Scotty declared as well though
 
Landrys dad seems to think his son is coming.....of course I realize it is his dad

Article in the paper today said that Landry can be given a "full release" from his LOI, but only at the request of the student. Landry signed his LOI in the fall. Looks like if Landry wants to come to UT, then it's his choice now. Not CCM.
 
I will be interested to see how this unfolds. I wouldn't be surprised to see Reese get cut loose before it's all said and done.

That's been the case since November

For the sake of more complete facts, that 2012 2nd-place finish was a 4th-place finish as much as it was 2nd place, just as this year's 5th-place finish was a tie for 5th/6th.
2nd in 2012 was good. But, we went 10-6, tied with two other teams, and missed the NCAAT. It's not like we cruised to 12-4 or better.

Based on the last two years, I expect our team to be playing really well in mid-February. But, we better lock up that NCAAT bid before we get to the SECT.

Yes, it is his choice. However, when players are told they have no chance of playing if they come, their choice is often to request a release and seek another school.:)

Hopson got bad info and listened to the wrong people. Anyone with half a brain knew he was a longshot to get drafted. Stokes would be better served to come back, but he may have people in his ear telling him that the talent pool would be deeper next year than this year and he won't improve his chances much by staying. I thought all along he wanted to be just a 1-2 year college player.

The tie breakers negate the argument that they were 4th or 6th. They beat who they had to in order to get their place. And when you finish 2nd after being predicted to finish 11th or so, you've done a good job. No way around it.
