Sommy, Antwan, JVP, Smith (once he adds a few pounds), Baird and Gielo (assuming he signs and gets cleared) is a good frontline rotation

I agree, I would be surprised if he stayed at this point.

April 13th can't come soon enough!

Believing LU Basketball is on the verge of something great since 1991. The Cubs won a World Series so why not LU to the Sweet Sixteen?!

Correct that Nike World Summit not Jordan Brand Classic, got the games mixed up.

so far two of his teammates got selected in Mateusz Ponitka and Przemyslaw Karnowski.

so far the roster looks like this..

Przemyslaw Karnowski C (Poland)
Mateusz Ponitka G (Poland)
Evan Fournier G/F(France)
Raul Neto G (Brazil)
Lucas Nogueira C (Brazil)
Kevin Pangos G (Canada)
Kyle Wiltjer F (Canada)
Dario Saric F(Croatia)
Davis Bertans G/F (Lativa)

that's 9 players, 4 more will probably get selected. Don't know if he will since two of his teammates got selected.

Give it time manson...just because their letter isnt on Coach Layer's desk the first day of the signing period (bolded for emphasis), doesnt mean they arent going to.

The fact that no formal announcement has been made yet on Speaks makes me think they are holding off to do it all at once. I feel sure we will be signing one more recruit. I'm hoping it will be Gielo.

Then as I'm typing this, they post the Speaks signing on the AD site.

I hope they sign him. He just dropped 32 and 23 for Poland.

Europeanprospects just has Liberty as his college and it was updated a couple of days ago. Maybe the fact his team/country is in a major tourney and him being across the country is the delay.

I think Lang or Sly would probably have to answer this.

europeanprospects (european recruiting/scouting site) still says Liberty and that's the only site, i've found that says it.

see if he heard anything

I wouldn't know anything until he actually signs a LOI.

Our coaching staff can't say anything about a prospect until they sign, so the only sources on this would be in Poland.

I know coaches can't comment on prospects specifically (as in saying their name) until LOI is in but can't they refer to them as "they" or some substitute name when asked? or is that now a recruiting violation?

as for the source the twitter i posted is the one who broke it. I'll try and see if he can give an update.

My speculation is that coaches dont mention them in any sort of way because even hinting at a recruit could be considered tampering with recruiting by the NCAA. I think our fair scribe could give a clearer explanation about it though.

The European Prospects guy just told me on Twitter that Gielo is going to play here. We are going to be a huge team this year! Something that will get you well past the Big South!

No, they can't talk about them on the record at all.

Now, sometimes, a coach will lead you wink, wink, nod, nod in a direction of where to find a kid that's going to commit, but that's all off the record.

Any news of a commit has to come directly from the kid, his high school coach or his family. It can't come directly from anyone in the college program until the LOI is in.

I think this recruiting class has a ton of potential!
