Starts today. Any word on when we might see some letters from our two recruits?

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?!

I'd expect rather quickly. Both seemed anxious to get it done.

It's odd they'd be waiting to get their letters in though.

This was just tweeted. I'm not sure who he is specifically referencing, but announcement should be coming.

Well, I only saw two newspaper articles about girls signing (one softball, one volleyball)... so I'm not sure that's the whole picture.

It was my privilege to serve you today. If you have any feedback, please direct it to my Assistant Director....

LibertyFlames.com has an article up with three volleyball players that have already signed.

Stephen is signing Sunday and there is nothing to fret. Not sure what the deal is with John Caleb.

One is happening either this weekend or on Monday b/c the person may or may not have been watching LU play tonight. Another is throwing a signing party and doing it then.

So in other words, John Caleb is doing his in a few days because he was at the Mason game watching his older brother play and Stephen is throwing a signing party this weekend.

Think the plan is to do it on campus on Monday....or doing it with the coach's....either or

Signing live and for real at a signing party many days into the period is dumb. Just sign on first day, and do a fake signing for your friends. Help the coaches out by getting it done faster...

Both are homeschoolers so signing with friends isn't as easy as calling the media to meet up with your coach and family in the school cafeteria. These types of deals usually require some scheduling challenges.

Stephen is definitely indicating that he's signing this Sunday. He didn't say but I am guessing it could be at church.

As long as it gets done within the signing period, I don't think our coaches give a rat's patooti when it is. Stephen and JC are already Flames. It's just logistics.

Agreed and you get the award for first to use "patooti" on FF.

SB's is in!

CS will be done tomorrow as expected

I have no reason to lie to you guys! I told you to relax! SB wanted this place bad every since he left campus....seems like just a month ago everyone laughed at the idea of him even considering us.

So are these both done now? How 'bout a little story on the website fellas. These are two recruits to celebrate!

Tomorrow is the final day of the early signing period. Maybe we will get some official word on our Verbal Commits.
