If you're talking about Tre, he has verballed. So, it's not formalized, but he's planning on coming here. As for Ovie, he hasn't given a verbal to anyone yet.

Yeah, I figured Tre was a still a verbal for us but the part about switching his verbal to St Louis threw me off. And Ovie would be a nice addition to the team!

We were way too busy arguing to discuss the kid's future. When he said Larry Bird would have trouble scoring today I just about lost it...It was all in good fun though.

If everything else remains status quo, the answer to that would be yes.

OK...why in the world was Scar hanging out with a recruit? Come on....to say you didn't discuss the kids "future" when you met with his family and coach? Sounds like a bit of a stretch, big guy! If you can't say, then just say that....but please don't insult what very little intelligence I have!

I can believe it. I've met a lot of football recruits and spent some time talking to them and never once asked if they were going to come here or not. That's not my job. That's not Scar's job.

Yeah normally it starts out "Football Office this is Jon can I help you?"

a) That's not how I answer the phone.

b) I've never talked to a recruit on the phone.

I tend to agree; and if he wants to come here, I'm sure it will be worked out.

1st of all since they were in the coaches office talking to the coaches, I am pretty sure that I was allowed to talk to them. The truth is I just happened to be in the team room and watching the girls basketball game waiting to call the game on Saturday night so that is how I met them. I barely remembered their names to tell the truth and the only reason I talked with them at all is because they were having that crazy conversation and I just had to jump in. It became a generation thing with us old guys arguing with the young guys. It was a lot of fun but not once did I put the press on them. It never crossed my mind. I have been asked to talk to recruits before. I spoke to Avery Warley when she was on her recruiting trip at the request of Kelly Deyo back a couple of years ago. I do have a good closing record though :wink:

Speculating that a current player won't be back next year, for whatever reason, is a touchy subject in my book.

Talking about a kid who is currently here leaving before either they say it publicly or someone on staff says it is taboo to me. You don't do that.

I didn't talk about any kid on here. I just said that we will have a scholly for Ovie. Get off your high horse Jon.

Modest CoolhandLuke wont tell us but he's been heavily involved in Secret NCAA meetings and they are going to grant every team an extra scholly...see, nobody is leaving after all except for curry but everyone knows that
