I'm still hoping we hear something sooner rather than later. Don't listen to duke's bullEdited about being a bigger stage. The big East is the best conference in basketball and georgetown will contend for the Big East title year in and year out. The ACC sucks and is completely overrated. It's a 2 horse race every year. If you schedule us i swear we'll start a home and home with UNC so you can show them what a mistake they made. Listen to your heart. You know you want to come to the hilltop and play with a family. You don't want to got o a crappy city like durham and have to hang out with those losers. I mean come on did you see that midnight madness video? 1) How bad are they at acting? 2) They chose a scene from austin powers as one of their great moments in cinema history?! 3) I mean did you see the titantic scene? You don't want to be a part of those clowns. No one likes duke outside of it's fans. No one caually roots for them. You're either a duke fan or you hate duke. Do you really want to be hated by a majority of the country. Do you really want to be forced to slap the floor and flop instead of playing defense? Oh and kyle singler isn't going pro. He's not a first round pick. He's not an NBA SF. Come to Georgetown and all your friends and family can watch you play. It's an easy decision.

Great to be back. There doesn't seem to be any real evidence pointing at what Roscoe's decision might be, but there do seem to be rumblings that he's made up his mind and will announce fairly soon. We'll just idle here until he does so. I know I'll be crossing my fingers in the meantime.

This is what to expect from Roscoe in blue and gray. Game winner from this summer at the Elite 24 scrimmage.

This is the last play of the game after Roscoe hits the game winner (I think Roscoe's numbers for this game were 22 pts and 7 boards). Roscoe (#35) is playing D on the last play (check out Brandon Jennings just walking around with his backpack before the play starts):
You can scroll through the whole game if you have time. Rakeem is also playing in the game. He's a stud.

Q: Where does UConn stand with roscoe smith? There is alot of talk that he is going to sign with GTown -Chris O, Bristol A: Chris, the rumors are out there that he's leaning toward G-Town. I'm hearing only what he told the media upon visiting for First Night: It's down to UConn, Georgetown and Duke. I'm hearing that UConn has been told it's still right there, in the mix. We'll see.

Interesting - I wonder whether he is just responding to message board noise. Balla may be the only person out there calling it for GU (as on HoyaBalla), but it seemed to get carried on Duke/UCONN boards.

It is only logical that Gtown is the leader now. Think about it. Roscoe calls JTIII (and tells him "something"). Almost right after that Kendrick AND Mitchell commit elsewhere. Roscoe has also said he has basically made up his mind and nothing will change that. JTIII has been to more of his games than any other coach. Roscoe is his prize recruit who he has wanted in this class (and I don't mean that in a bad way for Nate and Markel).
So of course things can change but I think he is Gtown lean right now. If he wants to go play for Coach K instead, that's just a bad choice in my opinion. WISCONSIN!!!

Guru,
I think people are referring to "balla's" post made on his own board 11/27/09 at 3:27 P.M within the Roscoe Smith 2010 thread.

Think about it, if Roscoe called JTIII and that meant something why hasn't he committed yet? It just dosen't make much sense. Why prolong the process if you already called the coach to inform him of something we assume would be his college choice.
Balla completely makes up a lot of his "information." He has made statements about Harrison Barnes, Rakeem Christmas, Jalen Kendrick, and Roscoe Smith. He's been wrong almost everytime. Not to mention the fact that he has switched up his statements whenever he is proven incorrect.
He said Barnes to Duke. He was adamant that we didn't have a shot at Christmas and everone should just forget about it, we are now in his top 5. He's insuated that Smith called JTIII right before Kendrick and Mitchell committed, but several reliable sources have said it never happened.
He has a recent post on his site where he says "Roscoe = Hoya", and then says something about have putting ink on paper. Ohh, unless Duke happens to steal him away.
That statement right there sums up how ridiculous the guy is. He'll say a guy is committing soon and then in the same breath say "unless someone gets him to committ first".
He had called Roscoe to Uconn months ago, and now he has picked both Duke and G-Town depending on the week. For some reason there are a legion of nerds that hang on his every word and sware by his fiction as if he has ever made a major prediction of any consequence.
