Seems like its down to 3 schools. The Hoyas, Wake and SMU. Tennessee and NC State seem to be off the board now. Looks like it will come down to Wake and the Hoyas. Smh.. Wake & SMU? Maybe the kid should go somewhere else, it's obvious that G'town isn't very appealing to him.. In fairness to him though, he's always given this vibe..

Wake Forest has a new coach in a very challenging conference guaranteed to get tremendous exposure. The school is excellent academically. SMU is also good academically and has a coaching legend. I like what I have seen of this kid, but would rather have him take his time and be certain than commit and change it later.

Maybe he's hesitant b/c he doesn't like getting his name left off GU recruiting highlights (cbssports.com)... But seriously... he's coming.

Crawford is taking his time to make an informed decision and in my mind is showing a lot of maturity.

I could see where he would think quite seriously about those two other schools. Wake has been extremely down the past 3-4 years, and has put a fair share of point guards in the league, actually. (Of course Danny Manning is new there.) But he could see himself as their prime recruit, and play in a great league. Don't know much about SMU, but I do know Larry Brown is one of the all time greats. So...keeping my fingers crossed on this one.

If Georgetown wasn't appealing to Crawford, I don't think he would have bothered to take the time to visit. In our eyes, Georgetown is the clear best choice among Georgetown, SMU, and Wake Forest, but that's our perspective and not the perspective of a 17 year old.
These kids go through a long recruiting process that is probably very exciting, confusing, stressful, and frustrating all at the same time, AND on top of that they are just kids. Do I think Georgetown is clearly the best choice of those 3? Yes, but I can also see arguments to be made in favor of the other two schools, even if ultimately I wouldn't make that choice myself.

Good news. NC State scared me to be honest. If it's down to 2 or 3, you would think the decision would be coming soon.

Crawford is taking his time to make an informed decision and in my mind is showing a lot of maturity. What'd I say that was so wrong B&G? It's not any secret that the kid hasn't been high on G'town but most figured it was because he would have more coveted offers.. Now that those schools have moved on, he still seems hesitant.. It's disappointing to me since I've been very high on him for awhile but I'm not mad about it, it is what it is.. At the end of it all, I hope 94 is right and he does pick the staff cause I think he'd be a good addition to the program..

Just don't want to break any rules by supplying info from other sites that charge fees to their readers. The gist of it is that the visit went very well. No decision has been made but perhaps one will be coming soon. Maybe.

For reference, paraphrasing/summarizing other copywritten or pay sites is fine. Posting a couple of sentences or one paragraph is also OK (preferably with a link to the source). What's not OK is lifting an entire piece and dropping it here.
