First off, nobody is disputing he has the right. But I also have the right to hold it against him. Second, you really have to see the context to see how bothersome it is. For example, Trier also has tweeted some critical stuff about Roy too. But Trier tweets a lot and specifically a lot about the NBA playoffs and the Roy critical tweets were in the flow of that and pretty much what people were saying generally. Mann, however, doesn't tweet all that much and tweets almost nothing about the NBA playoffs, yet took the time to tweet these things about Roy. It just came across as personal. Who knows? It's Twitter and things can be easily mis-interpreted, but it came across badly.

He'll have plenty of time to tweet stuff about ex-Hoyas from South Kingstown. Not much else to do up there.

So we are giving up on Mann as a Hoya target?
If true, this would leave our board for wings/guards in 2015 with the following players: Allonzo Trier Dwayne Bacon Ray Smith Josh Reaves PJ Dozier Haanif Cheathem Bryant Crawford
I don't know, it seems like it would have been a good idea to at least maintain a relationship with Mann. It's far from a lock that we get two commitments from the above players. Are there any other guards/wings that we are targeting that I did not list?

That’s a pretty solid list imo and there’s still a long ways to go..

No shot on dozier though it sounds.

No shot on dozier though it sounds. Great list. I hope the Hoyas land not only the best players, but also those who want to play at the Hilltop and fit in with the group.

Sounds like our best shots are: Trier Bacon Reaves don't think we have much of a shot with: Dozier or Crawford Arizona fans seem to think Smith is going to them. don't have a clue about Cheathem.

See, the reason I'm slightly worried is because although the list looks good on the surface, if you look a little closer, we are probably not getting Dozier or Crawford, we are only recently in on Cheathem, and Bacon and Smith are very questionable at best (in terms of our chances at landing one of them). Add in Trier's status as a newly-minted five-star player, and that leaves only Reaves, arguably the lowest-rated player of the group, as the only guy who appears to be a solid Georgetown lean right now.
I'm sure this will work out one way or the other, but it's definitely a situation to keep an eye on.

We could still get Crawford, and if we strike out we have cheatham.

I convinced they will give out 6 schollies if they get 3 more players to want to come here but I think a class of 5 is what we will end up with. If 1 is Reaves I just think if we can get Trier this class will be an all timer.

I've never heard of this kid until I read the entire thread today and the sole thought I came away with was that I felt really old trying to wrap my head around the idea that Daynia LaForce has a 17 year old son.
Does Candace Staier have kids we can recruit? How about Colleen Hanrahan?

I'm sure he's not surprised when people react. Besides, I like reading it. I like even more reading when people do respond!

Any news on Mann? Are the Hoyas on him at all anymore?

B&G, without disparaging the kid, I got the feeling from a few earlier posts that the staff's discontinuation of his recruitment wasn't solely based on their feelings about his skill level/playing ability (ie maybe personality clash). Is that the case?
