So anyone have info for how the coaches travel?
PE has been everywhere recently.
After the BE Tourney... He was in Richmond to see Mac, THen it looked like he hit Ft. Wayne Indiana for Gaffney, then Baton Rouge, Lousiana the same day for Leblanc. He saw Fink in NJ
UConn releases their PG and PE is the first to visit in Los Angeles?!!!!
Is he flying commercial? Do we just know more because he carries a higher profile. Did JT3 travel this much.. this aggressively? I don’t recall see signs that he did.
I like it..no complaints. Just wondering.

FWIW, a source associated with the Athletic Department who has provided reliable information to me in that past, advised that when Ewing was negotiating his contract, he wanted the use of a private jet. It is my understanding that this was not agreed to.

It is my understanding that this was not agreed to. Thanks....it is theoretically possible that PE has the means to fund it himself if it matters to him. That was also my thought -- NetJets or similar service.

JT3 & his staff were out & about in this same manner, I don't get the "aggressively" thought either.. If we're going by what you've stated above, he's seen 3 potential prospects and supported 2 signed players in close to 3 weeks..

@jwp He also visited Wendell Mitchell in Tyler Texas... Would guess he visited Carter while he was there because it's only 2 hours from Denton.

And much of what I posted was done within 48 hours of exiting from the BE tournament. I didn’t give a full accounting of his calendar and all the recruiting trips. I have no axe to grind with JT3. If he travelled just as much, then great. It was not possible for me to tell. You weren’t the least bit surprised that PE was in the home of Akinjo in California the day he got his release...apparently the 1st coach there? Or that he watched games in Ft. Wayne, Indiana and Baton Rouge on the same day?

It's an impossible question to answer, and I don't think it's helpful to compare the two.

@jwp He also visited Wendell Mitchell in Plano Texas... Would guess he visited Carter while he was there because it's only 2 hours from Denton. More like a half hour.
