As of 8:30 Tuesday, there is an AP announcement on a press conference, but no coverage on GUHoyas.com. But it's up at HoyaSaxa.com.
Now back to the thread. Mrsixer starts it off:--Admin
Thank you jeff and roy for the great memories. U will be missed

Sixer,
Do you know the content of the press conference or are you just assuming that since there is a press conference, they will both declare. If the second, wouldn't it be possible that they could announce either way?

Seriously, Sixer, you know better than this. If a link isn't possible, at least give us more than just "press conference tomorrow."

why do we assume this is about Jeff and Roy?
Has anyone ever held a press conference to announce they are STAYING in the draft.To declare for the draft, yes, but to stay in, isnt that strange.

If the second, wouldn't it be possible that they could announce either way? I have never heard of holding a press conference to announce a player returning, but i guess it is possible. Either way, the wait is over my friends

Either way, the wait is over my friends I'm pretty sure it happens all the time actually. I know Arron Afflalo had one last year to announce he was returning

It doesnt even make since to announce you are staying in the draft though, especially when everyone already expects you to. Its not like Durant and Oden held a press conference when they signed with agents.
Sixer, do you know what this conference is about, or are you just assuming its about Jeff and Roy, because thats a pretty big assumption. Secondly do you know where its being held? Lastly, how do you know there is even a press conference?

you got a text saying there was a press conference but it didn't say what the press conference was in regards to or are you just holding out on us.

Couldn't it be a press conference to officially announce the new assistants?

it's to announce that I am returning for my junior year and will once again to be counted on to pay 90 dollars for student tickets. I just wanted to test the young alumni waters

1. I think the most likely press conference would be to announce the assistant coaches. the second most likely would be a contract extension for III. the third would be to announce some change in status or roy and jeff. either that they're withdrawling or have hired agents. It wouldn't really make sense to have scheduled a press conference about Jeff or Roy before the lottery selection.

Pretty quick analysis of the draft order will be required for Jeff & Roy to be sure they are going or staying seeing that it won't be determined until tonight. Their option to return to school is a negoitiating chip I doubt David Falk would allow them to give up so quickly. If there is a press conference tomorrow, it's most likely about III (the big story) or the assistants.

If there is a press conference in any way related to the basketball program, I'm impressed. Usually, getting any info is like pulling teeth.

Probably tops hifi for sheer stupidity.

There is an official press conference at 1 p.m. on campus with the stated agenda an announcement by Jeff and Roy. That is fact...anything else is speculation.

can we get a source. and at this point it seems like bad news if it is about jeff and roy. I'm really surprised that they would make a decision at this point. They're either withdrawing or hiring an agent. Very worried now.
