Does it look like we'll be getting an official visit at this point, B&G?

Any change in our momentum (good or bad) with Rabb? He was quoted recently as saying that Cal and Kentucky would likely be on his list till the end, didn't see any mention of GTown. But I'm doing my best not to infer anything negative regarding our chances, based on earlier posts here by B&G.

Just listed GTown in his final 7 along with Wake Forest, Marquette, Tennessee, Memphis, SMU and Indiana.

With Donovan Mitchell to Louisville... does this mean Villanova comes back hard after Crawford?

The recruiting intelligentsia are all predicting that Williams goes to UNC. If you had to guess, does he actually have a "commit-able" offer now? If a kid is that heavy a lean, and was waiting for a specific offer, does it stand to reason that he would wait to commit once he receives that offer?
Just curious as to how this typically plays out when a kid finally gets an offer that most seem to think he was waiting for - especially now with the evaluation period over and the musical chairs really getting going.

Jarred Reuter to Virginia. Does this take them out of the running for Noah?

Think it's just a stopover en route to Dubai with the US Team.

His anti-Hibbert tweets showed up after we had reportedly stopped recruiting him. I'll just infer from your note that the staff had identified a fit issue before that 'incident'.

Anyone?? Haven't read anywhere that his quality of play has dropped off - just wonder why we dropped this kid like a hot potato, especially with the family connection of his mother being an alum of the women's hoops team.

The kid was born while I was a sophomore and we're calling HIM old... I feel older than dirt myself now!

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?

Except that Dickerson committed before Govan. There really didn't seem to be any imminent pressure to commit.

Govan's coach mentioned that his commitment was in part motivated by Noah's commitment at the time (given the potential scholarship crunch).
Hate to ask... but does anyone see any impact from Noah turning his back on us on any of our other recruits?

Wherever he winds up committing... our staff shouldn't hesitate for one second to contact each and every one of their recruits.

What on earth??? B&G, any color commentary on what's behind this?
Guess it's too bad he played so well at NBPA a few weeks back. Wonder whether it got Duke to come calling.

Out of curiosity B&G, can you share any color on whether this is a case where the kid decided he wasn't interested anymore or it was more or less decided for him?

Thanks B&G. Disappointing news.
Dislike for Arizona is growing by the day between their pursuit of Smith, Trier and Rabb.

Saw it written on CasualHoya that he's likely to decide soon and that it won't be GTown. Is that a rumor anyone has seen elsewhere? His twitter feed is nonstop Arizona retweets, for whatever that's worth, as well as mentions of an offer from UConn, who seem to have come very late to the party.

"Cuse was surprised". Love that, but also wonder whether that can be translated as "still recruiting him".
To the recruiting gurus - what's standard etiquette from rival schools once a kid has verbally committed?

True, but what does it buy you to ridicule someone so closely and publicly linked to a coach that has offered you a scholarship?
