Nate Lubick NBE Basketball.com Discussion

[kchoya]

I know this is being discussed over on the recruiting board, but it's pretty big news, so I think it should be over on the main board as well, at least for a while:

If this is true, we're officially in trouble...

Links only, please.--Admin

[kghoya]

it would be a nightmare.

[HoyasAreHungry]

waiting to be confirmed by someone before freaking out....

can't wait for the board meltdown/questioning the system/program/etc though...

This seems to come at the same time as the departure of one of our assistant coaches.... coincidence? Or is it possible that Burke recruited Lubick?

[EasyEd]

This seems to come at the same time as the resignation of Sarah Palin.... coincidence?

I think this is big enough news that it belongs back on the main basketball board. Hopefully it's not true.

That's why I started the threads. Too bad the admins are trying to set a records for how many threads they can lock (and/or move) on the first page of the main board. I'd like to her why they thought this shouldn't be on the main board.

Nothing's been locked--it's a recruiting item and belongs on the recruiting page. People have indicated they do not want recruiting cluttering the main page and vice versa, so the note on the front page clearly says it was moved.--Admin

Both Riley and him are high school kids, they don't know what they really want. Most kids don't know what they want as juniors in high school. That's why we should recruit spares.This program will always have transfers that don't work out, there will always be enough scholies to go around.

Wattad hosted Lubick on Nates unofficial visit here, not that that makes a difference, but I know the two were pretty close after the trip.

Yes, good point. Sarah Palin quit on Alaska just as Lubick may have quit on Georgetown.

Not sure what's going on but Evan Daniels from Scout just quoted Nate as saying, "That isn't true.", when asked about re-opening his recruitment.

THANK GOD.

[tonydeals]

Thanks for posting the tweet Dan!

[gtowndynasty]

Great news...being the hypocrite I am, I would like to take this opportunity and recant all negative things I said about Nate in the last 4 hours. Thanks!!!

[Boz]

Should we take this moment to mention that Jeff Borzello is a UConn fan?

[tpk3]

All I know is that it is time to lock this thread.

BY JEFF BORZELLO

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Georgetown commit Nate Lubick is not going to end up a Hoya after all. Or will he?

According to a source with knowledge of the situation, Lubick is going to decommit from Georgetown and will look elsewhere.

“He is re-opening his recruitment,” the source said.

However, a source close to the Playaz AAU program indicated late Thursday night that Lubick IS still committed to the Hoyas.

...

Stay locked to the NBE Basketball Report for more on this possible Lubick story as we expect to see Lubick and the NE Playaz tomorrow at the BasketbBull First Eight event at the Mass Mutual center in Springfield (MA) and will look to see if he could set the record straight himself on the status of his commitment with the Hoyas.

Reads a lot like the original source was wrong...
