I think the bottom 3 have a better shot then the top 3 i agree...i still like our chances here as well...especially RyanM is hesitate on following the footsteps of his dad. Hopefully the staff continues to push...theyve shown the effort that they want him. Yea I would put uva and fla st as the two top contenders

Considering FSU's commitment of a center, the fact he hasn't committed to Virginia by now and Ryan M's hesitancy...plus i don't see how he chooses ohio st or michigan over gtown...does anyone else feel kinda optimistic we can pull this off and land Reid.

I dont know why I feel optimistic for him or Holmgren. What caught my eye was a report from a select camp/team where he was sinking threes. Obviously he can play inside, but I would love for us to have that flexibility. Hopeful,but not if we continue to go small. Perplexing.

The kid FSU just got thinks he’s a 7 foot guard so I think they will still recruit Reid

A center is one of their most pressing of needs, which is why Efton Reid is atop their list. Reid hasn’t done a whole lot with his recruitment after deciding to remain in the 2021 class, but Pitt is one of the few teams to watch with the 7-footer. Michigan and Ohio Stare are two of Pitt’s greater competitors for his commitment, and while there is no timetable for his decision, the Panthers should be in it until the very end. basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/wednesday-s-mailbag-kentucky-pitt-indiana-duke-seton-hall

I spoke with Efton Reid last week, and he doesn’t appear to be in much of a rush with his commitment. Rather, he is spending his last few days at home in Richnond, Va., around his friends and trying to get a few fish to bite before he leaves for IMG Academy. That just shows the attention that Reid has given toward his recruitment after deciding to remain in the 2021 class and take a prep year at the Florida-based institution. He wants to cut his school list down in the coming weeks before committing, though he is cognizant of the fact that he might never have the chance to actually visit campuses if he plans on signing in the fall. Luckily, he has already visited Louisville, Maryland, NC State, North Carolina, Ohio State, Pitt, Virginia and Virginia Tech. Michigan is the only school that is heavily involved in his recruitment that he hasn't visited. Maybe Kentucky makes a late run at Reid or UNC shows greater interest, but I don’t give anyone outside of Michigan, OSU, Pitt and maybe Virginia much of a chance. All four have a great need at the center position and all four have intrigued Reid to some extent. basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/wednesday-s-mailbag-season-outlook-michigan-unc

As an update in this saga from a friend at FSU, Efton's mom said that they would announce at like noon today but didn't (second time bailing on a decision time that was set by them) and he just put out "patience" (or something like that), and at this point "honestly would not want to touch this guy with a ten foot pole as too much drama" - person who gave me the rundown

Sadly, there is a great deal of insanity going around in this country at the moment in all sorts of areas. This included, but it's a very small piece.

This is a shame. Efton seems like a great kid, hate to see him headed to a dirty program like that.

I’m not tied in but people ik who weren’t even rooting for their own school here say this just smelled wrong once he pushed back the date of his commitment (the first time) right after “all of a sudden” LSU entered the fray when OSU and FSU were chasing for ages and both were very good this year in seeding (osu lol). Hopefully it is not what it seems as Efton seems like a good kid but I wouldn’t be shocked at all because it’s LSU

Did he get a “strong &$%” offer. How does the LSU coach still have a job.
