Sadly this thread can get locked. I thought we had a fighting chance over the summer but this is a waste of time at this point.

I don’t think a 5-star center is coming to sit behind Sorber. It would be nice though. 😋

To me it makes perfect sense. Queen would get better by going up against Sorber in practice every day. Mourning and Mutombo made each other better. Sometimes kids want to be the star from day one and let ego get in the way.

"Few prospects have evolved as much as Queen over the last 18 months or so, as the five-star center has reshaped, leaned out and become more explosive than ever. He played with a new brand of confidence over the weekend and seems to be asserting himself like never before despite playing on a Monteverde team stocked with as much elite talent as any high school squad in recent memory. Queen controlled the paint during both Saturday games, creating extra possessions, sticking back second-chance points and showing levels of both athleticism and confidence he lacked a year ago at this time. It was nice to see him consistently assert himself and become a focal point on a roster that could make it easy to take possessions off and blend into the periphery. RECRUITMENT: Queen’s recruitment is a Maryland-versus-Indiana affair, as no other school feels like a legitimate threat to land the five-star center. It’s difficult to discern which way he’s leaning, however, as both programs feel good about where they stand." basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/cassidy-awards-hoop-exchange-fall-festival

"Officially the Derik Queen sweepstakes remain open to Houston, Maryland and Indiana. Sources around Queen either do not know or decline to say which direction the five-star big man is leaning. What his camp will say publicly, however, is that the decision will be made sometime before Nov. 15, when this year’s Early Signing Period window is set to close. I was told on Monday that Queen will sign with the school of his choice during the early period. The decision obviously isn’t likely to come before he takes his final visit, an Oct. 22 visit to Maryland. This provides a roughly three-week window for a decision announcement. Maryland has been seen as the leader for some time now, but nothing seems set in stone as the Montverde Academy senior chugs toward decision day. Indiana could be the biggest threat to snatch Queen’s pledge away from the home-state Terrapins, but Houston shouldn’t be discarded as a threat after last weekend’s official visit." basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/recruiting-rumor-mill-latest-on-harper-fland-queen-more

Queen did not sign today as originally expected. I'd say MD is in trouble after being considered the leader for a long time.

The next time hoyaboya complains that we haven't signed enough 2024 DMV recruits (only Caleb and Drew!) because Thomas Sorber is from Philadelphia and Queen and Ngongba are DMV let's remember how absolutely ridiculous that bad faith criticism is. Queen isn't deciding anytime soon, Ngongba went to Duke, and Sorber is signed, sealed, and delivered.

Was so happy when Cooley got his commitment so early.
