Honkyman Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Why would anyone care about Watford canceling his scheduled announcement date because it won't be televised? All but a handful of these players want their school announcements to be on a big stage. It reflects not one bit on what kind of person or player Watford or anyone else who wants a big audience for their college announcement. Not a good look? Gives you pause? If that bothers you, maybe you should follow a different sport? ElectricBoogaloo and Aeggie 2 Quote

New announcement date will be coming soon. 1,338 9:00 AM - Apr 15, 2019 It's so he can visit Indiana, and that wouldn't be able to take place prior to the Jordan game.

But just because this is the reason given doesn't even mean it's actually why he's postponing. It wouldn't surprise me if he just needs more time to think through his decision. LSU's coaching situation was in flux, and, while Wade is back for now, he probably wants to get a better idea of what's going on. Alabama just hired a new coach who he doesn't know. If he's undecided, which would make sense, then it's totally fine to take some more time Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 If it came down to Lewis vs Watford it's a no-brainer for me - - Lewis. Has actual college level experience especially in recruiting. Trendon just isn't that important to me because he'll likely be a OAD at least I'm sure that's his expectation. Kepner, woodenshoemanHoosierfan, cchuntsman and 2 others 5 Quote

I don’t think Trendon is a OAD. He is in The mold of a multi year 5*. Of course he could blow up next year and the NBA could come calling. Edit: I agree about Lewis actually. Christian doesn’t have the coaching experience that Lewis has. Maybe offer Christian the first job after Trendon leaves. Quote
