They both did just Deloach was setup and had to cancel, Knecht couldn’t visit this weekend because of it 

Ah gotcha! I must've missed that. Thank you

Garwey Dual re-commits to Providence.

[JSHoosier 20,266]

I'm skeptical, to say the least, but if we somehow landed Ledlum and Knecht I'd consider this portal a homerun.  I wouldn't much care what they did with the last scholarship after that.

[cthomas 6,486]

Do portal guys commit and then decommit later pending a better offer? Just wondering when it is definite.

If your question is directed about Garwey Dual he originally verbally committed to Providence but never signed.  After Cooley left for the Georgetown job he re-opened his recruitment but will stick with Providence and new head coach Kim English.

Fixed that for you.

Last scholarship could be a suicide squeeze. lol

Ah ha, that is why Ledlum is keeping the UT visit. He's going there to recruit Knecht to IU! ;)

I was really thinking more about Ware. If another school loses someone late, could they flip Ware with a better offer?

To Tennessee?  Wink wink!!!!

I've read on another board that Dickinson may return to Michigan. Not sure if that's old news though.

I'd still like to see a CG with the last scholarship but wouldn't be so concerned if he came from a small school and/or didn't have great numbers. Someone that would be willing to come off the bench.

[Home Jersey 7,671]

Not to start drama (not sure if this has already become a debated saga on the board) but...

With Ledlum and Knecht both visiting UT, and UT's scholly situation, the odds they get/take both seems kind of improbable? 

I'd take a 50/50 split in this situation, but I'd rather have both.

Maybe hold on to it in case a good freshman becomes available late, ala Reneau.  I don't see DeLoach coming to play backup minutes.

Don't know the answer to your question.  Since Ware has signed with IU, the first thing that would have to happen is we release him from his Letter of Intent.  We could be pricks and refuse but we know that wouldn't happen.  To me the question  would be if having signed with IU did he lose his immediate eligibility to go play for someone else without a specific NCAA waiver.

Might depend on if he’s officially enrolled yet. There’s so much to all this. Saw some team hired a GM to handle this. I think we need to do something similar

Maybe Knecht would rather play here ( oh my that court is hideous, I get what they were going for but looks like water damage or something)

Instead of here

 

 

Edit: okay, or won't remove the duplicate picture of Oregon's court.

Ya'll pic on that court, I get it. I think it would be a HUGE distraction playing on it. BUT, they were going for the OMG WOW marketing factor to young look at me players and fans. For that it's a huge smashing hit.

ALSO but, we all know that sometimes just because she's a 10, doesn't mean it's anything other than a totally terrible idea.... (for a second tender hook up).
