[Brass Cannon]

Makes sense.  Sunday certainly feels like an odd day to announce

There was some stuff out there from Va Tech fans after his visit about how badly they wanted Clowney in comparison to his other finalists.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I submit the replies to this tweet into evidence and IU rests it’s case.

Any particular reason?

Probably realized Halloween isn't the best day to announce his decision not to mention it's a Sunday that will be full of NFL news. Mondays are much better to get peoples attention.

I don't have any inside info, but I gotta believe it's between us and AL. And hopefully, we offer a much broader experience with the campus, education choices and quality, and BBall. I have a tough time putting Oats on the same level with Woody, especially for those trying to get to the NBA.

Girl quality is probably a wash between the 2 schools. AL is closer to home, but he previously stated that wasn't a big deal. It's still 6 hours from SC to U of AL. And you have to go thru Atlanta, which could add another 2-3 hours.

There's only 2...right?

Not announcing until 11/4, per Tipton. Thought if he announced for Bama early enough it would impact Clowney taking his visit. Oh well.

Walker has been Bama's focus and they will likely know where things stand by the time 11/1 rolls around. It will be a factor.

So I take that as Alabama is a serious contender.

I don't because Walker is going to Bama. Bama's 247 board doesn't even talk about Clowney. They are focused on Walker and Brandon Miller who they think is going with Walker to Bama.

To me it is us or VT for Clowney and I think he will be wearing the candy stripes.

You’ve gotta think this means we’re making a final push or are trying to convince him to change his mind. One would think his mind is already made up with his commitment just over a week away.

There’s no trying to change his mind. VT was in earlier this week so IU went to see him today. Even if you feel very good about a recruitment you still go and visit

Most pkg deal talk is just that. But Bradley and Walker appear to be the genuine article.
