(2024) PF - Derik Queen to Maryland

[rcbowla 6,796]

This whole thing is hurting my head. How in the world did people take a gif of a 1980's DQ commercial as "very good news" for IU? Seriously, does anyone have the mental capacity to sort that out for me?

I know DQ's HQ are in Bloomington, MN. Is that all that people are going off of?

We can always revert back to Marc Cuban follows. Who doesn’t like DairyQueen

Does that mean he flipped to, flipped away or something else 

He flipped from Maryland to IU for like 20 mins and then took it down.   According to their premium board they got info the coaches had been informed of decision so he changed it to IU later he decided that the info wasn’t concrete so he took it down.    Sounds like Hoops Hall Jan 11-14 is a possible decision date

No clue. I just took to mean that he heard some news related to Derik Queen but didn't see anything IU specific that isn't a major stretch.

FYI: Mookie Dobbins is Queen’s travel ball coach. Queen’s only played for 1 travel program, Team Thrill on the UAA circuit. Also the travel program for Daquan Davis and Chance Mallory. So if that’s true, it’s definitely not nothin’.

People are jumping to conclusions a bit but based on the timeline and recent events, I think there are reasons for optimism. If I were a Maryland fan and Queen sets a commitment date relatively soon, I certainly wouldn't feel very good about my chances.

I remember seeing stuff a few weeks ago saying that if Queen didn’t commit during the early signing period back in November, it would be a mark of death for Maryland. Since their 247 guy said the longer this goes the more likely he goes somewhere else than Maryland I think.

I'd love to add him but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Since Trilly hasn't posted an obligatory cryptic (non)update on Derik Queen today, I will go ahead and post something here. Feel free to speculate wildly on what it means. The crazier, the better.

Things are heating up. You may want to take a seat.

What if the commitment date is for January 11-15? On ESPN. That is what Rabby reported last night. Not definite but that's the guess. Still looks to be IU-Maryland

Behind a paywall but I do like the little bit I can see.

Yes Maryland fans are putting up the white flag. A lot of their posters have heard rumors that Queen has told coaches he's coming to IU but it's just rumors at this point

Not sure I buy that. If you're telling coaches where you're going there's no reason to not set an official announcement date at least.

What if there’s no announcement date?  Just a Tipton edit?
