    I said it early this week, and I'll say it again- this guy is notorious for having bizarre recruitments. Nobody is going to know anything about where he's going until the pen hits the paper. That's why I never bought the "Kasongo is a done deal" stuff. Not questioning anyone's sources on this because I'm sure he led our coaches to believe he would commit, but I'm just not buying anything on this kid until he actually pulls the trigger.

    This is how it's going to be with recruits that actually have options. They will take visits. Hopefully we move from competing with Tennessee to worrying about visits to Duke, Kansas, etc. Even Tennessee is a good program so we should get used to these types of things.

    Well, sounds like he's the only other target we have so if he comes we make a roster move to have room, if he doesn't I guess we go with what we currently have plus just adding Malik.

    We're also adding another 4* guard in Weatherspoon. He seems to always be the forgotten man in this class but the kid can play.

    Kasongo is different that any other type of player we currently have on the roster. He's very quick off the floor so yeah he's contribution would be at the defensive end mostly. I'd guess 6-8 a game + 6 boards and 2 blk as averages. If we get him we become a much, much better defensive team automatically.

    I was including guys that have already signed like Weatherspoon and Strugg. Only player not "official" yet is Malik. Malik replacing Tookie fills us up already, we only need to create a roster spot for 2015 if Kasongo signs.

    Can't imagine Adidas would help land a recruit for a school that is about to part ways with them.

    Agreed, he's a top 100 recruit nationally.

    When you see ** after a post it's to let you know it's a joke or sarcasm
