Haven't heard from Wilson for a long time. I honestly thought we had stopped pursuing him. Also, he's listed as a SG in a lot of places, not a PG.

Also noticed Isaiah Moss got offers from both Iowa and Iowa State and Galen Robinson visiting GTown this weekend. Still kinda wish we pursuited Moss harder, especially considering we are looking for that wing. I trust the coaches though.

I trust the coaches as well. They must have seen something they didn't like when he visited.
As for Galen Robinson, it sounds like Georgetown might be slow playing him. It doesn't seem like he has an offer from them.

Not a lot of info, but looks to be a SG/PG combo who is big enough and athletic enough to play D on a lot of different kinds of players. Seems to be moving up the charts with some teams with Iowa State and Dayton apparently in the mix now as well.

He seemed to be trying to get Minnesota's attention, but it didn't come. Some academic concerns as well. Looks to me like a different version of Kyri Thomas, but maybe they think he's more likely to quality. Had a conditional offer from Wisci after camping there, but they may have moved on due to academics and landed someone else.

On taking a harder look, I like this guys. He looks to have slipped between the cracks a bit and reminds me of the athletic, long guys that Wichita plays at guard. He has a solid basis for an offensive game and could develop into a lock down defender.

We also offered him early, so were waiting out his interest in MN and Wiscy.

Yes, we're cool on him but we want to sign him and he will sign with us. Makes sense.

Guess he didn't want to wait around for Georgetown or Seton Hall.
Georgetown has moved on to Galen Robinson, who had a CU offer.

Tyler Williams from Texas is reopening his recruitment. CU showed interest at one time. Another 6'5 wing.

Reopening? Who did he commit to? All I see is that he is gonna make a final decision on Tuesday between SMU, Minnesota, Columbia and Rice......I assumed we stopped recruiting him.
