How do you know he hasn't signed? If past history is any indication, we have generally waited to issue just one press release discussing everyone that has signed during that signing period. Maybe he really did sign yesterday and we are just waiting to see if anyone else signs (or transfers in) before preparing that public statement.

You said that you were concerned, then gave no explanation as to why. You really seem to be preoccupied with Epperson coming here in some form or another. Worried about his development, his weight, whether or not he'll get beat out for minutes by an inexperienced walkon. Now he's a flight risk because he presumably didn't sign the first day he could?

No one should be worried about Epperson. He's a Bluejay.
