BBall Recruiting Thread 2k19 - Charles Coleman de-commits to Wake. :(

I think that NC State is tiers above Wake Forest right now. Competent coaching and leadership does that.
 
Who would have thought that a Calipari player's course transcript would have problems? Don't $100 handshakes count as finance courses? Isn't tweeting considered a 12 credit creative writing class?

Your wrong on that. Gotta be at least a grand to count as a financecourse . And tweeting is considered a computer literacy course. Get it right!!!!!!;)
 
BBall Recruiting Thread 2k19 - Grad Transfers Ikenna Smart and Torry Johnson to Wake!

This.
 
There are a bunch of handshakes. That makes it also count as marketing and interpersonal communications classes.

OK Much better. Gotta get all that stuff assigned in its proper place on the transcript!!!!!
 
Updated 2019 24/7 rankings should be out sometime today.

Will be interesting to see if any of these newer Manning targets/offers show up...
 
There are a number of names we were in the conversation for at some point, but I haven't heard much about most of them in awhile. Anyone know where we stand with guys like Omar Payne (#49), Tyrese Samuel (#84), and Ismael Massoud (#86)?

Josh Nickelberry and Anthony Harris have mentioned us fairly recently it seems. Not sure if we are really in contention for either though.

Wendell Moore in at #18
 
Yeah, no idea where we stand with anyone.

Some big moves higher for players we've offered:
Patrick Williams 63 (up 45 spots)
Tyrese Samuel 84 (up 39)
Tre Mitchell 107 (up 31)
Jalen Gaffney 127 (up 21)
Deuce Dean 158 (up 65)

Others didn't move too much:
Wendell Moore 18 (up 8)
Omar Payne 49 (down 5)
Josh Nickelberry 60 (up 2)
Anthony Harris 73 (up 1)
Jason Jitobah 188 (up 3)

Juwan Gary slipped 20 spots down to 72

Issa Muhammed isn't ranked in the Top 247
 
Yeah, no idea where we stand with anyone.

You mean he dropped before he committed to Wake? Heaven help his rankings if he actually does so.
 
Has he been rumored to be a silent verbal?
 
I think we are better than State right now. 2019 not withstanding since we don’t know how that will end up, I’ll take our team over theirs easily. Obviously SKJ would have helped in 2019. I have no idea about his transcript so I won’t speculate. Would have liked to have him. But I’ll take our talent base as it stands.

 
Keatts is a coach that will eventually get caught with his pants down. It's almost set in stone. I mean, I wish we had a program lead with some charisma, and Keatts has that, but I am also mildly content that we have a coach who almost assuredly won't embarrass the school ... off the court. In this current climate, NC State, who is already under investigation by the FBI for recruitment issues prior to Keatts is wearing a bad suit in an ex-Louisville assistant.

It's like Donald Trump hired Jenna Jamison as his press secretary and feigns ignorance and claims she has left that business behind. Possible? Absolutely. But almost always recruiting violations involve boosters and I have a difficult time seeing Keatts standing in front of a bunch of prominent boosters and declaring that he is going to do things the right way 100% - starting with a bunch of transcript waivers and juco transfers.

I sort of hope I am wrong. It would suck for State to eat it again and UNC to continue to dance over a 15 year rogue degree program but that is what I expect.

Remember, Keatts was the recruiting coordinator when the prostitution scandal took place at Louisville. If anyone believes that he knew nothing about where the recruits were spending every minute while they were on campus during their recruiting visits, then I have ocean front property for sale in Davie county.
 
What has he done other than win basketball games? Wake fans favorite sport is smearing people by innuendo. Kill them with smoke inhalation.

Do you not know anything about how kevin keatts got to where he is? do you not know he was probably the primary reason that lousiville was doing what they were doing..state somehow in the running for top recruits...when they havnt ever really done that (legally).

yeah im sure hes running a clean program at farm u

Nope, I don't deal in unsubstantiated rumors. I would trade Manning for Keatts and throw in our entire recruiting class, plus a recruit to be named later.
 
Every time I read this thread I get discouraged. Looks like we are competitive is with 3 stars, projects, or post grad transfers who are not difference makers. As I've said before, I think DM's reputation as a recruiter is over blown,
