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

I am still looking for the segue that got us to the Dem nominee for 2020 :noidea::noidea::noidea:

It's a non-sekarltur

If I recall correctly, when they signed John Collins for the 2015 class.

No, we had at most 10 returning scholarship players by the time Collins signed as the third recruit in his class.

By my count we had 11 potential returning players at the beginning of the 14-15 season: https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/wake-forest/2015.html

Overton announced his transfer December 9, 2014

so I guess you're right: we had officially one too many for about 3 weeks in that season before first Overton, then Jones and Rountree transferred out before the start of the 2015-16 season

What was the name of the player we lost out to Illinois a year or two ago?

Tyrese Samuel to announce this weekend.

I am glad UConn isn't on his list anymore. My annoying co-worker went to Georgetown, yet proclaims himself to be a huge UConn fan. So I'd like for UConn to continue to suck.

He should go to Seton Hall if he doesn't come to Wake Forest... That is a program that I have no issues with (or really any contact with).

Apparently the star on the Orane Prep (Samuels) team (one game sample size) is Matthew-Alexandar Moncrief (2020). With the dash in his first name, he belongs in Winston-Salem.

Can we hope that Neath and Samuels are a canadian combo commitment?

We can hope. Don't know what else that gets us.

Soooo, this is a thing that could actually happen?? Seems like a list of teams we can win out against. Well, in recruiting.

If we lose out to Pitt, you'll know that we haven't yet reached rock bottom.

With Capel that’s a different story

I would say he is a lock to Pitt.

The Bagman scoreth.

 

[DeacsATS]

Not saying it won't happen for PITT (it probably will), but they don't have a single 2019 commit yet. And aside from Trey McGowens, Capel hasn't had much of a recruiting honeymoon.

You’re right. We could and should easily beat this group out. We offered Samuels early and were listed as a contender for awhile. I don’t know what happened, but his recruitment cooled and we’ll lose him to programs who we should be beating for recruits.

Sunshine brigadiers will claim this is not a loss and that we would rather have Oguama and Bilau anyway.

What a mess. The return on investment for basketball recruiting expenses has been pathetic under Manning.

So on this end, we get the story that Manning should have had Samuels but lost him. On the other end, Racer has contended that Samuel's recruiting cooled because he wasn't really a top player and that was the only reason he was still interested in Wake instead of other programs.

Glad to see, as usual, we have every conceivable negative angle lined up in case we don't get him and even if do get him.
