That might be jet lag. Played in 3 games in a couple weeks across the country. Plus he might be decided.

I hope thats the case and Cal hasnt sealed the deal. I cant deal with UK having that good of a class

Deal with it...it's been over for quite some time now

Fulford told CBS’ Jeff Borzello that Wiggins canceling the home visits “means nothing. He’s just tired. Doesn’t want to deal with it.” While he’s too worn out to host visits, Wiggins will speak to Roy Williams, Bill Self and Leonard Hamilton over the phone instead.

It's easier to break-up over the phone.

Eh, I wouldn't get ahead of yourself with it, according to his HS coach, the one who is pushing for UK, he is just exhausted and getting overwhelmed by the whole thing...and if you think of it like that Lexington doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. No one knows with this kid yet, just how it is.

 

[wildkycat]

just a joke. if we get him, we get him. if we don't, we don't. we're straight either way.

there's nothing about Lexington that "doesn't make sense." but like I've said before, he's gonna be fine wherever he goes.

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Exactly but if he is a shy kid who doesn't like the spotlight than Tallahassee would make a lot more sense than Lexington you homer.

 

[wildkycat]

the kid being dubbed the next great thing, the best HS player since Lebron, who's been penciled in as the No. 1 pick when he's eligible for the draft for the last two years better get used to it.

go to FSU and he's gotta be the Lord and Savior. come to UK and he's playing with other pro's in front of NBA-sized crowds and on TV every night, along with all the other things that'll come with playing with a historically great class. that's preparation for the next level. how does that "not make sense"?

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Not everyone wants to be LeBron or Kobe...Some people perfer being Tim Duncan. Some people don't crave the spotlight and its easy to stay out of it if you intend too.

 

[al3xis]

I'd advise not dragging a recruitment into May in that case.

If he doesn't want to deal with it then just make up your mind

that's a good point, but he could've ended all this attention a long time ago, like Allen said. he may just have a hard time telling coaches "no" as people have mentioned. he'd get the entire spotlight at FSU, no?

he's gotta be the biggest recruit in history that nobody's really knows about (from a personal standpoint/getting a read on.)

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Psshhh, Osh knows the breakfast preferences for every Canadian basketball player under the age of 23...


And I get don't drag it into May but like a lot of 18 year olds, they can be conflicted when making decisions. Ultimately, its a one-year stop for him so it really makes minimal difference in the grand aspect of his career. He should just go wherever he'll be the happiest during that year before it really starts and he gets to the league and is faced with the bigger burden of expectations.

FSU is a football school, completely different, you know that. Just like Durant at Texas. there wills till be empty seats in that arena come November...that's just how it goes.

Also, why go to UK and play second fiddle to Randle who I expect to be the more ready guy at the college level?

 

[dacomeup]

It sounds like these were visits set up by the schools, and not Wiggins. Nothing substantial. 

 

[seymore cake]

Wait L'ville is going to be apart of the ACC?

 

[woody2626]

Lol yea they're joining in '14-15

 

[seymore cake]

Wheeeeeeeweeee

#NoDaysOff NoLacking

 

[outkast9984]

why play next year? lets just give the chip to kentucky already.....i think the only impressive guy from the crop they got is randle...the twins havent impressed me too much from the games i saw...that could change of course at kentucky but they dont seem motivated...

 

[awwsome]

I don't care where Wiggins goes as long as its not Kentucky. Squad would be too loaded plus I would rather see him getting as many shots as possible, being the leader of the team and in the ACC

Randle is the best player on UK but Andrew Harrison is real, he could be as good as any point guard in the country especially surrounded by as much talent as they have. Him, Randle, Poythress and WCS in the open floor is going to be fun to watch.

‏@GoodmanCBS
Kansas State losing sophomore point guard Angel Rodriguez to transfer. Significant blow for Bruce Weber and Wildcats.

Big loss for State. I can see Weber lasting another year there before he gets canned.

What?

 

[worldbeefreeg]

I wonder if Mike Dunlap would come back to St. Johns

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Trevor Lacey transferring from Alabama. That really hurts the tide

 

[pauliepeppas]

Cuse gets a home and home with Unc and Duke this year....need to get back up to the Dome for those

 

[seymore cake]

Is CJ Fair still there?

 

[young thundercat]

^ I pray to god he's not...he's gonna be a problem for the ACC next year.
