Maybe we have a chance with Wahab?

He says the main thing he wants is playing time....and to make an impact....Assuming he'd get more minutes here than Georgetown
Who says we don't? Three of the best guys I follow says we do. Vader said 50% chance. Dokish said 50%. And Jake said he is undecided still. If those 3 say undecided, he hasnt made up his mind yet. Remember Tyrese Samuel and all the experts said Pitt lock then they all flipped their predictions to Seton Hall 10 minutes before he verbaled? They were all wrong. I also read Clemson is done for and Christian Brown is down to 3 with Pitt being 1 of 3.
 
Never know what kids value when they make a decision but IMO when you compare GT to PItt I think PItt Checks the boxes better.......

Immediate playing time - Zero competition at Pitt Kid would start as a true frosh. Not true at GT.

Impact on Team - Pitt desparately needs a big to go with the yound talented guards.......

Conference exposure and level of competition - Hands down ACC over Big East.

Coaching staff - Ewing gets the edge only becasue he played the same position at a high level at college and in the pros.........but You have to look at what this staff has done with brown as well as overall the quality of the Pitt staff.

School ----- Georgetown is a great school. I'd give the edge to GT.

IMO based on what this kid said Pitt is a no brainer but who knows.......

Vader said. Hahahahaha.

Until he has any credibility - cmon man.

And again - I’m not bashing his posts. He can post away. But he has no track record whatsoever.

The way he posts with such detail and the way others post is like comparing a scholar to someone learning English. I like his posts. As many have said, there is a premium board if you do not like him. I also find it interesting that players he has talked about are blowing up. Henry Coleman is one of them, he just visited Duke. Vader has been pretty darn spot on whether you like it or not. Coleman was barely ranked top 150 from other pkaces 6 weeks ago. Now he is at Duke visiting. I pay attention to detail.
 
thats just how recruiting is, no one knows anything unless the kids speak for themselves, its all guesses and sometimes people are right, regarding samuel something came up and im not sure what that was but everyone was saying he was going to pitt
 
It would be very surprising if he goes to Pitt. The contact between Pitt and him has dropped off.

And there you go. Despite me saying I have no problem you go with the “if you don’t like him” stuff. Brilliant.

Do you even understand what credibility means? He shows up out of nowhere and all the sudden he’s some expert because his posts are optimistic. People want to believe it and I get it.

If you wanna believe him - fantastic. But I’m someone who likes to have reasons to believe someone. Particularly somewhere where any jackass with a device and an internet connection can post anything. There are a few guys on here who clearly get some nuggets from time to time. Maybe he’ll prove to be another.

So if you wanna keep on saying “well if you dont like him.....hurr durr....” have at it. If it turns out he is in the know and builds some kind of credibility I’ll be a devoted follower. Until then he’s just some dude who posts once in a while with guesses and speculation - based on some information that’s available on the web and god knows what.

If you wanna believe then believe. But I do find it somewhat amusing that despite much if any evidence there seem to be many who accept it as gospel.

Unfortunately mama's got even more pull than playing time. The kid is a GT lock.

This part of the narrative doesnt make sense. The kid is from Nigeria. In most cases, the parents stay in Africa and the kid is sent to a handler (aka guardian). The handler is usually the one that calls the shots and receives the duffel bags. I dont know this kid's exact situation but it seems unlikely his mom is sitting there in Lagos with some profound love for Georgetown University.

Take it easy X2, don't mock the premium board until you compare it apples to apples. You do know that Doke, Vuk and most likely Vader all have premium board memberships and that is where they get a lot of their information.

LOL! This stuff just makes me laugh! Who cares if someone thinks they have inside information? No one has inside information unless they are either the kid or the kid's parents. The last time I checked, no one on here is a parent of any of the players our staff is supposedly going after. And no one on the premium board knows any more or any less than anyone else that much sooner than we get that information here. It's all speculation and entertainment.

I take what I read about recruiting with a grain of salt, no matter where it comes from. When I hear that the kid has signed his LOI, then I believe it.

I don't really think it was actually his mother...I just put that spin into it...it was/is his handler
