Slater Cb'd Wahab to Pitt!!!!!!!

I wonder if last night was a message to Wahab. Like Capel told him to watch the game to prove he will never come off the floor here because our bigs cant even get PT on a team with no bigs.
EXACTLY what I was thinking last night during the game.

Bold chess move by HCJC if this turns out to be true and results in Wahab committing to Pitt.

I’ve been out of the loop on recruiting news for a while as I tended to a family health issue, but this one is definitely a disappointing miss if it goes the way it’s trending. Walker and Wahab were two guys who were realistic gets for us that would’ve been just what the doctor ordered, so to most likely come out of it 0-2 is disheartening.

The one thing I hope we remember is that not every recruiting decision is the result of some backroom deal. These are kids and kids change their minds fairly often, so let’s not make fools of ourselves screaming about cheating or money changing hands. Recruits, their families, coaches, friends, etc. all pay attention to what is said online, so it’s better just to keep any reactionary anger to yourself.
Walker doesn't even start on his team. Kid was a reach for Miami, glad he isn't a Panther. Wahab is a whole nother matter though - the perfect fit here IMO.
 
He will be the highest rated of this years bunch though and Ewing will help his development. He also won't have to get put on a poster by the Zions of the world next year. It is his birthday today and wherever he goes good for him. He has earned it and life goes on. Next up - Brown, Twins, Dickinson, transfers. Capel will fill out this roster.

Dickinson and the twins are 2020
 
That's dumb. If he comes here he will play the whole game but if he goes to Gtown he sits?
He'd play a lot more here then there.
He will play some, but someone out of the 4 centers will barely play, and I'll bet you we see one center from Gtown transfer.
I was being a bit facetious, out of emotion.

Coaches are not above telling a guy he will start or play starters minutes and then not following through--lots of smoke blown in the recruiting game. However, in this case he can be 100% assured of minutes here but likely not necessarily so at Georgetown due to the competition. To be fair Wahab is more highly star rated than the other two centers Geogetown has signed this year both 3-stars. On the current roster they also have a 7 footer from Turkey (NCState transfer) and a 6-10 starting Center (but he is graduating senior).
 
Jakes great. But he retracted his tweet about Pitt and Georgetown. So only Vader and Doke get full credit. Vader gets the most, called it a coinflip a month ago with Pitt drawing even. Vader never retracted, never edited his post, never changed a prediction, never flip flopped like other insiders do. Everyone said gtown except with big 3, Vader, Chris, and jake. I see a lot of vader hate coming if wahab says pitt is it. Same usual suspects showing up again here... I'll just smile if he chooses pitt and celebrate
It could be pitt over someone else other than GTown. Vader better check the pay board. Maybe Dokish has as well. Go pay board! Go Peak!
 
Omer Yurtseven will be starting at the 5 for Georgetown. That should be pretty clear to everyone. No way would Wahab start at Gtown next year.
 
It aint over till he signs on the dotted line and isnt that some time in March or later?

Exactly. Didn't we lose Heron after he verballed to Pitt and signed with Auburn? I don't believe anything, especially from some kid, until he signs his LOI. In blood. Even if he says he's coming to Pitt, Wahab may or may not end up here. Him verballing means very little.

College football recruits enjoy the heck out of sitting the bench a few years instead of playing early at a place where there is a need. College basketball players are smarter than this but perhaps Wahab would rather sit behind Yurtseven?

I don’t want to give pay board info up here. But let’s just say the OP Suckling up to Vader and Dokish is quite amusing.
I'll bet its the same exact georgetown insider source I mentioned last night on this board where the source said he doesnt think Wahab to gtown. And I said take the information as fwiw and as is. Vader hasnt posted anything in over a week. He hasnt had the chance to flip flop a million times. Honestly dont care. If wahab chooses another school its all for nothing and move on to the next one. Vader was the perfect name. Hes like a cross between good and evil in the movie and people like him or hate him on this board. Its actually funny and fitting at the same time
 
In other words, no one knows for sure. Is he signing the LOI today at 4? If not, then he might as well be going to RMU. You do realize these are silly kids who change their minds all the time and don't value commitment, right?
I could see this kid (and others) changing his mind before signing date.

Maybe, just maybe, Vader hasn't posted anything in over a week because you haven't bothered to log out of your X2 account and log back in to your Vader account ;)

In light of the Wahab news...

Help us Obi Wan Kenobi... er... Help us Vader. You're our only hope!
 
Oh baby its looking like a good day. Go Vader and go Doke and go Capel!!!!! If this happens the whole board does a 180 today.
When did Vader say Wahab would chose Pitt? I've only seen him say it's a two team race between us and GTown
