Think many have questioned if he would ever make it to campus. Least heralded verbal I can ever remember.

I don't think his verbal was ever accepted to be honest. I think he verballed without the staff telling him he had a spot.

I wonder if this means we could be hearing about a commitment from another big soon? The staff had to know for a while now that Devon had verballed. Why talk to him now if there isn't something else in the works? The only other reason I can think of is the staff doesn't think he is Big East caliber.

Sounds like UC just took the offer off the table, if there ever really was one..... Maybe a sign of some good news coming our way (Hammons, Obekpa??)

Yeah I'm sure they told him on his visit that they will keep him in mind if they don't land their other priority big men. Like others said hopefully the staff feels good about getting Obekpa or Hammons. I think Scott will go on to be a nice player but will probably take him a couple years to be an impact guy.

Scott tweeted back to somebody and said UC is still at the top of his list FWIW.

It wouldn't shock me if the staff told him that at this moment they cannot accept his verbal and they wanted him to be clear on that so, if UC is unable to accept it in the future, he is not left without an opportunity to play D-1 hoops.
