Bingo. Too many people worry about stars next to a player's name. This coaching staff has an idea of who they want and what type of player they want and they have been very good at getting those players recently.

Highly doubtful. Even if you do, know that the commitment is as soft as it gets. Other players that are high on their board at the same position are setting up visits (Beasley, Mitchell, Cheatham). No way the staff accepts that commitment at this stage.

Funny how much clearer things can become in a little over a week.

Exactly. Also remember that its not just about evaluating talent but evaluating who you can get. We all would have loved to have Julius Randle down on the block this season but it would have been a complete waste of the staff's recruiting focus to try to get him. With the disadvantages UC has in the recruiting game compared to their competitors its important to identify 4 year players that they can develop to stay competitive at the highest level. Once some other things fall into place (Higher recruiting budget, state of the art facilities, plane for mick.. ect) Their success will already be in place and they will be primed to recruit and get higher caliber players. It's the nature of the situation right now.

Edwards, who set Warriors season records for points (796) and 3's (76) while averaging 24.9, will attend a prep school, West Oak Academy of Orlando, Fla., for one year before advancing to Cincinnati on scholarship. So is he a commit or not? |
