SEMO losing two good recruits, but 51-105 in the last 5 years, not sure it makes a difference. Hope he finds what he's looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like this young man's game. I was just asking someone about him possibly asking for his release while I was at the game tonight. Congratulated Phil after the game....I missed out on a possible scoop lol. I think he fits in with the type of players Ford is bringing in but they might be looking for another big right now.

For that to be the case, then by or around that date, SLU will have to announce someone's departure or retirement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A school can have more players with commitments to the school and known scholarship players than 13. It just needs to be resolved before the start of school. Ideally a coach knows, but has not gone public with a player who intends to leave. It is common for a player to tell the coach they are leaving, but not want it public until thier last semester is complete. That said, I have seen schools recruit over recruits they already have committed and released them late in the recruiting process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be eventually right - I think a school only has to be at 13 by the start of school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can @Coach314provide any insight? I want to go back and listen to the podcast, but doesn't look like it has been updated. I caught it while Frank was in the middle of it, so I was trying to figure out if it was a hypothetical, a likelihood or certainty - the more he talked, it seemed like a certainty. He said he has some of Yuri's playmaking ability and could be a back-up there, but could also play along with Yuri and provide some good outside shooting. Frank said don't be fooled by the fact he was a SEMO recruit - he was under-recruited. We'll see, maybe somebody else was listening to Frank and could fill in some blanks.
