Some quotes from Arkansas message board as of 3/31/10:

Ratliffe has it down to Clemson Alabama and Arkansas. I haven't heard anything on recruiting the last week or so.

Ratliffe isn't a pipe dream. He is about as close to a lock as one can be.

I have been wrong plenty of times before, but I usually don't post unless I am 100% sure. I am on this. He is coming.

Ratliffe enjoyed his visits to Arkansas and Alabama. He declined to favor one over the other, though he did mention that the Razorback fans certainly did their part in wooing him with chants, autograph requests and the general celebrity treatment.

Ratliffe is a Hog. I don't think Pel has to do too much more to get his signature because it is already pretty much a lock he is coming. Knowing what I know now makes more excited about the basketball team next year.

Nothing in recruiting is a lock, but I do expect Ratliffe to sign with us

Based on what I have been told, it is a lock. I'd definitely put money up on it, I am that confident.

Iwould never feel that confident about any player who stated
"I have cut my list, but if the right team and situation came and called the night before signing day, I would sign with them even if I never visited, if it felt right." I really believe the Hogs may be his leader, but i also belive his recruitment is wide open to any school, literally, until the day he signs his LOI...


My statements aren't based on any article or recruiting website. Mine are based on sources VERY close to the situation.

Ya that is great your sources come from someone very close, becuase my source is RR himself. That is not someones opinion that I posted, that is from an interview and he made that statement. I watched and listened to him state, "If the right team and situation comes along the night before signing day, I will sign with them, even without ever visiting." So, how good your source is is irrelavent when the player himself is making statements like that. Like say, he really may be a heavy Arkansas lean, and I hope he is, but to say he is a lock is crazy when he is making statements like that...



-Not much mention of little ole' Cincinnati up in those northern states.

The SEC Boards will light up with angry chatter when he commits to UC. :)

Be a Bearcat Ricardo!
 
Ricardo Ratliffe "may" be a Bearcat. There is a possibility. He knows there is playing time to be had immediately.
 
We need Ricardo BAD! And we need to find a SG that can fill it up from deep. I think Sean Kilpatrick can step in at the 3 and do a good job. I think we need to go the JUCO route. Are Yancy and Dion our only 2 Juniors next year?
 
Well, Clemson is scratched off the list.


"Ricardo Ratliffe crosses Clemson off list after Purnell move to DePaul. Not considering DePaul either. Down to Ark, Ala, Miizzou & Cincy."

All's quiet and he's still scheduled to visit? So far I'd definitely take that as a good sign.
 
Announced on his FB page that he will attend Missouri.


Sorry fellas.

Disappointing, but not entirely surprising. The style that Missouri plays (40 minutes of hell) is appealing to a lot of players.
