'11 IN PG Marquis Teague (Kentucky Verbal)

BearcatTalk

Help Support BearcatTalk:

Kentucky and Louisville fans are both claiming Calipari and pitino are going to make visits to Teague tomorrow.

This shows that neither coach feels they are a lock. Maybe they are both going there to try to talk him out of his silent commitment to UC? haha .... maybe?
 
What an incredible Cinderella story! This unknown, comes out of nowhere, to lead the pack at Cincinnati. He's at the final buzzer. He's about 40 feet away, he's gonna hit about a 34 footer once he jumps, I think. [swings, pulverizes his opponent] Oh, he got all of that. The crowd is standing on its feet here at Fifth Third. The normally reserved crowd is going wild... [pauses] for this young Cinderella who's come out of nowhere. He's got about 2 seconds left, he's going to hit it off the backboard, it looks like, don't you think? He's got a beautiful stroke... [Shoots, pulverizes another opponent] that's- oh, he got all of that one! He's gotta be pleased with that! The crowd is just on its feet here. He's a Cinderella boy. Tears in his eyes, I guess, as he lines up the shot. He's got about 1 second left now, and he's got a, looks like he's got a bank off the backboard. This crowd has gone deadly silent... Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former high schooler, now about to become the Big East champion. [swings, pulverizes yet another opponent...oh the horror] It looks like a mirac- it's in the basket! It's in the basket!
 
Kentucky and Louisville fans, and their beat writers/recruiting experts as an extension, are too narrow minded to fathom any recruit choosing another school over one of them. Consequently, if a recruit ever mentions UL or UK, that is automatically where they are going. If both schools are recruiting him, it will be one or the other. Heaping doses of arrogance and delusion are a common cocktail when it comes to bluegrass basketball.

That's not to say Teague isn't going to one of those places...but I do believe UC has as good a chance as they do to land him.

Well done! You should have gone with " And the normally reserved sweater vests in the front rows are going wild!" :D
 
Less than 48 hours now... anybody else getting tense?

And as for the reports that Calipari and Pitino are going to be visiting with Marquis before he makes his decision... It wouldn't surprise me if Mick is doing the same, just without the hooplah and fanfare... we all know how quiet he is... What we really need is a "Mick-Tracker"... can someone plant some James Bond transponder device to his jacket so we know where he's at at all times? :D

I can't wait for about 12:30 on Thursday. The countdown will be on. Bearcattalk is going to be crazy.

We will be holding discussions most of the morning and plan on having a full out countdown from 12:30 until about 2.
 
Been stalkin around the internet and some people are claiming the Teague is now telling Cal not to visit.

Highly doubtful a recruit would tell Cal not to visit.

Just thought I would share.

Maybe Cal's offer was an insult compared to what he just gave Knight? Oh yeah, I just went there.

Well, if that is the case, that would mean that Teague is down to UC and UL. If that is the case, I feel good about our chances.
 
Well, I dont think Teague will be a Bearcat. I was just scouring the internet looking kentucky message boards. There saying that the UC coaching staff thinks he will choose Louisville and there seems to be some talk that Teague has informed the coaches that he will be a Cardinal. Hopefully this is all wrong and just fabricated, but I am not optimistic.
 
Dan Wetzel reported that Cal will visit Teague tomorrow and that Teague will decide between UK and UofL.

Rick Bozich says that any other school mentioned to be in contention for Teague is a pretender. He also reported that Louisville is scheduled to open their season at Butler (10 miles away from Pike High School).
 
i hate saying this, i just dont see any possible way he ends up at UC. Situations like these, where the whole country thinks its one school or the other, usually the kid doesn't pick a bunny out of the hat that isn't no one thinks has a chance (other than the fans of that school).
 
Hey all im a noob but.......... I seen this on Marquis facebook about a week ago "Marquis Teague- Can u c the picture im painting you ah portrait" it would be nice if the u c is the portrait he is talking about lol
 
It's official. :)

Great first post, although I'm still crossing both fingers on this one. I will say that Mick even being in on the recruit speaks volumes for his recruiting abilities.

Unfortunately you are probably right. The Teague family appears to be tight lipped, and just yesterday Shawn Teague said that they are still considering all five teams on his list. Where Rick Bozich gets his info I don't know, but he writes for the Louisvillle paper and I'm sure he has a Louisville bend. I think most of these guys get their info from what others have reported and run with it. My only hope that Teague may beome a Bearcat is that no one expected Mick to get Stephenson, and out of the blue he became a Bearcat. Maybe Teague is still going back and forth and is having a difficult time making his decision. If I were him I would lean on someone older than me to help my decision, someone like Khristian Smith.

Stephenson situation is way different though based on the timing and predicament.
