Watch for the effort to increase on Corban Collins if this is true. That wold give them more options next season but the big men for 2013 aren't deep. However, there are always bigs that make a move their senior year.
 
Cmon guys. Lets not be 'those fans' that make these kind of baseless accusations just because of a turn of momentum or he chooses another school. As of right now, UC is still in the hunt. Think positive

Anyone care to elaborate on the allegations against Lavin which are being discussed?

I'm interested in these allegations as well? This isn't done yet. I think it's funny that the second this kid appears to be going to another school that these allegations pop up.
 
They do this junk all the time.

They get on this message board and act like they know something but can't divulge it.

I assure you the two of them don't know jack.
 
I gotta know as well - first post but registered a couple weeks ago and have been a BCN member since the email list days, if that qualifies me..

Do I "know" something? Can't say with 100% certainty. Do I have information? Yes! Will I share it publicly? No! If you don't wanna read what we share go to another board. It's not over till he signs and with his recruitment we have seen anything is possible. What I know for a fact is UC has led for some time and St. Johns, in spite of a visit there, in March I believe, had been pushed down to the "also" in the mix category that is like the friend zone of recruiting. Now stories are popping up every where that out of the blue St. Johns stepped back in and Bam! they lead. I also know for a fact that Chris himself has wanted to be a Bearcat for some time now and his handlers have continued to shield him and try and steer him to other opportunities. I've reported this for weeks. What suddenly made St. Johns more attractive? All I know is you can put make up on an ugly girl but underneath she's still ugly. You can date her but sooner or later the make up comes off and you see the truth.

Guys with or without Chris Obekpa this is a top 25 team and will be very good next season. He has enormous defensive potential. However, at 220 lbs., he is not coming in and anchoring the 5 spot right away. Hopefully the rumors are false and he becomes a Bearcat, plays his role this season, and is on the roster competing for a starting spot next season. If he doesn't UC will be fine and keep winning and look to 2013 for another big. If Harrell leaves Louisville uncommitted Saturday he is still an option fo 2012. Good luck Chris whoever you choose.

Thanks! I love all the recruiting info! Any word on where Ellis might go?
 
Also hearing there could be issues with qualifying when it's all said and done. Who knows with this kid and the way things have been handled by those around him? Again, I wish him luck however it all plays out. I'd like to have him long term, short term he adds some defense and shot blocking.

Last I heard was Mick is helping him find a place to land. Had he not previously been involved in the Xavier incident he would still be a Bearcat imo.

You have some right and some wrong sprinkled in your post . While you can't be 100% about your allegations then why leak them to certain posters on this board? Allegations are either true or false . You couldn't be more wrong about where This kids handlers want him to go. I can tell you for sure that you are not out of it and if he attends college in the fall it will be one of the two schools.

"Hopefully the rumors are false and he becomes a Bearcat". Never said UC was out of it. This kids recruitment is one of the most tightly held I've seen in years. I am not wrong about the handlers. I did not mention a school they wanted him to go to. I said, "his handlers have continued to shield him and try and steer him to other opportunities". If you are going to debate this at least do so based on what I said, not what you thought you read. Allegations are just that. They are actions that are alleged. As I said earlier if the alleged actions are true they will eventually find day light in some form. Now I'm hearing there could be qualifying issues. Who the hell knows the truth of it all? I guess some do but they aren't talking.

I'm not debating anything. I know who handles him and what you are saying is flat out false. You can also spare me your definition of allegations. I am aware of the meaning. You however are talking in riddles in regards to these allegations. " if they are true and they come to light" you say. The truth always comes to light , so if you are sure about them just say so. The lochness monster hasn't been caught for a reason .
