UC is in Whites top three. Don't believe everything you read.

we all want to believe this. my only question is this- obviously these services are getting the names of schools he is considering from someone close to the situation. yet they dont even mention uc in the top 5? something doesnt add up.

this is eerily familiar to the eric bledsoe situation. everyone says all along we have a great shot at him, says we are in his final 2/3...yet no one outside of uc insiders ever published uc's name as being considered.

the Bledsoe situation came down to UC knowing about his grades and UK turning a blind eye...FACT!!! It is also a fact UC is in close with White. I've never said he lands here, frankly just the opposite. But it is a fact he has high interest in UC.

that is fair- im not doubting anyone who says that UC/White have legit mutual interest. just dont understand why (and this isnt the first time this has happened) that analysts dont list uc as being in on a guy that we think we are in strong with.

The same thing happened with Teague. According to most of the recruiting services you would have thought it was just UL and UK, and we weren't even recruiting him.

good example. i dont get why that is? if anything, even if we do not get them, it is positive exposure for other recruits to hear marquis teague had us in his final 2/3, same for white.

So what are you basing it on? Evan Daniels is basing it on his conversation with him.

Bledsoe was going to UK about as soon as UK offerred him. Without UK I do think he choose UC.

This recruitment reminds me a lot of Teagues. Obviously UC was in with him (and White) but it was always a two horse race and even at the press conference with Teague he mentioned it was between UK and UL. I have a feeling White's is a two horse race between UK and GU.

Yes and when UK jumped full in on Bledsoe I said he'd attend UK. It doesn't make the other things less factual.

I am basing what I say about Andrew on conversations I know he has had with the UC staff. Again, I have said since his Kansas visit that I believe he is the Jayhhawks to lose. I don't get your argument here. But then again I rarely do.

I'm pretty accurate on the info I post on here. Matter of fact I'll put my accuracy against any site the size of those locally and I have less resources. I communicate with coaches and local writers and personal contacts. I miss on signings and nobody is entirely accurate but I don't post without being fairly certain about my source. When I'm not certain I say I'm not sure how accurate the info is.

a few inaccuracies here.

first off, bledsoe said his final 3 at his presser was UK, UF, and Memphis.

teague said at his presser that UC was his #2 choice behind UK.

I never said anything about you making nonfactual about Bledsoe.

As for White, I wasn't making an argument. I was asking where you got your info from, because Daniels spoke to him and UC wasn't listed.

Never mentioned anything about the accuracy of your info. You are being quite defensive here.

I don't exactly recall Bledsoe, but my memory was that it was between UK and UC. I do remember Memphis, but I don't think UF was a big factor and I don't think they wanted him. I think he had just always wanted to go to UF.

As for Teague, at the presser I'm pretty sure he had the hats of UK and UL. Again, it's been a little while but when did you every see anything stating UC was his #2? I don't ever recall that. I'm pretty sure I even remember hearing the audio clip of the presser and he never mentioned UC.

He never mentioned UC at the presser, but only had the UK hat at the presser. Here is the quote I think DP is referring to:

Marquis Teague, Scout.com's top-ranked point guard of the class of 2011, ended a "back and forth" recruitment process Thursday, choosing the Wildcats over rival Louisville, the latest in a series of high-ranked commitments for Kentucky.

"It's has been really close. I also had Cincinnati in there," Teague said in a press conference, according to the Louisville Courier-Journal. "People don't now I liked them a lot. Coach [Mick] Cronin and I are really close. It's been real tough. It's tough to tell coach Pitino no."

unless I missed one where he said UC was #2.

Thanks, I couldn't exactly remember the hats, just knew he didn't have UC's. I don't recall seeing those quotes from him, so thanks for posting.

I will go on record stating that UC would have been his choice had some WW Wes stuff not happened, that made it a family choice for him that he had no choice but to go to UK. I'm just saying.
