I've been hearing rumors that Moore, Terrell, Carrington, and Clark are all visiting on the same weekend sept. 13-15 Jeff or Jack have you guys been hearing same thing?

If you can get all 4 you have to think Mick pulls the trigger and worries about the total scholarship number at the end of the season.

Isn't the Terrell/Abu announcement suppose to be in "the first two weeks of September" according to their AAU coach?
 
Clark has announced that date so yes he will be here. I have heard rumors that Moore could be here as well that weekend. As for Terrell and Carrington things have been very quiet. Ever since the Providence visit there really hasnt been a peep out of that camp. Could he be coming that weekend? Sure. But I havent heard anything about it. I hope he is coming because the clock is ticking and if they dont get him on campus I think UC is out of that race. I think Carrington is just idling along to see how the recruiting landscape looks in a few weeks. He was supposed to be visiting UC in August and that sounds like it has been delayed. Should be an exciting couple of weeks.

Jack I think UC is slipping for Terrell. Mick wants to sign one more guard be it wing or a pg. In my opinion the first solid verbal they get among these few guys will be accepted. This isn't a wait and see if "he" signs thing.

If they figure out a way to get them all on campus at once, I think that would be great for improving our chances. I think you can almost mark Moore down as a Bearcat, we are in the race for Clark but pulling him out of the south will be hard, Carrington is a Bearcat lean, and Terrell is 50-50 between us and Providence. Chinanu and Shayok are both still interested, but I think they would be tough to get and not as likely as the first tier of players I mentioned. I would put Snider in that second tier also.
 
Abu and Terrell are still scheduled to announce on September 7th.

Terrell's second visit to Rhode Island is set for this Thursday (8/22).
 
I hope I'm wrong but I think Terrell will stay in the Northeast. I love the kids intangibles and think he'd be a fine Bearcat we'd love. I was told that though he has said location doesn't matter that he'd truly love to stay closer to home but won't do it if he doesn't feel like he can win. Mick has put a lot of personal time into him and has established a culture of winning. UC is not out but all things equal he stays in the northeast in my opinion.

Lets pretend that Terrell is going somewhere else, what do you do with Chinanu, Moore, Carrington, Clark, Snider, and Shayok all still at least interested. If it came down to these six, you can probably mark down Moore. Jeff and/or Jack, who do you think the other two would be? If I had to guess now, I would go Clark and Carrington. Both have expressed lots of interest in us and we have recruited them for a long time. I wouldn't discount maybe seeing Chinanu being a Bearcat over Clark, but I think we will see Clark.

I hope this is the case - in reference to accepting the first solid verbal. I wouldn't want the perception to be that we're waiting on Terrell's answer and see Carrington as a back plan. Carrington isn't a consolation prize, he looks like a player that can elevate a recruting class.

I know there's still work to do, but Mick (and staff) must be doing a pretty good job of counteracting the "the UC isn't in a power conference" arguement that rival schools must be throwing out there. It's good to see us in the running and rumored as a destination for quality recruits.

Meant to say "back-up plan"
 
I've seen that also, but I have a hard time seeing him going to Rhode Island. I know they have Hurley now, but I think they are pretty late to the party. I think Providence has a better shot than Rhode Island.

I believe he will stay in the northeast, Providence or Rhode Island.
 
His teammate is sure making the rounds....

Having visited his other 3 options, Abdul Malik Abu is at UConn today, per reports
 
Said on twitter he has never been more mad, frustrated and overwhelmed in his life. Lets assume he has all those feelings for Providence.

Do these kids really know who Hurley is? Does his name carry weight as a coach? I'm sure he'll make a fine coach as his dad was, but I just don't see kids lining up to play for Rhode Island and the new coach on the block that was great before these kids were born. Something tells me these kids coaches are hyping up Hurley to them.

Wasn't he pretty big on the AAU circuit not that long ago?
