2 more spots

Good question. He originally reopened his recruitment but there never was an official release announced. I have assumed he's still a signed player.

He's only allowed to be recruited if he was released from his LOI. Especially if he's taking official visits.

Settles that.
Most players are released if there is a coaching change
Most of the time it probably makes sense for both parties to move on. Nobody's around that recruited him in the fall. No trust built up. I still think it was in John's best interest to come to a program like us but it is what it is.
 
If there is only 1 spot left, then I would prefer

1. Nigel Johns

2. Wokur, Wur whatever his name is, cant remember name.

3. Cannon.

Reason:

If only 1 spot, a BIG is more important then even Cannon

If 2 spots:

1. Either Nigel John, or Wokur, Wur, and Cannon

2. Nigel John, or Wokur, Wur, and Kemp

3. Cannon and Kemp

Its not set yet that Ali is coming back, taking 1 of the last 2 spots.

At least I have not heard a news announcement:

"Ali is coming back, and has been accepted back and has been given 1 of the 2 scholies"

Also I would rather have Cannon, an or Kemp over Ali.

Basically I want 1 BIG and 1 guard/wing to fill last 2 schollies.

For Big: Nigel John/Wokur, Wur

1. Nigel John

2. Wokur, Wur

For Guard/Wing

1. Cannon

2. Kemp

3. Ali

If forced to have 2 guard/wings

1. Cannon/Kemp

2. Cannon/Ali

3. Kemp/Ali


If only 1 spot

1. Nigel John

2. Wokur,Wur, big

3. Cannon

4. Kemp

5. Ali
 
Nigel John is big kid with solid athleticism but he is also very raw and would take probably two years before he would be a contributor. There is a reason he has limited offers and limited interest.
 
With school starting next month, he had to make a decision of some sort very soon. Probably a good move on his part. There didn't seem to be any school beating down the door for his services at this late date. Maybe he'll keep WSU on his list, although that assumes the coaching staff is still interested, too.

Looks like John has has reclassified to 2020 per his twitter.

Funny how Smith was criticized for his recruiting by some yet here is how the departures from the Kent era turned out.

Ryan Murphy: Pitt (program in complete disarray.)
Chance Moore: JC
Isaiah Wade: No takers
Carter Skaggs: UNCW
Nigel John: reclassified after he got no takers.

It doesn't look like we lost a lot by having Kent leave.
 
Yup and all of dufus recruits are mainly recruits no one wanted. Yet this board panicked over losing all of Kent s recruits and having to play what the cat brung in

Only one poster complained about losing Kent's recruits. I thought Smith (the genius) had to fill a bunch of spots in short order but turns out he's already recruiting on par to Kent's best classes. Not bad considering Kent's strength was recruiting.

LIAR. Noah Williams was, is both a 3 star according to some recruiting services, and a 4 star by other recruiting services.

4 star recruits are NOT unwanted recruits.

3 star James also had interest.

3 star Bonton also had interest.

But despite that, you keep on LYING, BEING A LIAR, WRONGLY saying that supposedly NONE of the recruits were, are wanted.

The only recruit that hasnt had others interest was, is 2 star Rapp.

2,3 star Rodman has had other interest

3 star Marko, 7 foot 1 and 1/2 tall 200+ pound CENTER, who was a U20 Olympic Olympian has had others interest

STOP LYING LIAR
 
Funny thing happened on the way to the forum. People are saying that no one else wanted Kent s recruits . Now they are returning and four of them are starters.Hm i wonder what that says about the quality of recruits being brought in by Dufus and the gang? You guys shoud think before you post :) Re ruiting at a level never seen before!

It says that we expect Smith to do better with Kents recruits than Ernie did.

Ernie had the leading scorer in the conference and one of the top freshmen last year and lost 20 games.
Kent's best year was his first year, with Bone's recruits. The majority of the minutes played that season were by players recruited by Bone.
