I know a 2020 PG who just got offered by Kennesaw State.
If Beran actually makes the dreadful decision to trek out to KSU, that would put us back in the hunt 97. Actually going there is a reason to give a kid pause about whether he wants to spend 4 years in Manhattan KS. It's just in the middle of nowhere.
. Anyway, this is the pattern - once a kid starts getting ACC offers he is gone. Buck was the exception - though I know he was being listed as offers from Michigan and UVA at one point, though not sure if those were confirmed.
Tbone, that is beside the point - he has ACC offers now - bye bye. I know a guy that played linebacker at K-State and all his kids are going there. They love it - but possibly that could be an affect of dad taking too many shots to the head
Football commit, Cameron Cloud, chose us over a UVA offer.
Talking basketball here. Curtis Blair picked us over Wake. Jarod Stevenson picked us over NC State. It does happen, but not now with our lack of recent success. Give us a dynamic coach and NCAA appearance and I will be back on board with our chances vs ACC for an occasional win.Football commit, Cameron Cloud, chose us over a UVA offer.
I understand the sentiment. I’m just saying that anyone who makes the actual trek to (m)anhattan will understand it’s a fairly desolate locale and not necessarily worth whatever prestige there is in being at a mid tier P5 program. I expect he’ll get other offers though which I think is your point.Tbone, that is beside the point - he has ACC offers now - bye bye.

there's always a reason to commit early. there are multiple offers out for your kid's spot. if he waits, his spot can get taken.
it's risky. if you have the offer you want, take it. for as many guys that get more offers late, there are just as many that have less. yes, if you're a stud you'll always have options. depends on your level.
Tournament makes no difference here. It’s the difference in being in the A10 vs a P6 conference. Unless there are academic deficiencies which in that case we are not in play.
Going to use some different logic here. I definitely agree that Ulla is a Vcu troll. He supports Moon no matter what, even though he is driving our program to irrelevance.
Are you saying that being in the tournament isn’t relevant to these kids or that it isn’t relevant in berans case? My comment is generalized, so you should take it in that context, but I think we are going to have a difficult time landing guys with P5 offers regularly without a recent history of post season appearances.
you know there's rule's, right? can't even send letters these days to a 2021.
Don't kid yourself, NCAA tournament appearances are extremely high on the list of every big time college basketball recruit. It doesn't take a genius to understand that consistent NCAA success correlates with a high quality program, i.e good coaching, favorable moments, exposure, and future opportunities.
Had you been around these boards and our programs for more than a hot minute, you would realize that inaccuracy of your post. I'm an alum, have been a season ticket holder for more than 15 years, attended nearly every home game and numerous away games for nearly 25 years now.
