He’s very douche. He’s been let go from every job with substance. He claims all kinds of stuff to get clicks. It’s really just a culmination of a lot of things he’s done. Now he’s just a click bait guy.

He's always been a click bait guy. Everyone gave him slack for a while because of his experience and name recognition. He's squandered most of that clout

You don't know how much Pope has to spend. You don't know how much Oweh makes. You don't know how much anybody is offering Wilkerson.
How do you know I don’t know what Oweh is looking at??? Bet you didn’t know that chandler made more than Oweh last year…..and you don’t think Oweh is getting his worth?? You know he is and he deserves it for this season but it’s already reported iu is offering more so do your research and use some common sense……Oweh is going to make Dent type money, common sense, since he’s looking at AA status next year. Is iu paying anyone that kind of $$??

I don't understand how anyone can listen to Bruce Pearl for more than 20 seconds and not come away thinking his pitch is forced.
His pre game speeches to his team are so cringe. I feel like he's eventually going to get desperate enough to bring out thee ole "LET'S WIN THIS ONE FOR THE GIPPER" speech.
He might get like Dale Brown (LSU Coach), bring in props, or people to get his team up. BP reminds me of Brown. Will say or do anything.

No need for mad emojis on that report imo. TOS already had been saying he would take the visit. We are, by every account, thought to be the leader as of this very moment. Can change quickly of course
Yeah I thought that was known by everybody. He was gonna take all 3 visits then make a decision. But sisk and pilgrim said uk feels good about where they are. Appreciate the graf update

I feel good. The likelihood of us landing him is good if IU isn’t feeling good. We have no reports that indicate Auburn is on the same tier as we are. Out of respect for Pearl, I’d never count him out.

Indiana is the big fish to this point and if they don’t feel good, I feel really good

Yes there was. Remember when someone said earlier that LW would in fact take the Auburn visit?

Let us say THAT report was correct.
This thread is moving too fast for me, but didn’t the guy say he’d take all his visits and then make a decision? Just seems he’s sticking to his word, unless something else is out there.

If I was a recruit, I’d for sure take all my visits and get wined and dined.

You’re correct and tbh that was always the general expectation from the beginning, pre-arranged by their team. Frankly it makes sense for both the athlete and the agent.

I don’t know but it feels like when one of these recruiting attempts drag out, we come up short.
I fear Lanier 2.0. My subconscious can’t forget that one. I had that dude all but locked up in my mind last year and this player gives me the same time of optimism. We will see how it shakes out. Big deal for me —- I see a lot of people referring to it as a luxury pickup and I disagree with that. This would fix the last fixable hole we have

That was an uphill battle trying to overcome the “hometown” factor. Also rumors that UT had been back channeling for months in preparation and we were late to the game. I dunno why Cal prioritized Jackson over this kid but that shouldn’t be a factor here.

The fans who call Wilkerson a "luxury" have forgotten how incredibly hard it is to win a national title (or even make a Final Four).

You would think our fans would know better after a ten year drought.

Maybe some of them are okay with not making Final Fours?

I do as well. Now I’m not gonna lie as I have said before pettiford Wilkerson and hall would be filthy. But Lowe Jasper Wilkerson and Owen would be more insane

I understand how his 3 point percentage could plummet against better competition, but how in the heck does your FT shooting percentage drop that much? Sheesh!
SHIIIIITTTT intimidation is real. Dudes in bigger conferences just mean mug better, that is how.

"Common sense". I repeat, you don't know.

Especially since nowadays most of these guys literally get paid tens of thousands to just visit.

Ok cool guy, you know who everyone else knows etc. no doubt you’re a “get off my lawn” type guy, you truly add zero thought to any post, congratulations & nice pic too,
