I see a great year ahead. I am predicting us beating Duke even. As far as recruiting goes I think we are still in good shape. Shai wants to sign next month but said he wanted to take 1-2 visits to make sure he was happy with his choice and won't have to transfer after a year or 2. I think he could only visit if he decommitted so he did. We are still high on his list but he wants to make sure. I think we keep him in the end.Recruiting was going ok until we just lost our best recruit. This season is probably going to be similar to last year. Maybe worse even since we don't have any home games the first half of the season. I expect us to be on the bubble at the end of the year.

After reading a little more, I felt a little bit better about Alexander's situation as well. We have a good shot at keeping him as we'll have a slot ready for him to step into right away. Go look at the other schools to make sure (can't blame him), but I believe we have the best situation for him to get early, and meaningful PT.I see a great year ahead.

I'll be very happy with 10It will be a success if we can stay within 20 of duke.
No because you don't hold up to your end

Haven't seen anything yet, other than who was reportedly interested in him - Butler, VaTech and UCLA. I assume he's going to visit VaTech since that's where his cousin is committed and probably UCLA just for the trip out west and to see the hotties.Have you found any listing of who he migt want to visit before deciding again?
Slap me in the face!
Here's another thought - Jalen Hudson transferred away from VaTech and Buzz Williams. Gotta be some reason for that as I figure their styles matched up. Maybe a personality conflict?
UCLA has the rep, and Alford, so they may be the one to worry about here. Though I still think Alexander's cousin being committed to VaTech could be a hurdle to overcome.....................................and the UCLA hotties.
I getcha, but when Avery Johnson, a former NBA point guard, is the coach, yeah, a young PG might be interested in playing for someone like that. The SEC has seen increased BB coaching talent in the past couple of years with the addition of Johnson, Howland, Barnes and Pearl (round 2).
Ucla has definitely lost its luster. I've seen that place pretty empty over the pastvfew years. Not to mention Steve alford's seat is red hot. I can't remember the last time vatech made the tourney. I just don't get it.Though according 247 sports Alexander has unofficially visited UF, they say the he has not officially visited UF. Maybe if he ever takes an official to UF, he can talk to Hudson to see why he left VPISU.
As for UCLA, they have a certain attraction and so does UF. And as you say UF as the best PG situation out there.
