Sorry, I don't believe this for a second. There was way too much damage done the last 24 hours before he committed for him to actually play with Ayo at Illinois. Too many egos involved.

For what it's worth, I agree with you. I almost feel bad for Underwood. Imagine going into a new scenario and you're immediately caught between the best AAU program in Chicago and arguably the best high school program in Chicago. Underwood chose Mac Irvin, but wow what a nightmare scenario.
This podcast was excellent. Corey Evans speaks very highly of all 4 commits and seems very impressed by what Prohm was able to accomplish this fall. He believes this is a top 10 class nationally and likes Talen Horton-Tucker most. Also, Evans says at the end he still thinks the two main contenders for Tyler Harris are Memphis and Iowa State. Calls it "50/50"
My opinion is that he's waiting until spring.
We dont have room for him without some spring attrition, right? Or is my count off by 1?
It is a good interview with Evans with some good perspective on each prospect thanks for posting.
Corey Evans has been consistent on his feeling on Tyler Harris and ISU even after filling the last open scholarship.
For those who haven't listened he said Tyler is 50/50 on if he commits during the early period and 50/50 between ISU and Memphis. No other schools are currently involved. He also didn't think ISU 2018 class yet was set as most schools have attrition. Tyler would be a top option and good fit with the 2018 commitments or a late Grad Transfer.
My interpretation of what CE said, if Tyler waits to the spring to sign he will likely end up at ISU.
Anyway on to signing day, time to welcome this class and worry about an other roster changes later.
Welcome to CycloNation!
Thanks 101 and LL. Sounds like to me he is going to wait in hopes that we have a spot. Not just IF he waits til spring, but THAT he is waiting til spring.
In other news, whar THT, Zion and George? Chicago kids all sleeping in?

I never wish for anyone to leave, but if someone does, what a class it would be with the addition of Harris.
All are scheduled to sign after school today, starting at 5 PM central. THT is the only person who hasn't said a specific time for when he is signing, hence the speculation around him by Illinois media members.
Except none of the Simeon kids have a set time yet, hence it's all BS speculation
They all posted a collage that said doors open at 6. So that would be my guess.
I love watching Roy Schmidt's twitter, dude is an imbecile who is openly pushing for people boycotting other publications (and to follow honest, truthful ones, like his lol) as well as putting out very one sided statements as fact. Then labels himself the bigger man because people unfollow him or call him out on his BS. I enjoy what the prep hoops site can provide as far as IL recruiting, but he is brutallll.
Oh, I guess so. I guess I just figured it was their mass signing day because it was the day before NSD. didn't even look at the date.
