Jesus, you’ve already started your meltdown. There’s no need to attack recruits that haven’t even signed elsewhere because you’re an unstable lunatic that can’t handle rejection.

Sure, the staff has done all they can, and if Xavier were to choose Iowa there’s likely nothing they could have done differently. It doesn’t mean Foster is dumb, it means he doesn’t prioritize things that are typically most valuable to players that aspire to have success. And please, stop alluding to his Dad taking advantage of his son. This is the Foster’s decision, your bi-polar, insecurities be damned.

There should never be a meltdown over a single recruit going elsewhere. That doesn’t mean we don’t care. I’m sure the staff will care. We’ve recruited him for years and he would really help us win.
Unstable lunatic... lol snicker. :)

I am no fan of Fran but White definitely got much better from his freshman year till his senior year. Woodbury also improved noticeably, never got anywhere near his recruiting rankings, but he improved as a player. That being said I think both could have been better developed elsewhere.

Moss improved greatly from his recruiting video.

I have some trusted sources that I use that do know a lot, however always told me that you truly never know what an 18 year old kid will decide in the end (which is very true).
This is where I’m at.

Sources can be on with their assessment. But these are still just kids making a decision about college/basketball. Last minute flips happen to average high school kids, let alone those with huge pressure from all sorts of people. It’s kind of ridiculous when fans suffering from recruiting fatigue take the indecision personally

As with every single recruit and their decision, it's best to let it all play out. You want the kid to want to play for your school.. you don't want him to make a rash decision because it usually doesn't work out well in the end. It's an extremely tough decision for young adults to make and likely will impact the rest of their careers. It's best to wait it out and not get impatient because in the end, they're either going to choose the school you're a fan of or not.
