tell me how IU could go from his #1 leader to not even getting a visit in a span of 24 hours? Crean saw something he didn't like in Irving household/circle of influence. |

IU was never the clear, #1 leader first of all. And WWW has nothing to do with it. He is in no way connected to Kyrie Irving or his recruitment. On the other hand, WWW is connected to the recruitment of Josh Selby, who Tom Crean is hotly pursuing now. Take off the crimson colored glasses for a minute. The Irving's weren't impressed with Tom Crean and didn't feel like IU was a place that Irving could go to and win. |

Gotta agree with dcam on this one. I think the more likely scenario is that Coach K got into the Irvings' heads with negative recruiting. That would partly explain the anger toward Coach K (along with his Knight comments) and why Coach Crean has started talking about being affected by negative recruiting. |

The guy picked last in gym class

You really think that the main objective for a likely one year and done kid is winning? I would say winning comes far down on the list and is secondary to what comes along with it...that being more national attention and most likely a better chance to look good for scouts. Anyway, I'm looking forward to players that aren't one and dones. I liked Gordon and all and am glad he's doing well in the pros, but you can't build a program from the ground up with guys that are only going to be there for a year. If Irving were looking to be a guy who was going to come in here and be the focal point our offense for a year, it certainly would have helped us for one year but also would have hindered the development of the guys who are sure to be here for three or four years. |

I highly doubt that Irving will be one and done. |

MAYBE Irving goes a couple of years...in 2008, there were 10 one-and-dones that were drafted in the first round, in 2009 there were 5 players who graduated high school in 2008 and were taken in the first round. Rivals has Irving ranked #9, scouts has him at #6 which I would say puts him as a definite possiblity to be a one and done. At most, I don't see him being there more than two years. It's the nature of today's game. |

Creative Title Here

Post of the Year. You cream UB for pretending to know what happened in the Iriving recruitment and then go on to pretend to know what happened in the Irving recruitment. I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. |
