March 27, 200719 yr If a contract has not been signed, but verbally agreed upon and the UF president said it was O.K. (as he said in an earlier interview) to talk to Billy D. (He said it was something the coach needed to listen to), I don't really see what kind of rule(s) could have been broken.... :thumb: Im not saying there has been by any means...I just HOPE that there hasn't...You never know with this kind of thing. Like I said, I don't know of any rules that would have been broken by this, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was one...
March 27, 200719 yr Nick Calathes said he would... Whether or not UF agrees with him is another story... What position is he, is he a center by chance? Because it should would be nice if he was, because we need one now...
March 27, 200719 yr Author Has the kid already signed with Fla.? NCAA pretty much looks at it as you sign with a school, not the coach.

March 27, 200719 yr What position is he, is he a center by chance? Because it should would be nice if he was, because we need one now... He's a shooting guard...
March 27, 200719 yr I agree with you Deuce I don't think it was smart if it's true to give Florida a chance to up the ante. As for recruiting, I'm not even going to start to get into that argument. If you are worried about kids coming to UK with Donnovan at UK then that's fine. I'm not worried about it. I guess they could lose them to Tubby in Minnesota but I'll take my chances with Billy D and KY any day vs that scenerio.
March 27, 200719 yr He's a shooting guard... Thanks! Hopefully he is a guard that can shoot and score consistently if he came here...
March 27, 200719 yr Author Can a contract be signed into effect starting April 3 at this time? Seems like Michigan had a coach that accepted a job before the tourney one year and got dismissed during the tournament. Was a contract already signed then?

I guess they could lose them to Tubby in Minnesota but I'll take my chances with Billy D and KY any day vs that scenerio. Its not that, what do you get. The end of the signing period is in April!!! So it would be better to already have a deal pretty much done as soon as the season was over, so he could try to make sure he got those kids in time. Its not worth taking the chance to only having a couple of days to try to get it done. I mean no one is questioning how he recruit every year, but as for the next season, it is important to get him here as soon as possible before the end of the signing period. Its really not that hard to understand...
March 27, 200719 yr WLEX is smart in citing that this is Bird's baby... Methinks they probably threw the Catspause name out a lot when reporting this on TV.

You'd think they'd almost have to...WAYYY too risky IMO to put something like this on air, especially when there is no real confirmation yet from Florida or Donovan at this point...
