April 10, 200719 yr Must be 6'11'':laugh: That is between 6-10 and 7', so I think we should go with 6-11.:thumb:
April 10, 200719 yr Has the kid talked to the new coach. Once Billy signed on at UK, he could no longer have contact with his players? Right? :confused:
April 10, 200719 yr Coach Crum and Hall both said it would be extremely unethical for Gillispie to allow Jordan to follow him to UK. I tend to agree with that sentiment, and it would give me a sour taste towards a great coach.

April 10, 200719 yr Because that kid signed with A & M...and Gillispie recruited him to A & M....doing the same now is very shady in my opinion.

I tend to agree with that sentiment, and it would give me a sour taste towards a great coach.Not very often that I do, but I completely disagree with you. And them. We are two of the biggest supporters of the theory of trying to make the UK faithful realize that times have changed. This is one of the things that has changed I believe. Players no longer go to a "program" they are going for a coach, or a system. A system that will allow them to showcase their game. If that coach leaves I think they should have every right to follow said coach.
April 10, 200719 yr I think the kid was recruited by Gillispie and wants to play for him. I think it is unfair that when a coach leaves after he has recruited players they expect them to honor their LOI. As long as Gillispie is not calling him every day then I think it is not unethical. Jordan should do what is right for Jordan, and if playing for Gillispie is what he wanted then that is what he should do. It is his future to decide.
April 10, 200719 yr ^ I agree that they do sign with their coach...however...as a school, or a coach, I would make it clearly evident that they are signed with the SCHOOL...it is a risk in signing in the early signing period....and one could get burned.
April 10, 200719 yr ^What's the difference if a kid wants out of his loi or the University pulls their offer?
April 10, 200719 yr Jordan should do what is right for Jordan, and if playing for Gillispie is what he wanted then that is what he should do. It is his future to decide. I agree 100%....BUT in that I think that he should pay the penalty he KNEW was possible when he signed his LOI.
April 10, 200719 yr it is a risk in signing in the early signing period....and one could get burned.What if he signed last week?
April 10, 200719 yr ^What's the difference if a kid wants out of his loi or the University pulls their offer? If they have already signed an LOI...they get the scholly, I believe..it can not be pulled at that time.
April 10, 200719 yr What if he signed last week? Today is the first day of the late signing period.....that's why on here, I would personally verbal and then sign once all the coaching carousel is finalized....Jai Lucas and Patrick Patterson know exactly where everyone will be coaching simply because they have waited.
