Pittman staying at Holmes

[Eta Rho]

Pittman will indeed be at Holmes next year and it was never in question whether or not he'd even leave.

 

I know it's been a hot topic on the recruiting trail lately, which has led to many discussing it, so I thought I'd put the rumors to rest about him heading to a top prep school next year. I spoke to not only the "source" but also several close to the source to confirm this.

Wow! I feel so much better now. What a relief.

[LRCW]

I'm not familiar with the situation. What prep schools were rumored to be possible destinations for him next year?

Glad he is staying at Holmes....I love to watch this kid play after watching him in the State Tourney last year.

I didn't hear any specific schools tied to the rumor...

As GT said, no specific schools were tied to the rumor, but many scouts and recruiters were projecting him at a prep school next year which rose the questions about whether or not he'd be at Holmes for his senior year.

Aren't you the one that initially said he would "enter college with the class of 2011"? That was the first I read of him possibly going to a prep school.

Yep, I found it:

All three have the grades. JJ and Rico will find nice D1 homes.   Pittman's grades are fine. It's just the question of whether or not he can get high enough or not on the ACT...which is why I said he'll find a nice D1 home, but it may be with the c/o 2011...and that doesn't mean he'd be playing at a JUCO.....

 

 

Then the obvious question was asked:

I posted it was a POSSIBILITY and OPTION. That's what scouts/recruiters were projecting, which is why I posted it at the time.

 

As I stated in my initial post, I spoke to the "source" and several close to the "source" which is why I decided to go ahead and post that the possibility of him going to prep school could be put to rest. I've had several ask me not only on here, but also scouts im friends with, about Pittman. Just wanted to clear some things up for the parties interested..

It's good to clear it up, we don't want false information out there about high school athletes.

Where did this rumor start?

I doubt it would be from college recruiters.

I'd ask Gametime...he also heard it from those involved on the recruiting trail..

[gametime]

Not sure where it started, but I have heard it several times in asking about Pittman over the last few months.

 

The people close to the area say no, and the people on a national level keep bringing it up...

[Dowork]

Good, hopefullly he can win Mr. Basketball, that would be sweet.

[Clyde]

I think this might have been a lot of smoke and probably didnt have much validity. I've heard the AAU coach was throwing this story out there.

 

Glad he'll finish as a Dog.
