Saw that Negus Webster-Chan opened his recruitment back up. We were recruiting him before, wonder what our chances are now.

Sounds like there may be some trouble brewing in the Louisville camp.:shocked:

Major trouble. If you want a good laugh, go read their scout board. Talk about meltdown city.

Go get him TJ!

I suppppppose I'd be ok with us taking a nationally ranked, skilled 6-8 small forward.

Not to side-track the conversation and without having to read Louisville boards...what are the problems with Louisville? Unfulfilled expectations?

 

[CycloneErik]

Would this be enough like a transfer for us to make it work?

Personally I'd rather see him go somewhere else for a couple years to really develop his skills then transfer here.

 

[Cyforce]

is he 2011 or 2012?

Sign him up, can't get enough 6'7" studs

"@DaveTelep Negus Webster-Chan. De-committed from Louisville. Will take a spin around college hoops, take 5 visits, slow process down"

I wonder if we'll get one of those visits?

He's a point guard if my memory serves me correctly.

I think Mizzou might be in the hunt for this kid. I heard on KC radio last week an interview with a Louisville guy about one of the assistants Haith had just hired away from Pitino. I can not remember his name but he was the lead recruiter on Webster-Chan. Hopefully TJ can win the battle this time around.

Listed as Small Forward/"swingman", 6'6" is a big point guard:smile:

I believe you are right. His primary recruiter just left Louisville, and I'm pretty sure he did go to Missouri.

Quote from Chan,

“I just didn’t feel comfortable with all of the changes at Louisville,â€￾ he told Alex Kline of The Recruit Scoop. “I had a great relationship with Coach [Mark] Lieberman and with his new role [as Director of Basketball Operations], I just didn’t feel like it was the best fit for me. I appreciate all of the Louisville fans that have showed their support for me and hope they understand.
“I will always be a Card fan because of my bro Gorgui [Dieng].â€￾

I don't see why we should have to waste our time developing players when there are plenty of other schools willing to do that for us.

Chan was a point guard at one point. I think he is projected as a small forward in college. So yes that was one thing that is attracting everyone to him. The fact that he has point guard skills at the 3. Kind of a Scottie Pippen type player. Not as good as Pip. Just a reference point.
