He RT's lots of stuff though I flat out don't believe a word Cliff says on twitter, he does a lot of the things he does for hype/attention (who can blame him, he's trying to get recognized for when he's getting drafted). And I'm pretty sure the Lyle to Illinois ship has sailed. I think Groce goes hard for Cliff but beyond that he's done for 2014 unless something really unexpected happens. I really wanted Lyle before because he is a special talent and I was willing to make the risk of his personality for his skillset/get up noticed in recruiting, but now that we have Black and Snider committed he's not nearly as needed position wise or news wise. If KU wants both of them, all the power to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 It is weird being in this position but with Snider on board I would just say no thanks to Lyle. We are in a position where we should be really good starting next year even if you don't anyone else. I'd prefer not to deal with Lyle who could be Jereme Richmond part II and I've heard he may have a hard time qualifying anyways. Not to mention that there are rumors that Illinois backed off of Lyle to begin with (not saying he would have gone to Illinois anyways) because of his attitude and off court issues.

It sounds like Lyle might not even get an offer from KU. Him and Cliff were saying that he they were going to visit KU for late night together, but Eric Bossi tweeted a few days ago, "I know it has been reported that Lyle will visit for Late Night in the Phog because he has told people that. From what I have been told, there has been NO visit set with Lyle." Arizona said they weren't recruiting him. Seems like lots of teams aren't big on him. Also, Isaiah Whitehead will announce today.

He_Gawn Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Well according to every recruiting analyst in the country, Whiteheads recruitment just got extremely shady. Tiny Morton looks to have finally found a college job. Good work Seton Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson lives in the same neighborhood as Johnson and they've talked plenty about a "package deal". He's visiting for Hoosier Hysteria next weekend and Johnson will be coming with him. Still seems Indiana is the team to beat for Goodluck, with UNLV and OSU knocking on the door. Should be another top ten class for Indiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenksismyhero Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Pretty sure he's said if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. Hopefully Black/Snider continue to recruit him down to Illinois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigruss Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I personally believe it's going to be KU or Depaul. I assume Depaul would do anything to get Cliff there, and Lyle is burning a lot of bridges. KU may or may not offer Lyle, but they have Cliff's attention in a big way. Illinois probably comes in third only because of Groce and Cliff's family loving him compared to other coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatnom Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I'd be surprised if Lyle ended up at the same school as Cliff, to be honest. Lyle's got some issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yeah I'm not really sure where they'd go together. From Cliff's list, he can't go to Illinois or Kansas and I doubt MSU will take him then. Don't think Cliff is seriously considering Arizona or Memphis. That leaves DePaul, but why would Lyle want to go there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I interact with Big Cliff on somewhat of a regular basis and will try my darnedest to convince him to go to DePaul...definitely not holding my breath though :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I'd love to see one of the Chicago schools get back on the map for college basketball. DePaul probably has the best shot, as small as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
