JuiceCruz16 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) Hope it's wrong, but I'm hearing that Kansas and UCLA have been notified by Barnes that he is not going to Lawrence or LA, and some AM radio station in LA has leaked that he said he is a headed to DUKE. Who knows, but I do think he has been Dukes to lose for awhile. An official welcome to the Carolina family to Mr. Reggie Bullock yesterday and Mr. Kendall Marshall today, though.

If the leak is true, Duke is going to be ridiculous next year. They finally got a PG in Irving, Curry is coming in, plus Barnes? Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 So, basically, no one has any clue where he's going, with people absolutely sure he's a Blue Devil, a Tar Heel, and a Cyclone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely nobody knows, and I have never seen a recruitment like this. Barnes and his family have been the ultimate professionals in the recruiting game.

It does seem like Bill Self knows he is not headed to Kansas, though. He made some quotes in the paper about how he would watch the announcement if he thought he had a chance. Sounds like Harrision did give him the thanks but no thanks call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll rely on the threes and some transition baskets, but when it gets down to a half court game they're going to get crushed on the inside...as they always do.

ESPN not even listing Iowa State as an option. Not sure if that is their big program biased or they know something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuiceCruz16 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Yes, its the TARHEELS!!!!!!!! Roy is amazing he made up tons of ground to beat out Duke. Harrison was very well spoken, and it is a great to see he chose to be part of the Carolina family. Welcome to Blue Heaven Mr. Barnes!!!!!!!!!!!

Did they drop that Williams kid for him? I didn't read much into all that, but it seemed kind of strange him not signing last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah, it came out last week Williams wouldn't be signing with IU. I wasn't too worried about it, nor that surprised. The whole thing was kind of odd -- it was absolutely out of nowhere when he committed, and then I barely heard anything about him for a few months, then I heard he had decommitted.

Yep, the Sheehey kid seems like a stretch as well, solid role player who can shoot it fairly well. Not a very big get for IU, but he does have a bit of upside I guess.

farmteam Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 From what I've read he's a late bloomer, and can probably be a solid starter by his junior year. At the very least, I'm happier with him than Williams, so I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuiceCruz16 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Tobias Harris to annoumce today. Down to final 7, and he claims to have made his final decision last night. My guess is he is going to choose Syracuse, but this is just a total guess on my part. Edited November 19, 2009 by JuiceCruz16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're probably right, unfortunately. Though I'm still holding out hope b/c Tobias was at the Tennessee game last night. Bought his own ticket and sat in the upper deck so he could try to watch the game as a normal person and just enjoy the atmosphere without people being all over him.

That was just for his visit, but it was pretty awesome. And Harris says he signed with the Vols! Great get for a program like ours! http://www.govolsxtra.com/news/2009/nov/19...as-signed-vols/ Oh, and here's a link to that picture of the Rock that Juice was referring to... http://www.volnation.com/forum/attachment....mp;d=1255107767 Edited November 20, 2009 by dasox24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
