The number of teams with scholies available for next year has to be pretty small.

He’s been committed to Pitt...

I’m not saying we will get him or even pursue anybody with the open spot. But as far as kids we have existing relationships with who have decommitted, he fits the bill.

We should ponder this for several nanoseconds before going after Golden frere.

The team plane could fly over Sharpsburg and we could parachute an assistant coach onto his campus to demonstrate our interest in Bryce.

Richmond offered as well, of course, and they don't need to parachute anyone in. They have an agent on the inside who doesn't have contact restrictions.

Bryce and Grant are brothers by the way. Do with this what you please.

I don't have a brother, but I'm guessing you either want to play with your brother or you don't. The first time he got to choose, he said, "no thank you."

On another note, I can't figure out how to post the screen cap of it, but the Richmond board has a great reaction to our recruitment of Luka.

Pitt fans' comments to the tweet sound world-weary. The one that made me smile: "Someone should just take this program out back and put it down."

Is JRich still an assistant coach at Pitt? He could put in a good word for us if Golden is truly gone, right?

Jason is their Director of Basketball Operations. That doesn't sound impressive, but if you go to Pitt's basketball website and click on "Coaches", he's the top person listed.

Maybe he could complete one of those conditional release forms and write something like, "Bryce Golden is released to Davidson and every program in the 48 contiguous states that does not have vowels in its name."

That narrows it down to Hawaii and us.

Agreed. I think Davidson could be top 25 without him. Adding him would make it more likely than not.

For some of the same reasons he may not want to play with his brother, he may not want to regularly play against him. Love to have Bryce, though.
