Jeff - Any idea how Hugs & Co. feel about Weiser telling them who they can and can't recruit?  I can't see that sitting well with them. 

Someone should probably remind Weiser that it's only a coup to get Huggins to KSU if we can keep him here.

I think you pick your spots. I don't think they've been all hot and bothered over Tyree, but I think they wouldn't mind having him if he wasn't going to be a headache. Right now, who knows what he is?

I don't think Huggins and his staff would fight this one because they understand what the hold-up is.

Jeffry, If you are doing a story for next week you should go back and look at WSU when Smithson was the coach and Maurice Evans was on the team. Maurice was a top 100 recruit and Smithson attempted to make him carry an other wise fairly untalented team. Im my opinion Smithson ran him off by blaming Evans for losses. It's hard to score when the opponent only has to guard  one player. Needless to say Maurice transfered to another school with a little more talent. When Smithson played he wasn't a natural talent. I think he has a problem with those that are.  Anyway Tyree may have not been the problem. If I heard right didn't Smithson take a leave of absense this year and then deceide to quit coaching after this year? Looks to my like history may have repeated it'self in Tryee case.  :popcorn:

Spoke with Tyree today. He was in Lawrence over the weekend. He is buddies with Brandon Rush. Want to know if Tyree is being recruited by ku? Well, it's news to Tyree. He said  Rush was the first to mention something to him about it this weekend, which means, yes, Brandon Rush visits message boards. As for K-State, the assistants are still contact, but so is Maryland. He's worried about Smithson telling too many schools (and athletic directors - and you know who I'm talking about) he's not coachable. Anyway, plenty of schools are still interested. Plenty.

Hope this helps. Story coming next week...

Wonder if this was how Rush found out he was a dead-beat dad...

"these are no longer “games” in the commonly accepted sense of the term. these are free throw shooting contests leavened by the occasional sprint to the other end of the floor."

J-Mart shoots down the shockernet dude rumor.

Quote
Which way, Tyree? -- He doesn't think he'll be reinstated to the Butler basketball team, and that's fine by Tyree Evans.

The future is more important than the present.

Evans remains a Division I prospect, and judging from the schools in contact with him, a coveted prospect. He remains interested in K-State, and Evans said he still communicates with members of the coaching staff.

But other schools have entered the conversation, notably Maryland.

"They're on me hard," Evans said.

Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel coached at VCU, which is located in Evans' hometown of Richmond, Va. The Sooners are now in pursuit of the 6-foot-3 shooting guard, as are Tennessee, Florida State and Georgetown.

Seeing Tyree at OU would hurt.

It could be that beating out OU for Gilson, Marques and Fred is coming back to bite us.  The kurse of Kelvin if you will.  :(
