Pretty sure the visit doesn't end until this evening because he arrived late on Saturday.  Zags tweeted yesterday that Remi said the visit was going "Real Good".  Exciting time as we await his final answer.

Rob Thomas and Paris are the old men.

Some people have nothing better to do.  College ball has more than its share of guys who took an extra yr of HS and a prep year to get qualified.  And this kid is foreign, so some things may not transfer, slowing him down.

As long as he can ball, I don't care if he's 26.

A kid I grew up playing soccer and basketball with had the same birthday as me but a year younger. He was 2 grades behind me. He got drafted to the NFL this year. Certainly worked out in his favor to develop more physically. Who cares? Honestly it benefits them to do this so why not.

Most finishing HS seniors turned 18 in 2010. He would be only 1 year older.
Not uncommon with him changing HS 2X

Agreed.  Not a big deal. Second half of the year birthdays are typically caught in between school years.  Too old for one... too young for the other.

Not sure who was questioning the ages for Jb,Paris and Hardy but that never should be an issue. I remember a few people questioning about Rob Thomas' age etc and even that shouldnt be an issue. Some of these kids are a year or 2 behind on purpose for their own physical development and some are a year or 2 behind because their schools sucked or they didnt have the proper support at home or at school

If they they werent basketball players and just students age wouldnt be an issue to go to college so no one should be saying anything about a kid who might be a year or 2 older.

Remi Barry arrived on the campus of St. John's on Saturday and the Red Storm went all out to woo the forward. If St. John's gets the French national it will be a coup' for the program.

Move over Mariano Rivera...Steve Lavin is the best closer in New York. Keep your fingers crossed that everything with the clearinghouse goes through. If I have something more concrete to give I will but everything as of now that I hear points to red and white.

kids never wanted to take that plunge and be the first top recruits to st johns...now with the staff i guess they have something concrete to believe in...if we get barry on top of polee, and we make the tourny this year and upset a few teams, this will truly be the year everything turns around and we see a top 5 class for next year

Couple of posters on the UCLA board think he's coming to St. John's.  Apparently when a recruit decides to go somewhere else they quite often play the "he wouldn't qualify here" card to save face.  Y

"yes, sorry i wasnt more clear on that point, but that is my understanding, certain local media notwithstanding--the issue is NOT his grades...he just likes new york city"

but when he asked about it he wasnt that adamant that he was going to qualify either...im forgetting the article, so hopefully someone can help me here but he either said he and his coaches "hoped" he would qualify, or that he and his coaches "thought" he would qualify...but either way if his grades were definitely in order you would think he would  just say that

Here it is...

"As for concerns about whether he’ll be eligible, Barry insists he will.

“I really hope so,” he said. “They [my coaches] hope so, too. We all hope so. No one knows but the NCAA. Hopefully the NCAA will clear me.”"

After what he called an “amazing” 48-hour official visit to St. John’s, Remi Barry says he will make a college decision “maybe like next week.”

Yes, that is the word....  Barry is supposedly gonna pull the trigger this week.  Hopefully, he does pull the trigger and the place of target is St. John's.
