ND just got another 4 star 2018 guard, fwiw

Well if ND wasn't out before, they will be now.  Several guards in last month or so.  They're smart as the committed guy always better than the uncommitted guy.  At this point, unless we see some Ohio State movement, we have to be in better than good shape.

He could always add schools.

Doubt it.  He could have added schools all along.

It's happened before. See above post for new offer. Not saying he is considering them but you never know. If we were truly his last option wouldn't he just commit? I'm sure he can have plenty of other options. Look I hope we get him but it's not like the process of elimination hasn't bit us in the arse before. Just when we look like the last one standing kid opens up recruitment to others.

OSU just released a freshman guard from his schollie and parted ways another frosh. They only have 8 scholarship players and a walk on as of today. Luther doesnt help their situation this season but you have to think they want to get some recruiting momentum.

I just doubt it at this point.  We've been recruiting him heavily for 2 years.  His other favorite just landed 3 top notch guards.  He has a relationship with Holtman, but I doubt he start adding schools.  He had prior said he wants to commit this summer.

Zags says he will be visiting OSU....in the Fall.

IF it gets that far...  that's a long time from now. 

Per Zags:

Syracuse 3 deep with Jim Boeheim for 2018 @NYRhoops G @Ege_Luther at the PIT

Seton Hall and St. John's also here.

Zags says he will be visiting OSU....in the Fall.

They probably will take him to a football game. I'm sure Holtmann will have fun using that in recruiting now.

Doesn't sound like we will get an early commitment from Luther or Little. I know nothing but obviously the longer these drag on the worse it would be for us, especially with Little since it's very hard to say no to the Dukes Kansases and Arizonas of the world for St. John's.

Sweating recruiting is brutal

I don't like a trip to OSU in the fall to watch a football game. Especially since he already has a good relationship with the coach. As time goes on our chances will decrease.

Smart kid. When asked about the fact that Mullin and Richmond played in the NBA he said at the end of the day it is about coaching and making people better. Hopefully he holds our coaches in high regard concerning those two considerations.

@JKimElevate 4 Luther Muhammad tells me that he will take an official visit to #Xavier on 9/15-17. Plans to also visit Ohio State & Syracuse.

St John's expected this. Still very confident about chances #sjubb

Personally still doubtful those visits ever happen.  They are months away if at all...  I hope/think we can land him this August when he intended to commit....

If he surprisingly goes elsewhere, do we have a plan B at HS level in this class ?

I don't feel this goes into late Fall, end of September or very early October is my sense.

Paultz just wondering why you say it won't go into the fall? has anything been said by his camp? just curious

No, just what I hear.

Wanted to go to ND, sat on the shitter too long, now taking a look around to make sure that sjubb is the right fit.  tO$U on a football weekend is dangerous for any recruit.
