Back to Rysheed, UCLA offering a Juco PG yesterday isn't even being talked about. Must be promising, no?
Dont really think it matters. How ever maybe if Emmanuel Owootoah commits to them along with the juco that will create a log jam and push him away from UCLA. Just a thought
Don't think so. Kyle's dad has been interviewd on the Bruin Scout page (also posts in their forums) and has indicated there's a 50/50 chance Kyle leaves - The Bruins are looking to bring in TWO pgs in this class. They were targeting one in this class, with Kyle backing him, and bringing in Parker Jackson Cartwright in the 2014 class. but PJC committed to Arizona. Their next "target" is 2015 Marcus Lovett Jr. A two year JC kid would be the perfect solution to the 2nd PG issue. They think Rysheed is a 2 year player as well.
Of course, all recruiting is a crapshoot. Matthieu (the JC) could end up the ONLY pg on the roster next year, with Combo frosh Zach Lavine and Allerick Freeman playing there as well. There's also a rumor of a 4th prospect in this class. A formerly highly rated LA area PG who's fallen off the radar, as he grew from 5'11 to 6'5, and transferred schools, and ended up having to sit out his senior year - that's per a Yahoo/Rivals report.
I trust Dave and his sources, and if he says Sheed is now a UCLA lean, it's likely true. But that doesn't mean he WON'T end up in a St. Johns uniform. The only thing I've been able to glean from this kid is that he hasn't wavered in the last 2 months on who the "final 3" are. My guess jis, as one of the couple top ranked prospects still undeclared, he's waiting for the ESPNU Signing Day show to announce Live, ala Shabazz and Noel last year.
