UCLA has a ton of talent. Talent isn't the problem. It's Howland.

He has the wrong collection of talent.  I've said it before.  He has tons of bigs but not enough balance.  Not enough backcourt prowess, team speed.  Can win big with more than half your team being big men.  They are tremendously slow overall.  Certainly some real talent there, but the wrong mix of talent.

FWIW, educated guess is this recruitment ends shortly.

People on twitter are saying he is announcing today.  No clue if its true or not.  But I'd still be shocked if it wasn't Temple .

Heard today also & not happy with outcome voiced. That said, Lawrence is the big deal, and like Moose, like our chances.

Can he still sign or just verbal?

 Pretty sure the signing date has passed and he can only verbal at this point.

Looks like today is last day.

Would of loved to get him, but with Phil, Jamal here for another 2 yrs we have time to explore other options. Hope we land Lawerence.

Why?

FWIW-Looks like Kamal Yard told Zags he has no plans to commit today and so after today he cannot sign an NLI until April.

I dont think we land him but its only based on my own thoughts. We do have a legitimate shot though.

With so much chaos going on, it would make sense for any SJU recruit to wait until spring and see how everything shapes up before signing a LOI.

Rysheed has always said he would sign in Spring.

Also as much uncertainty as STJ has Temple has just as much, maybe even more.  So considering those are his final 2 schools, yes Spring makes all the sense in the world.

UCLA boards are reporting today that Rysheed has rescheduled his missed October "official" vist to Westwood for this coming weekend.

So after Yard has said proximity matters and that UCLA because of distance was not really an option he is still going to visit?
