No reason to delay at this point unless there is a basic disagreement between the kid and his family / handlers. This scares the shit out of me. Delays, at this point are not in our favor.

Delays happen with just about every recruit.  Case in point, a certain guard from Italy.  Delays are neither good nor bad for us.  Most of us expect this "delay" to be beneficial to the entire SJU BB program for years to come.

The best quote I read from Mr. Ponds was he knows that Coach Mullin is making him the premier recruit for 2016. That says volumes as to what his choice could be.

So what, in your opinion, are we to make of that.

So what is the delay about ? Waiting for the fall equinox, the Pope's visit, for pigs to fly ? Do you really feel this delay is not hurting our chances ?

Like the Mussini situation, sometimes you have to be patient. Go assume the worst. It seems something you are committed to. :)

Paultz is the zen yoga master of recruiting. Quite, introspective, logical. We are lucky to have him pull people off the ledge.

When something that is supposed to happen doesn't, within a reasonable time frame, that has been the recipe for disaster for us. Most if not all of us would've assumed this would be over by now.  Mussini had to decide if he was going to play in Europe. Understandable. Ponds is different. There are no more visits to make. No more information to be gathered. Just not feeling very good about this.

It has to be Friday right? Aren't schools closed today and tomorrow? So if it's this week like people are saying then he will pop for hopefully SJU.
