This is a big factor no one is really talking about. Coaches won't know how many scholarships they officially have until late May after NBA evals. Makes late season recruiting kinda tough.
Welp, does anyone know if the bridge is burned between him and Fran? Of course, he could just follow Pastner to GT.
Pretty sure the common practice is when a coach leaves, the school will let the player out of the NLI. But that has to happen before any other coach can contact them. So Memphis's new coach will have first stab at him.
I don't recall hearing anything terrible had happened there. Would still be a freshman PG along with Williams and Bohanon instead of someone with experience, but he is the quick guard we've been looking for. I would love to see him end up at Iowa.
Unless they've changed the rule -- which is quite possible -- even if the player is released from a NLI, he/she loses a year of eligiblity for transferring.
It's no secret that the Badgers have been looking for a '16 point guard to back up Bronson.Apparently didn't sign an NLI. Has already decommitted. First school to contact him.....Wisconsin
Id put money on Charlie not going to Wisonsin. He knows he'd be behind Bronson and a recruit like Charlie expects to start from day one.
Then they changed the rule.....although it might have happened several years ago. It's been more than a decade since I paid attention to it. The rule was that if a student who had signed an NLI lost two years' eliibility if the school didn't release him and 1 year even if it did.
I wouldn't put money on the decision of any seventeen year old.
My memory is a bit fuzzy, but as I recall it we were pretty high on him and he on Iowa. Then he had his dad's health issue come up prior to visits being scheduled. During that time both Iowa and Illinois moved on. Illinois added a commit and Iowa had zeroed in on Bohanon. Although I don't think he committed before Moore started opening up his recruitment again, we had pretty much moved on from what I recall. There is also talk of him having some handlers that may have swayed Iowa to let ways. Reading between the lines I always took it as Charlie was going about his recruiting and then someone stepped in while his father fell ill and at that point the ballgame changed. I'm probably misremembering 90% of that so take it with a grain of salt.
You are wrong clone. If a recruit has not enrolled in classes he will be immediately eligible if he's released by the school he signed with. The releasing school can make him sit a year at set institutions. Iowa fans know this because Brust signed with Iowa, Lickliter left, Iowa eventually released him with no stipulations, and he played his first season at Wisconsin. There are plenty of articles if you need confirmation.
Basabe also got his release from Siena when Fran came to Iowa. Per a tweet I read Moore signed a conditional LOI allowing release, if Pasnor left, so he may not even need the school to release him from his LOI.
Perhaps you did not read my post. In addition to pointing out that I could be wrong, I specifically said I think the rule might have been changed, as my last experience with stories about it was more than 10 years ago.
