Re: Rashad Vaughn
Is there any chance Baylor doesn't get cut? I can't see why he would keep them around.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
Sure there is, he already had a previous official scheduled with them. RV is on record early in the summer BU was one of the first schools to offer him and he has good releationship with the staff for a long time. He almost sounded like he felt he owed them an OV. I'd lean towards them getting cut, but it isn't a lock.
IMO Right now the two teams are virtual locks, ISU and UNLV due to already taking officials to both. Other than that I would guess UNC, and two of UK, BU or KU.
I also wouldn't be suprised if he still has a + 1 option and says he'll "plan" on taking unofficial visits to Minny and/or Arizona.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
I hope Baylor stays on the list. They aren't as big of a player as the other options IMO

Re: Rashad Vaughn
I think that the lock are Iowa State because he seems to absolutely love us, UNC because he has an official visit set up there, and Kentucky, because it would have been pointless to add them just to cut them again a week later. I think KU stays along with UNLV. Getting cut would be Minnesota, Arizona, and Baylor.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
He might take an unofficial visit there if he goes back home to visit his family.
I've also thought Minnesota could land as an official visit just so they would pay for him to travel back home.
If he does cut Minny, my guess will be:
ISU
UNLV
UNC
Kentucky
Arizona
Still have a feeling he ends up with ISU.
This is my guess too.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
I understand he just a 18 year old kid, but he has been getting recruited since 8th grade yet has no idea where he wants to go to college. Majority of these schools he has been talking to for years. What else could you possibly wait on? You've been to Iowa State like 4 times now, have known Hoiberg for 3-4 years, have seen the facilities, you know who is on the roster, who is signed to play here next year etc.
I understand keeping UNC/UK around because you want to see what they lose roster wise. Otherwise, after these schools have spent years building relationships with you, making sale pitch after sale pitch, seeing the school in person, etc. why play it out till the last minute? Honestly confuses me. He probably knows where he wants to go, yet says he doesn't. Obviously enjoy the free trips and such, but I wish he would just commit. Playing 5 schools till the last possible day seems high maintenance to me. Matt Thomas and Monte both committed early because they had been here, knew Hoiberg, saw the facilities, built a relationship, etc.
Vaughn has every high major offer possible, what else is he waiting for? I imagine he is going to be dragging this recruitment out to the last minute and it'll be a random school that no one was expecting.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
He will keep Minny until the end when he picks the good guys. The locals are pressuring him to stay home and he wants them to feel they were in until the very end.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
That is what always struck me as odd. To me, the only reason to hold out as long as he is holding out would be the following 3 reasons. 1. He doesn't want to upset local schools if he is planning on leaving (Minnesota/UNLV), 2. He is waiting to see who declares for the draft at blue blood places like UK, UNC, KU, etc or 3. He wants to see what players he will essentially be playing with when he arrives. Take ISU for example, a lot of new faces and not sure who would step up (Thomas/Naz) and possible take minutes away next year (Unlikely). To me, it seems like he is enjoying the courting more than other players and also wants to see what happens with players at UNC and UK. Hope Im wrong.
Re: Rashad Vaughn
Did he say he was going to have a "+1" school?
I just assumed he was going to cut down to 5 schools so it would end speculation where he is taking his officials.
It's all but guaranteed UNC, ISU, UNLV, and UK are in his final 5. It just remains to be seen who the last school will be, though it will likely be Kansas.

Re: Rashad Vaughn
He said he would not take an official to minnesota but also said they would never be "cut" as long as there was a list they would be on it. So unless he only does 4 officials or uses minnesota as a free trip home, it is 5+1until after his officials.
