Update from The Twitter. I am somewhat jokingly posting this, but I think it is somewhat cryptic in it's meaning. I'm not the type of guy to usually dissect recruits Tweets, but here I am, and I think that means he will be committing in the early period. To whom, I don't know. Permission to make fun of me if I'm wrong.:)



You could take that as UNC now getting back into it with Stokes because they missed on the two Forwards recently.

My sources said that there is a 99.9% chance Stokes drags this out for awhile. Doesn't sound like he will be committing early. I think he wants to see kinda what happens at UNC and he wants to see how the teams recruiting him perform this season

Disappointing from the Fans perspective if he does wait to sign, but probably a smart move by Stokes. If there is any doubt about where he wants to end up there isn't much of a downside to waiting until the spring to gather more information and see what the teams look like. I am actually surprised more players don't wait and make sure they are all in.

Personally I'd wait or silent commit just to see some great games for free.

Happened yesterday, but yes, positive for us that he didn't go to KU

Glad he decided to stay near home and won't be playing for KU and against ISU 2X.
The KU message board is pretty funny right now as they are upset with Self's lack of Fall commits. Obviously they are fine, landing Garrett and having Malik Newmen eligible next year.

I know a lot of you don't like comps, but he reminds a little of Tyray Pearson for some reason.

He reminds me of Darien Williams the kid from Iowa Western that Fred landed but he sat out and then followed Matt A to St Johns, Williams was a bit bigger but their games are almost identical.

I hope he is better because Williams has done next to nothing at St. Johns, who is terrible.

Crazy about Williams at St. Johns, that was supposed to be a huge pick up for us and so far he's only getting 4 min a game for a bad team. I dont know much about shoulder surgeries but it seems like it shouldnt have made him that bad so quickly.
