Thread: Noel Johnson?

  1. #151
    Looking at his list, I would feel comfortable saying none of them, besides the possibility of Weatherspoon, are coming to X. Just a general feeling with no inside sources.

    No, I don't. I know(as many people do) that Kelsey was the reason he was going to visit. Not sure if the staff decided against it or Johnson's party. I do know that this past Tuesday I was told that Johnson and Lamont Jones were considering visiting Arizona, and that it came out of nowhere. Not sure if it happened or if it was made public. Apparently it was originally thought that USC would not release these guys to a Pac-10 school, but given the circumstances, they might have no choice.

    WTF?

    Is every single recruit that has an interest in Xavier, or vice versa, all of a sudden becomes a target for Arizona?

    Nah; Sean would never ever go after our recruits. He said so when he bolted, and I believe everything he says.

    There is an article on Rivals about Johnson. Apparently, now he's going to visit Clemson in the next couple of days and then LSU. After that, he will decide between UNLV, Clemson, LSU, and Florida International.

    Here is one sentence from the article that probably explains why Xavier decided to cancel the visit.

    The 6-foot-7, 200-pounder said he's being recruited to mostly play the two by his remaining contenders, but could play some three or one, too.

    Looks like he wants to play in the backcourt, and obviously we need help in the frontcourt at the 3/4 positions. He probably didn't like that idea and neither did Xavier.

    Yeah, and by XU canceling the visit before it even started, I'm also led to believe that Noel and Cheese were pretty particular in what they wanted, with this position business being just one of those demands. Seemingly doesn't fit with the Xavier philosophy.
