Xavier Sneed status?

[Xville]

Here's his crystal ball for those into that kind of thing:

From that, it looks like we don't stand a chance. Has anyone heard which way the kid is leaning at all?

I'm not sure i'd put too much stock in that. It'd obviously be preferable to see a bunch of Xavier picks, but all but one pick happened today which leads me to believe guys might be throwing stuff at the wall.

I didn't see his visit to us reported anywhere publicly last week so some of those guys may not even know we got the last visit.

In semi-related news Taurean Thompson's crystal ball is at 91% Syracuse (10 of 11 picks) after his official this past weekend.

They hope they get it wrong with at least one of these two.

Syracuse has enough issues these days that recruits might not want to get into that can of worms. Plus slimeball coach Boeheim's days are numbered, I'm thinking.

They signed the #14 class in the country last year right in the middle of that investigation and this year they have a top 10 class so far.

Some programs couldn't withstand the negative press that would come with an investigation like that. Syracuse just isn't one of them.

Boeheim's days are, indeed, numbered. He already announced his retirement -- which will occur in 3 years. They've also announced his replacement: longtime assistant, Mike Hopkins. Hopkins is essentially the COO of the program; he's an integral part of the recruitment process. Boeheim's departure and Hopkins taking over won't even be a blip for most recruits. Hell, many probably prefer Hopkins...

Mike Hopkins will also have a dress rehearsal as head coach for 9 ACC games; that's the length of Jim Boeheim's suspension.

Looks like all the late money is coming in on Kansas State. We'll find out here in about an hour.

Sneed's family is playing this incredibly close to their chests, leading to what should be an exciting announcement, one way or another, simply because it's so unpredictable.

Before he visited, he announced he was announcing Monday. My guess is that he was already 99% but wanted to take an X visit anyways. Will be surprised if X marks the spot.
