    Why would we release him unless it was a character issue? It’s not that this class is real deep. Any news? It’s Wednesday.

    Well if he wanted released Xavier would release him even if X wanted to keep him. XU isn't in the business of forcing players to come there if they decide they dont want to even after signing. X isn't Nick Saban.

    It could have been though it was a mutual decision where he wanted to look around and X thought they would get some people better. Dunno.

    Maybe Kennedy was a reach. A project that may or may not be the kind of player that we’ve found success with. And the staff, back when they took his commitment felt that it was a safe move. New staff, different roster, and different recruit pipeline. He may have just been nudged out of the picture

    Well Beard at Texas Tech is going to be a good team. Kennedy still has good teams after him.

    Per 6 hours ago on his Twitter.......he has spoken with all 3 coaches involved and they understand that he is having a tough time making up his mind, decision still coming....

    I totally understand how this is such a hard decision. I appreciate that the coaches are being patient and hope that all of us can be too. Big decision that will have a big impact on the rest of his life. He wants to get it right.

    I'm retracting this statement.

    Yep this was a strange recruitment but based on some recent changes at X and missing out on Isabell it sounds like they might be open to Keonte now.
