Yep. It's his 1st official visit. Could they close him while he's here? One can hope. Would be biggest outside of Memphis commitment since Will Barton? So 9 years, iirc.

Big things are about to happen

outside of Jeffries, I'd be surprised if this results in any other commitment. However, it is interesting that John Martin stated today there would be some other recruits there who are not publicly announced (he said he couldn't say who). I'm curious to know who that might be. Maybe some class of 2020 kids?

Sometimes you don't want to announce the recruits prior to them coming because you don't want someone, another coach, for example, talking them out of coming.

I suspect there will be a nice crowd of recruits, but who those recruits are probably won't be known by the fans until the next day. Guess I can wait that long:-)

I'd be willing to bet DJ commits within days after if not the next day.
Pretty sure RJ Hampton will be in attendance as well.

Looks like Alabama may be the next school involved in the FBI investigation. Wonder how that might impact their basketball recruiting going forward....

Bama has been involved since the FBI arrests were announced. Their Dobo, Kobie Baker, resigned.

Unfortunately, the schools involved seem to be doing pretty well. An Arizona assistant coach, Emmanuel Richardson, was one of the ones arrested last year. But Arizona just got another 5 star commitment, Josh Green, today, their second in the last month.

So far, recruits don't seem to care much.

awesome

thanks for sharing

love the pic!!!

Would love to get him and Wiseman on the same team!

Trendon gives an update on his recruitment and the timeline for a decision. He gives reasons for why he's deciding late; all fair reasons.

"The real reason that I am doing it is because I want to see a program like Memphis, this is their first year with that new team, and LSU, this is their first year with potential one-and-done players, and I feel like I need to watch them and see how it turns out. I need to weigh my options and you only have one chance at this thing, so why rush it?"

I'd love for him to come here, we seem to be high on his list, but it would be equally cool if he didn't see any room left for him by late signing period. Trendon Watford and Memphis sound perfect for each other.

They will make room for him. You can bet on that.

I think he wants to see us win some games vision how we look next year with him and all the other talent we should have. We’ve been down for so many years I think he just wants to see a team on the right path to make a final four with him on the roster.

That was my point. I think he'd be a great addition. My hope is that he will be deciding if there is room for him with current roster and recruits. That would mean our recruiting is already through the roof. Maybe he should go ahead and sign up.

That suggests he’s got maturity and patience. I like it.

So we need to beat LSU then hope they fall on their face the rest of the season.

He's also planning to visit Indiana and Florida State, so I think his timeline for a decision is still probably February.
