I'm thinking this Twitter account is throwing **** against the wall. Doren hasn't made any reclass announcement as far as I know and in fact, has said he would make that decision, yes or no, after Peach Jam... And nothing else on where he's going post High School.

I'm thinking you don't look hard enough. Travis Graf is the Rivals scouting analyst for Kentucky and Louisville. Bryan Moss runs the Memphis Rivals website.

Both have put in 'futurecast' predictions for Memphis. It's public if you have a Rivals subscription.

It's public in the Daily Memphian now, too:

Duren was already high on Memphis before the Tigers added Brown to the staff, and Brown’s hiring only improves their chances of landing the 6-foot-10 center.

Multiple analysts from Rivals logged FutureCast picks Thursday, July 8, for Duren to commit to Memphis. The Tigers could continue to build momentum on that front after Brown’s visit.

Another Rivals recruiting analyst I can't name also said privately that he thinks it's Duren to Memphis. I do agree that M-Town is likely just a recruiting groupie, but those other guys aren't.

As for there being no word on Duren reclassifying, again you are incorrect. Zagoria reported a month ago that Duren is expected to reclassify. Giannotto retweeted it, and noted that Penny said likely no more transfers, but maybe a reclass, and MG mentioned Duren as perhaps being that target.

And of course Duren is going to extend the suspense until his formal announcement sometime after Peach Jam, to generate more PR and build his brand, like they all do these days.

So. The guy is throwing **** against the wall. He doesn't know to the extent he claims when he uses absolute language --- saying Duren "will" commit to Memphis and he "will" reclassify. Implying that he has some sort of special knowledge that's not available to the rest of us... all he's really doing is making an educated guess and if and when it actually happens he'll pin the tweet at the top. Otherwise forget it. Those guys are all over the internet and all over Twitter.
