For more on this developing situation, we go live to Philadelphia......
Here I was thinking Kriisa would be a controversial topic to keep us going this summer...
I think the OP was also referring to this players disciplinary issues with his coaching staff?Thanks for that. If you read the article he was found “not responsible” following a Title IX hearing. I obviously don’t know the facts, but sounds like neither do you. I assume the staff will do their due diligence, but I would be reluctant to impugn a kid’s character without any information.
Thanks Dave. Do you sense Smith still a possibility or prob not at this point?first time we're being attached to him...my guess SJU casting wide net at PG...but this isn't something SJU is going full boar at.
Full attention on the 2 big names in Kadary and Norchad.
He was involved with an underage girl. No thanks.
I don’t know about all that. The kid may be an absolute no go. I trust the staff will do its due diligence. But based on the article, it seems like there was no evidence supporting the girl’s accusations.I think the OP was also referring to this players disciplinary issues with his coaching staff?
It seems we wouldn't be too attractive a landing spot for D. Smith if we get Kadary and it'd be his ball. Looks like one or the other to me, with Kadary looking like the favorite.I’m sure Kadary wants to be the primary ball handler and he will have his choice of where to go do so.
So maybe a bit more? But it’s still gonna be his ball
Kentucky visit scares me a bit. My intel is telling me he's third in the pecking order with the 2 other names listed.Dave, any reason Smith isn't listed in the names to watch?
Absolutely still a possibility.Thanks Dave. Do you sense Smith still a possibility or prob not at this point?
Without any inside info, my guess is that staff would probably prefer Smith, but Kadary is more likely and we take whichever we can land first. The whole bird in a hand is better than two in a bush thing.It seems we wouldn't be too attractive a landing spot for D. Smith if we get Kadary and it'd be his ball. Looks like one or the other to me, with Kadary looking like the favorite.
Maybe I read it wrong but I thought the bit about slacking at practice and clashing with his coach was a reference to Kadary not Pop Isaac.I was saying to stay away from him not just cause of the allegations with the underage girl but also the discipline issues with his coaching staff just sounds like a kid with a lot of disciplinary issues.
I thought I read somewhere that the Kentucky visit was off. Fake news?Kentucky visit scares me a bit. My intel is telling me he's third in the pecking order with the 2 other names listed.
I love Smith and would be over the moon if we get him. Just my sense. I know they love him and are trying to get him on campus still. He's insanely talented.
Rumblings about transcript issues on their boards but nothing 100% yet...I thought I read somewhere that the Kentucky visit was off. Fake news?
No, but I also certainly don’t let others actions dictate the way I act or feel.I don't feel bad for anyone, when it happens to us do you think fans of other schools will feel bad for us?
Or it's the opposite and we know we aren't getting Smith, so Kadary popped in.I just don't see a world where Kadary and Smith are both here. They don't complement each other at all. Perhaps I'm looking too much into it but the staff still pursuing Smith hard makes me think perhaps Kadary isn't the foregone conclusion many believe. Unless the staff is just covering their bases in case the Kadary situation plays out like Cliff did.
I believe it's still happening. Saw something that they aren't so confident landing him just now? Who knowsI thought I read somewhere that the Kentucky visit was off. Fake news?
I don’t think we have the $ for both regardless. If there’s anything we’ve learned during this crazy portal season, it’s that nothing is a foregone conclusion until the player signs. And even then . . .I just don't see a world where Kadary and Smith are both here. They don't complement each other at all. Perhaps I'm looking too much into it but the staff still pursuing Smith hard makes me think perhaps Kadary isn't the foregone conclusion many believe.

Gotta feel badly for a good program and HC because of Nil$ issues these crazy days. This used to be and was us very recently, until Rick and Repole rode in from the dust against a blue sky, lol.It's just the nature of the beast right now.
Hopefully congress steps in and puts a stop to this bs.
Until then, it's survival of the strong.
I don't feel bad for anyone, when it happens to us do you think fans of other schools will feel bad for us? Hellz no.
So I'll gladly take Kadary, and not feel bad for Holloway.
As good as Kadary is, I much prefer D. Smith. Just think he'd make our games electric.I believe it's still happening. Saw something that they aren't so confident landing him just now? Who knows
