No, that’s a listing of the people in the class. Zero reference to the fact that the class was top 10 if not top 5 in the nation. Coach Hall recruited in probably the best class he’s had since Mark Tex.

The announcement for Tobias Harris has been set for 6 p.m. and will be televised on ESPNU.

I don’t think the Vols would have rescinded Pinkston’s offer. They need at least two in the frontcourt in this class. Pinkston might have been scared off, but they are nowhere near the same type of player, so Tennessee could easily utilize both. In the end, I think Pinkston is still a Vol, regardless of the Harris decision.

Not a single mention of the MONSTER baseball class Tech has put together, Chip?

Being from NY, maybe he would feel more comfortable in the ATL than with the hillbillys at UT. Also, the ACC still provides the highest exposure in B-Ball.

Why wouldn’t Tech want Harris…why wouldn’t any team want the number 5 player in the nation. Pearl and the Vols look great and I am afraid they get him. Hope Tech pulled it off.

I son’t dislike Reverunt Lowery – he has a right to his opinion – just wish he was a little more unbiased.

Of course Reverunt Lowery supported Doofus – he would never support a white over a black – both being eqaully liberal. That’s why he is where he is ion the black community – loyalty counts more than supporting the best candidate. Obviously he is a Tech fan and despises the Dogs because he is all about the city of Atlanta and could care less about the rest of Georgia.

GT will lose Lawal, Favors, Peacock and Bell after this season, three of which are forwards. That’s why they are still looking for help at power forward.

I would guess because Favors will probably be gone after this year also.

I do not understand why Hewitt would want Harris. Holsey is injured & red shirting & plays the same position. Plus Daniel Miller is red shirting, presently not on scholarship, but will go on scholarship for next season. I understand he will lose Lawal to the NBA & Peacock to graduation, but still I see no reason for Harris.

Can you help?

“You’ve got to love basketball recruiting.”

No, I don’t. Not until the NBA stops using college basketball as a 1-year tryout league. I lost interest after Stephon Marbury left.

Not expecting a GT announcement from Mr Harris, but I’d love to be surprised!
