No inside information here, but what I wanna believe is that Freeman’s agent is just angling for a counteroffer.
The staff needs to learn negotiation and leverage tactics. Why not pursue the top 2 priorities at each position simultaneously? That way you can create your own countering moves behind the scene. Move into a position of authority.

Maybe Pope needs to read, "The Art of War."

He needs to be reading Machiavelli:

"The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him."

Jaylin Stewart from UConn just entered, him and Khamenia both play the SF position, not sure if this will have any effect on Freeman. But could cause Hurley to push harder for a true PF and get Khamenia to stay at the 3.

Bama has 12 or 13 players already I believe. Players are looking for money and seeing who is gonna commit firstm

Has anyone heard anything more on the front of Freeman? Just saw a UK IG account say that St. John’s has entered the race for him

Looks to me that the players' decision tree is now:
1) Money
2) Minutes
3) Coach
4) School

Pilgrim just posted an update. Anyone know what he said.
Basically that Pope is the worst recruiter of all time.

But seriously, that St Johns (Which we knew) and Tennessee are heating up for ole Donnie.
I've never seen a coach be in the "final 2" more than Pope and then allow teams that weren't even in the mix to join the recruitment.

Yeah I mean I'm serious, I watch him at Syracuse and I'm like this dude reminds me a lot of McCarty. He's got a motor, he's about the same size, he passes it and shoots it. Just similar playing styles.
A comparison of a former 96 teammate!!!
Yea i know how this recruitment ends!!!
