BB Recruiting 2024 PG Dellquan Warren decommits

A lot of the early chatter saying this means Dylan is a lock now. Derek Simpson being here, Jamichael Davis tearing it up before arriving, and Dylan Harper locked, not a lot left for Warren to work, but he would only be the 4th guard for 1 year and there will be plenty of 3 guard lineups with this kind of talent. 🤷
Ok I can handle that.

Pikiells resume here so far

One NCAA victory

A lot of highly regarded transfers and decommits at inopportune moments


That's the resume so far. People can fluff it up all they want with regular season kudos but guess what? Regular season doesn't matter.

That is incredibly underselling what he inherited and the fact we hadn’t made the tourney since 91. You can’t just go “regular season doesn’t count” haha r u being serious? The three year stretch from Covid 20-11 year, making the round of 32 the next, finishing top 4 in conference at 18-12, im sorry, you can’t GLOSS over that as if it didn’t happen when the program last got to 18 wins in Waters first year TWENTY YEARS prior haha. Come on. One hs kid is not gonna make or break that 3 year run and if not for a blown lead at Minnesota, would have had another 20 win season. It’s ok to point out what you don’t like abt pike, but to gloss over these past four years is incredibly disingenuous to the argument, come on
 
Heard someone say at UGA
once you get the commitment the recruiting starts all over again for the same kid.

It's not a lock that committed kids sign,
It's just one step in the process.

It's more like there's an agreement in principle in place that should lead to signing on the dotted line, but a lot can still happen.

Dont let yourself get sucked into the vortex.

Why do kids even bother to commit? It no longer makes any sense until they sign. This will work both ways now and it won’t stop coaches from recruiting over them before they even sign.
 
And you seriously think we are keeping Ace and getting Dylan? Lol
This^^^. We haven't even received a confirmation of a signed LOI for a player in the LAST closed signing period, I do not believe. November will seem decades away before Dylan and Ace can/will sign an LOI for next year's class. We'll all be on serious meds by then lol. GO RU!

He’s been making the same idiotic argument for the last 3 years. He doesn’t watch the games nor does he root for the team - seriously. He’s a mental case.

He hasn't eliminated RU yet... "“After a lot of long hard conversations with my close and loved ones, I have decided to re-open my recruitment with keeping Rutgers at the top of my list,” Warren said in a statement to On3.
Meh. Gotta move on from this kid. He doesn’t want to be here.

We may just have to go back to the drawing board. Luckily, we have a coach that some of his greatest characteristics is his ability to perform well without tons of talent. Everyone is worried yet this isn’t the first time we had to work with inferior talent and you can still win games against schools with limitless offerings to players.
Coaching is no longer going to be about that. It’s about $ and recruiting more than ever. If Pike happens to invest the time into “Eugening” a player, they will just follow the $ elsewhere anyway.
 
Yup. Blacknall was probably the best one. The running back who flipped to BC and came back for his grad year was ok at best.

The freefall of that class sucked though and kind of indicated Flood wasn’t going to make it.

Don’t feel the same about Pike. Dellquan was always a soft commit - still sucks. I really liked his athleticism and speed.

He might have jumped the gun on his commitment. Might be shopping for a deal, might also be nervous about where he fits given the position. Don’t think we move on, but he’s probably not gonna end up here.
 
How can anyone think Ace Bailey will ever step foot on Campus? Its just a matter of time before one of the Blue Bloods offer him a bag he cant refuse. College athetics has become an absolute joke and mockery. Take away the Free “education” if thats what you want to call it. What a joke.

Better off staying course and recruiting and developing the 3 star types.

NIL has killed college hoops. I might give up on it like I did with pro ball.

This is probably the only real path to success.

The problem is the 3 stars that develop will then leave for the cash.

Well he’s going to be on campus this weekend.

I swear you only post to troll. GTFOH
 
Money talks......when fans stop attending college games or watching college games then NIL will be dealt with.....otherwise it's a waste of time to bitch about it.
 
The kid probably just wants to check his market value like everyone else.

College hoops is seriously effed up now.
