Supposedly Tai had an amazing visit to Wisconsin. I cannot read the article as it is premium on their site. Coach, our staff and players must work some magic next weekend to get him to think RU. Here is hoping for the best.

Its hard to find a recruit not saying they had a great time during a visit.Wisconsin is a threat because of past success while Rutgers has to sell future success.Each recruit determines what is best for them.Supposedly Tai had an amazing visit to Wisconsin.

Kid from Connecticut who had scholarship pulled and went to Indiana is one. But I agree, you don’t typically see I didn’t like type quotes.Let me know when an article comes on a recruit (bball or football) where it says "Totally hated it. No way in hell I'm going there!"
I’m sure that has already been done long ago. If not then he wouldn’t even be listening to Rutgers. The top recruits know what’s up inside and out.So visit next week - need all aspects to ring true & be highly attractive - and all questions need to be resolved to Strickland's satisfaction
Now if Strickland says "Coach, I know you are sure it will all work out - I really like Rutgers - but we are talking about where I will be starting school in about 5 months - so I need genuine certainty before I make a commitment - can you tell me exactly how you are going to have a scholarship for me? "
Does Pikiell just say "trust me... it will work out" ?
or
does he "pull back the curtain" and provide exact certainty? (and if he does - who does Pikiell know is definitely not going to be back?)

Hope you’re right.If he didn't commit it means he's seriously considering us. They pushed hard for a commit and failed.
FYI, for those that haven't seen it, here is the title:Hey Nuts, No one said "Strickland had the best time in the history of the world while he was in Wisconsin". Maybe you should read what it says instead of making things up.

Official visit to Wisconsin "amazing" for 2019 PG Tai Strickland
Pretty much par for the course for an official visit.

Just the opposite, actually, if you read the article. He was expecting it to be all country and it wasn’t what he was expecting.Tai - “ I mean it was amazing! It was so cold I couldn’t believe it. Then on the way from the airport to campus, we saw like three of four people. A few cows. I didn’t see anyone with that cheese thing on there head but like I said, we only saw a few people. Coaches were cool but the history lesson was a little overboard. But still Amazing “ onto Rutgers...
Aren't there rumors that Wisconsin's head coach , Greg Gard, will be on the hot seat next year? His recruiting is down and Wisconsin was just ordinary this year. And Gard suffers in comparison from what happens to many head coaches when they replace a highly successful coach like Bo Ryan. On the other hand , Rutgers ended the season on a high note and Pikiell is getting a lot of good press.
Brad Davison did have a very good season for Wisconsin. He is a point guard who is only a freshman at Wisconsin. His future looks bright for 3 more years so just maybe that could sway Tai to RU where he could get more playing time.
So the editors of the Wisconsin site wrote a headline to the article that makes it 150% certain Strickland had the best time in the history of the world while he was in Wisconsin? Gotcha!
Remember Rick was not aware of anythingWow, Did they hire Rick Pitino to organize the event?
Why not? Geo is not looking to be pure ph.Davison was the host for Strickland's visit (and Baker is our host for him) so I'm not sure the playing time component would really be huge in our favor.
Why not? Geo is not looking to be pure ph.
I don't think Davison is either, is my point.
In a nutshell: he got the usual tour, expected Wisconsin to be "country" and was surprised that it wasn't, the staff made him feel wanted, he was excited about the visit but he had never been on an official visit before and he has more schools he wants to see. Doesn't have a set date for announcing but is leaning towards April 11 (signing day)Supposedly Tai had an amazing visit to Wisconsin. I cannot read the article as it is premium on their site.

Could get the same response from an RU visit. Just replace Wisconsin with New Jersey, and country with turnpike and oil refineries.In a nutshell: he got the usual tour, expected Wisconsin to be "country" and was surprised that it wasn't, the staff made him feel wanted, he was excited about the visit but he had never been on an official visit before and he has more schools he wants to see.
