Thomas cooling on SMU

[Pony147]

"@AdamZagoria: Elijah Thomas says SMU recruiting him the hardest; UNLV, Illinois, USC, Ok State also in mix http://zagsblog.com/articles/elijah-tho ... -together/"

It mentions that Thomas and his AAU teammate Jawun Evans want to play together. According to that article, we are not recruiting him. Why is this? He is a consensus 4-star, top 65 nationally ranked PG from Kimball (hello Keiiiiiiiith). Is it because we already have Barefield?

So we're going to have to put up with this crap until he announces Jan. 15. Whoopee freaking do.

What crap? What the hell are you talking about?

You're wrong about this kid just like you were wrong about the non-conference schedule. That's my opinion. Yours is different. And we'll disagree all the way up until Jan. 15.

Wrong about what? I've never given an opinion on Thomas. I simply posted a tweet about a game he played. You're delusional.

Jan 15? What does that date have to do with anything? Your bipolar kicks in and Patten makes a return?

Stop playing the victim. It doesn't become you.

[LA_Mustang]

Then answer my question. What was I wrong about?

[B1GPonyFan]

What makes you think my post was in response to yours?

B1G- what is your beef with Elijah Thomas?

[B1GPonyFan]

Overweight. Don't think he runs the floor well. I think he's over rated. I question the competition he's faced at the HS level. His attitude. If he were to pick SMU, fine. I hope it doesn't happen.

You literally quoted his post and said "you're wrong about this kid". It is pretty understandable that he (and every other reader) would think your post was in response to his.

[B1GPonyFan]

LA claims he has never had an opinion of Thomas so you need to ask him.

Forgive me for taking Larry Brown's opinion more seriously than yours

[B1GPonyFan]

Do we know what Larry's opinion is? I can tell you that I'm not alone in this opinion of Thomas.

[East Coast Mustang]

The fact that SMU is one of the schools recruiting him the hardest probably tells us something

[B1GPonyFan]

That's what he says. He also said 6 weeks ago that he was no longer looking at SMU or something like that. So which is it, Elijah?

I need to ask him what?
