Vick decommits

[hoopmanx]

We're at top of suilemons list w/terps. Still think it's a long shot Keith returns for more reasons than grades. Like I said last week, we may indeed lead for Williams

The move by Vick just seems kind of [deleted]. We hold his spot right up to the end and he pulls a switch? Something else is going on with him - someone has his ear.

I saw a couple of tweets mention that he has not eliminated SMU. Just a guess, if he's able to reclassify he'll probably go elsewhere but if he remains 2016, I think he stays with SMU. I'm sure there's a blue blood telling him if he can reclassify to 2015 he has a ship.

He'd be a 2016 with us so it's not right up to the end.

He is trying to reclass to 2015 and we don't really have space left in 2015.

I think you are right, and I think it's a Big Blue blood

[Stallion]

right we never signed Vick in the first place because his signing date was supposed to be next November

[Planter's Punch]

If it is largely motivated by tougher academic requirements for the 2016 class, given the situation with the last academic bubble player, this could be a blessing in disguise. I want more recruits like Milton, whose mom does not accept a B.

[Stallion]

yeah it could be-I always suspected he would likely be a mandatory redshirt even if he did qualify in 2016

[LA_Mustang]

CalallenStang,
I'm sure we are talking about the same school. Another reason I believe it's Kentucky is because one of the recruiting gurus claimed he is possibly a 5-star talent. Since 5-stars are the only kids UK goes after, he must be a 5. How's that logic?

Not many of those out there

That sounds like UK logic

He decommited because he might get the qualifying ACT score and some big time programs want him this year. SMU had a good one for a while.

Is that get a qualifying ACT score, like Derrick Rose got a qualifying SAT score?

SMU IS a big time program.

Still hope we get him - I love taking the best out of M town since they don't go to Tiger High anymore (see JW3) as they know that program's [deleted] now and SMU's IS the [deleted].

"LaGerald Vick has been contacted by Kentucky, Kansas, Louisville, K-State, UCLA, Texas, Memphis, VCU, others since decommitment last night."

There are a solid handful of big name programs in that list...here's betting he reclassifies, and ends up at UK, KU, or Texas...

@ScottSanford67: Former #SMU commit LeGerald Vick already hearing from top ACC, SEC & Big 12 programs. Trying to reclassify to '15. Could still end up at SMU
