Has he set a timeline?

Get that he'd be the focal point there but he'd get 30 minutes here too.

Basically a 1 for 1 with Justin Smith, although less explosive with a better skill set.

Already great relationship with Tech assistant, thoughts that he wants more playing time and staying in home state

Zoom with Muss and coaches this afternoon so I would guess he will decide no later than tomorrow afternoon

He could but Smith also got a ton of mins at the 5 which Williams will play a bigger factor in this year.

I believe Muss already made it clear tho that he doesn't like to promise player mins and more let them know they must earn them against everyone.

Also hearing Tech offering big NIL money.

Sounds like it’s Tech.

What do you mean? You think coaches aren't saying "ive got a deal for you with x, y, z booster" or alluding to something along those lines?"

This is all coming from Rivals.

Also saying he hadn't even talked to Bama or Illinois.

It all sounds odd.

That's quite literally against NIL rules

The rules are out the door. I'd be stunned if it wasn't happening.

It'll certainly be done, but it'll be handled like cash payments were before the rule change. Which means they aren't going to flaunt it out in the open.

Nick Smith (Bradly Beal Elite) and Jordan Walsh (Drive Nation) played each other today. Bradly Beal won by 5.

Nick didn't have a great game
2-9 from the field
0-4 from deep
5 points

Jordan Walsh played better
4-9 from the field
11 points
14 rebounds
7 assists
Lead the game in rebounds

Will be interesting to follow these guys and others as the NIKE EYBL continues

247 Arkansas bball guy saying he still thinks Obanor is Lubbock bound, even after today's Zoom with Muss.

Damn... Still don't see the pull to Tech over Arkansas, but so be it.

Still going to be a really good team, but that move would have probably been a Final Four.

Apparently we’re still talking to other transfers though. Curious who we end up taking, hard not to be let down about anyone that follows Obanor but maybe we’ll get a diamond in the rough.
