re: Basketball Recruiting Discussion

A good bit of news and activity for the 2015 class happening today:

C prospect Eric Cobb was expected to announce today at 4pm, and USC was a strong leader for his services. At the last minute, his announcement was however pushed back to tomorrow, with heavy school-work today being the reason.

Now his HS coach is reportedly stating that Cobb's announcement is back on today, within the hour. So stay tuned...

Then another C prospect for the 2015 class that was already committed to us - Travon Bunch - has news tweeted that his was initially going to sign this Wednesday, which was news to me. Apparently his SAT scores which he was waiting on was going to be received by then. The reported from the USC coaching staff is there's high confidence his scores will be fine. BUT NOW there's a delay in that Wednesday date as the SAT scores has apparently been delayed, so it will be a day-by-day wait on that. But regardless it seems that final news on Bunch is at last very close.

Further, Coach Martin and his staff hosted an unofficial visit from Charlotte 49er SG Kayshawn Woods. Apparently Woods (6-3, 185) out of Gastonia is looking to transfer from Charlotte. He is a rising sophomore although would sit out next season if he came to USC. He averaged 8.4 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 32 games (three starts) for the 49ers last season.

Currently USC has 2 scholarship spots for these 3 players, so we'll see what happens....
