I can't remember if it has been posted here or not but a guy on twitter said Pollard may announce his school during his high school graduation. Anyone got an idea of when his graduation is? Maybe this Friday?
Damnit I posted that on this page lol

We didn't make Finney-Smith's cut to 5 teams.

Rumor on the MSU boards is that Pollard is holding out so he can go visit LSU. He has a really close relationship with ast Robert Kirby (Formerly of Mississippi State and Georgetown)
Wouldn't shock me if he signs there.

Typical of Mississippi kids, I'm done with these bubba gumps.
As for Smith, unless he's a pf I could care less.

I thought you guys said he already made secret visits to LSU?
Posted on 5/21/12 at 2:23 pm to Tide or Die87
He did. Several people heard the rumor coming from campus, and less than a day later Evan Daniels of Scout posted it as well, saying LSU was a strong contender for Pollard.
I still think we are on the outside looking in, but the longer this drags on the better our chances are. Our one weakness is that we were late to the party. That becomes less of a weakness every day.
I still think he goes to Texas in the end, as of today. That is subject to change.

Yep, Pollard's mom really likes Coach Kirby and he has been recruiting Devanta since he was in 8th grade.

Bundy, your boards have said us, Georgetown, Texas, LSU and maybe even Mizzou at one point. They know as much as anyone else which is nothing.

Kirby getting at his mom?

Wait just a goddamn minute....
The LSURB swore that he had made a double secret visit to Baton Rouge just last week.
What gives?

Pretty much. No one knows anything with this kid. It's all unsubstantiated rumors. This is what happens when a parent is basically calling the shots though.

Usually the aau coaches make the call, correct?

Yea they do but she rules the AAU coaches as well. I guess this is what happends when this kid is the biggest thing to happend in Kemper in a while and they know it.

AAU coaches tend to have a lot of influence, yes. I wouldn't necessarily say they make the decision for the kid, but many of them push their players to certain schools. In this case, it seems like his mother is the one making the decision, not him.

On the Scout forum, a poster said he saw a post on TOS (another thing that pisses me off with that forum) that said he might be in classes at Alabama next week and that his family was just in town firming up the details and living situations. Anyone else see this somewhere?
EDIT: Its on TI basketball forum from a solid source. Says he coiuld have applied at more than one school for summer classes though. LINK

Yea thats what the analyst were saying that he would apply at all the schools he wants to go to and then when he is ready he would just start attending classes.

I'm just happy to finally hear something happening with the Pollard situation.
