Not laughing at the possibility - laughing at the way it was said.

Wiggins is meeting with Roy Williams Monday, Bill Self Tuesday, and Leonard Hamilton Wednesday, FWIW.

So Wiggins is no longer meeting with UNC, Kansas, or FSU. Just as his high school coach said, I don't think he's doing this because he's done with the other schools, he's just tired of the pressure. He will be talking with the schools over the phone, but it's got to be frustrating to the other schools that Cal got to make his last pitch in person and they have to make theirs over a telephone call. I would be willing to bet he announces in the next two weeks.

He is burnt out on recruiting and wants time to decide with his family. This has nothing to do with one team holding an advantage over another.

I don't know how anyone could even last this long doing it. I think I would get it done before my junior season just to get it out of the way

IF he does commit to UK, is there really any reason to play next season? 9 McDonald's All-Americans and a lottery selection in WCS on the same squad. I guess Dominique Hawkins would be that lone lesser talent in the intrasquad scrimmages

Wiltjer and Alex Poythress as well. Ridiculous, when is Wiggins set to announce? Anyone know?

Most think he'll just drop the news randomly on twitter one day

Doesn't like the spotlight

Yeah a lot of people on twitter defending him about canceling the visits. I really do think you have to be feeling good if you are a UK or FSU fan. What I posted earlier about Nike being in his hear definitely makes me think Kansas (Adidas school) is out of it now. Its amazing how much of an effect these shoe companies have on high school players. Many people still think it is the main reason why Shabazz Muhammed picked UCLA over UK last year.

I'm still confident UNC is his #2. The UK situation just does not make any sense when you really think about it.

The rumor I've heard is that he wants UNC, but his family is pushing hard for FSU.

Funny, I haven't heard that at all I've heard everything from FSU being completely out to it being between FSU and Uk, or between UK and UNC. Just goes to show how many rumors are out there and nobody really has too much of a clue.
