The whole Lee thing just manifested over the weekend. He's planning on visiting UofA next weekend and Louisville the following week. Mark Tollefson, a 4 from San Francisco, is also visiting.
Stanley is still going pro, despite his alleged vacillations. Today, it was reported that Roc Nation is bidding to be his agent.
Rabb is likely going to Cal, but who knows. No one has been able to accurately predict this situation. He was supposed to commit twice and then balked. He was then looking to sell Swannigan and Brown on being a package deal, but Caleb went to Mich. St and Brown is likely going to UCLA. At this point, if Rabb is picking Cal, it is certainly not for basketball reasons, especially if Wallace declares for the draft. I hadn't read anything that said Stanley has been recruiting him, but Allonzo Trier certainly has.
More than likely, we only end of with Tollefson when everything is said and done. Even if we get none of Tollefson, Lee, Stanley returning, or Rabb, we'll be fine.
Rabb said at the Hoop Summit that Trier had been recruiting him there and Stanley had been recruiting him back home.
Not sure what happened with Swanigan on the day he announced virtually everyone had him going to Cal. The claim is cal didn't know until he called and told them MSU. Stuff happens I guess.
You have to define what you mean by basketball reasons, not every kid is going to pick the best team. UA sites have been reporting the mom wants him at UA, Rabb and the mom have both publicly stated the opposite, that the mom wants him at Cal because she wants him around for the younger brother. Rabb wants to stay 2 years so it's a big deal for Cal if they get him and he's indicated he wants to be part of building something which works against UA where it's already built.
There's a lot of dominoes, Tollefsen is looking at Cal too, he wants to play a combo 3 and 4, Cal is telling him he will, Arizona is saying that, UCLA is trying to get in on him too but after Octeus it's going to be tough to convince grad transfers getting into UCLA is doable. If UA gets Lee they probably won't get Tollefsen, if Stanley stays they might not get either.
Lee is really good, 2 years ago UCLA and UA both played Drexel. UCLA beat them early, later in the OOC they had a good lead on UA and then Lee got hurt and had to sit and UA pulled even and then pulled ahead. I imagine both schools remember Lee from those games.
Forgot to mention I agree Stanley is probably gone, eventually one of these kids will be telling the truth when they say they're wavering but I doubt it's him. They are allowed to talk to agents as part of the process from what I gather, there's a certain amount of contact they can have so just because a kid is talkign to agents doesn't mean he's gone, but he probably is. He's also been linked to Rob Pelinka Kobe's agent.
