He's headed home to talk it over with the family before deciding between NC State and Nebraska. I'll just shut up until there's multiple parties reporting a more definitive answer. he didn't jump the gun... he was just trying to get people to subscribe to his "premium" article.

uneblinstu Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Which is what most were saying. Except for Clouse, who thought we were gonna get Holmes, too. Everyone was surprised by the last minute Calvin switch. Quote

Could be wrong but was weird how he kind of just broke down, checked out after he put on that hat, and really couldn't look at his family. Or I could be all wet, but... colhusker and ShortDust 2 Quote

ShortDust Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 Anyone else hear anything on Copeland or just waiting to see what happens tomorrow? bigFRED 1 Quote
big red22 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 This kid is an amazing talent, but I have multiple concerns 1. Why exactly is he leaving Georgetown. Did he not fit in there? I don't want someone to come here and break up the chemistry. I don't want him coming in here thinking he own the place! 2. Probably my biggest concern. We need another ball handler more than anything, because the lone player that is leaving is a great guard. 3. Like someone already mentioned in this thread. I don't want to stack the deck... Palmer, Watson, McVeigh, Jacobson, Morrow and if he joins the team Copeland would all be Junior's. Quote
aphilso1 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 Seems like this thread should be moved to the recruiting board at this point, eh? One point with regard to the large class size that multiple people have expressed concern about: these things have a tendency to shake themselves out. This isn't 25 years ago, when most kids stayed in one place for four years. Kids transfer, kids go pro early, kids decide they just don't want to play anymore, kids get academically ineligible, etc. I will say with a high degree of confidence that we will not have 6 players celebrating senior day in March 2019. If there's a talented player who wants to come here and the coaches want him too, you take him. Silverbacked1 and 49r 2 Quote

ajb5856 Posted January 8, 2017 Author Report Posted January 8, 2017 Things sound real good but they always do until they don't. I would expect to hear something very soon. Quote
ajb5856 Posted January 8, 2017 Author Report Posted January 8, 2017 Very soon like before you go to bed tonight. Quote
ShortDust Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 My guess is an announcement would come via twitter Quote

jayschool Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 If Copeland comes and is eligible and healthy to play right away, would McVeigh be considered for a redshirt? That would even out the classes a little more, though we'd be playing the non-con short a front-court player. 2018 Seniors — Fuller, Taylor and Gill 2019 — Watson, Palmer, Copeland, Morrow, Jacobson 2020 — McVeigh, Roby, Tshimanga, Horne 2021 — Akenton Quote
