Is my math correct that he is down to his last official visit?
Hopefully he makes his decision soon. Can we pry him out of Kentucky? Sure would be nice to put this class to bed early.

WKU is conducting a pro day today at their practice with 20 NBA scouts present. They, also, have a 4 star 2020 6'11" center on an official today which seems to be strange unless they're trying to coerce him to come out early. Also, strange that their coach implied that they could sign 3-4 in this class, but by my count they only have one. Stansbury just seems shady, and he has had his share of turnover. Maybe the contrast in non-sincerity and groundedness will be what Cozart needs to experience to solidify his decision. Hopefully red flags go up for him.
Have to wonder at what point do we move on, or if we simply don't plan on offering anyone else until the spring, in the event Cozart doesn't commit to us.

Teams in the mix for Cozart (in no particular order)
1) Belmont- Official Visit
2) Charlotte- Official Visit
3) W&M- Official Visit
4) Wofford- Official Visit
5) ??
Eastern Kentucky - Local Unofficial Visit
Western Kentucky - Unofficial Visit
I believe if we lose out on Cozart we do not offer another fall target. We move on to identifying and targeting a big for the late signing period.
RE: 2019 Men's Basketball Recruiting - WillaMary08 - 10-11-2018 01:55 PM
According to Verbal Commits, Cozart does not hold an offer from WKU. Maybe that changes today.

Hate seeing Charlotte on that list. Just have this awful (and 100% uninformed) feeling we're going to lose out to Kotie on Cozart.

According to verbal commits
Charlotte - 2 spots left / 2 big offer (Cozart & Linares)
Belmont - 2 spots left / 1 big offer (Cozart)
Wofford - 1 spot left / 1 big offer (Cozart)
EKU - 2 spot left / 2 big offer (Cozart & Moreno)
WKU - 1 spot left / 1 big offer (Johnson) Cozart not offered
W&M - 1 spot left / 1 big offer (Cozart)
On the surface, it appears WKU is the only one that isn't in the mix.... Except the recent visit. All the other schools seem to have all of their big man eggs in the Cozart basket.

I don’t know what Cozart wants, but I wouldn’t go to sleep on Belmont.

WKU offers Cozart.

Looks like there is now a late push happening with VCU, K-State and Missouri showing interest.

With the number of schools and coaches in the mix, I feel like the further we get away from his official visit, the less likely it is he winds up here.
Isaiah would be a good get, but I'm of the mindset that the coaches will find the right guys for the program. If it isn't him, it will be the next guy. That has happened over and over where a coveted target goes elsewhere only to eventually get a commitment from a kid that is ultimately a better fit.

West Virginia did not offer Weber as far as I can tell but the visit may raise his profile and/or alter his decision’s timeline.

With Cozart retweeting his WKU offer, you have to assume he's not coming here. If he was leaning/set for any school of his four official visits at this point, he wouldn't be advertising new offers. Noticed one of UNCW's commits and a current Wofford player started following him, so, obviously trying to get in his ear. Yes, players need to let the recruiting process play out, but at this stage if you're still looking/advertising, then you haven't found it with an existing suitor.
We got him on campus twice with no "that's it" forthcoming. Reality bites....

He retweeted every offer from every school. I don't think it means anything.

It may not mean anything. But I do get what he is saying. If you are excited about getting married, you aren't looking to pick up new girlfriends. That said, I don't think he followed back the Wofford and UNCW players.

Might this indicate that he would always be looking to transfer even after he enrolls someplace?

He opened his twitter account in Aug/2017, but you are correct in that he didn't start tweeting till July. He didn't retweet the announcement about his official visit, though, as he did for Wofford. Agreed he is not an active twitterer, but, I still think we haven't rung his bell.

So, now that Cameron is part of the Tribe, I revisit his HS student section. W&M students are going to have to pick up their game!!
