Absolutely not, the NCAA doesn't care about self imposed sanctions. It's best to fight it.Packfan8 said:
Let's hope this cloud doesn't affect recruiting too much! Should we just self impose something just to get it over with?

Now maybe we can see why Coach Keatts has had a difficult time on the recruiting trail
Is it actually known if other schools have - previously to yesterday - been using it negatively in recruiting? If so, what schools?Dunlow66 said:

I wont mention the player, but I was given some info on a recruit who had serious concerns over the NCAA/NC State situation thanks to what other coaches were telling him and his mom.TheStorm said:Is it actually known if other schools have - previously to yesterday - been using it negatively in recruiting?

I'll hang up and listen now...
I mean its pretty low hanging fruit. Why would they not tell recruits that? We certainly did when UNC got in trouble. Atleast our football program did.TheStorm said:Is it actually known if other schools have - previously to yesterday - been using it negatively in recruiting? If so, what schools?Dunlow66 said:

Man I really hope so. I just hope everything gets solved soon because I don't want this hurting our 2020 class like I think it did our 2019 class.Packfan8 said:
Hearing the ips podcast makes me feel a lot more comfortable about where we stand. I feel like it can help recruiting to just say here's what they have on us. It's not like the ncaa is going to give us a postseason ban for giving out too many tickets to family of players. It seems like we're going to dodge the whole gottfried/early mess too which is great if true

BYIn my opinion, Coach Keatts has gotten way too much criticism on this Board and others for the 2019 recruiting class. Go back 100 pages on here and look at out situation in early Fall 2018. We were anticipating two open spots ( Dorn and Lockett).
Probably our top three targets were Wendell Moore, Patrick Williams and Jalen Lecque. Coach signed one and he went pro. It apparently was close with Moore and we are going to have tough time right now going head to head with Duke. No shame in losing that one.
I doubt we were expecting Ian Steere to leave after one game, Sacha to leave mid year and Wyatt Walker to "turn pro" early. In the midst of that, there is no doubt we were being negatively recruited against by other schools. Coach had only one season under his belt and had hardly had the time to build recruiting relationships necessary to have a lot of options.
As it turns out, Coach has a full roster that includes a pretty good, perhaps underrated freshman, a great Three point shooting grad transfer and a serviceable grad transfer Center. PLus a transfer in Thomas Allen that everyone here wanted two years ago and a JC kid that looks very promising in Atticus Taylor. It isn't an A+ class, but all things considered it is at least a B.
We have a great coach here. I think he will be successful. We need to give him time and support him. He knows what he is doing.
Keatts has been recruiting Thomas since he was in 9th grade, if coach tells him the allegations are not a big deal I'm inclined to think Thomas will trust him.Packfan8 said:

I've been watching Cam Thomas on the live stream at Peach Jam. Obviously he's a really good scorer. Reminds me of a guard version of TJ Warren. He's struggling with his outside shot atm but he's really good at getting to the FT Line where he's automatic.
Not real good on D. He ain't got time for defense.Packfan8 said:PicklePacker said:

Would be nice to get him, hows his defense? I've really only seen highlights and they obviously don't show any defense in those.

Agree, I would not mind bringing in a class like that, but check with the other posters first they seem to think, maybe Keatts as well, Farrar & Gibson aren't worthy of offers yet.
I could just start deleting his post when he does that if you guys want me too....I hate to edit opinions but post like this do nothing to improve the content here.Packfan8 said:Struttingwolf96 said:
