You do have to admit that CWT has just a shade more credibility if you're looking at their entire body of work. Except you haven't heard a single word out of CWT denying any of this. In fact there's loads of evidence suggesting that everything Litton said is true. The Bulls DID use him as a de facto recruiter. There's plenty of evidence of that. I don't know how credibility can possibly come into it when there's no statement that you have to determine is true or not. If CWT steps up and says what Chase is saying isn't true, he really de-committed because he expected an offer from Florida, then so be it. Let's determine who is more credible. That hasn't happened. I'm willing to bet USF's response to hearing Litton say all this was just, "Well ****...I wish he would have let us know he wasn't as comfortable with the arrangement." Which is why I believe that what happened was just an error in communication, an unfortunate situation that needs to be learned from. But no. Everyone wants the kid to be the devil in this. They demand it because they like wearing t-shirts and cheering for touchdowns. CWT can't say anything, can he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Coaches legally ARE NOT allowed to talk about a recruit until he signs the LOI. They can't even say they have offered a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are another coach, what do you make of this drama? Does this hurt his chances at another D1 school? Of course the coaches will hear his and maybe Taggart's side.

Not sure when it was pulled, but I think it's pretty reasonable to infer that Litton's Twitter decommit precipitated all of this. If it wasn't pulled immediately after, I'd say he was given long odds of it being available again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do college coaches ever talk to each other about potential recruits?? Thought it was pretty much a dog eat dog business .... possibly, though I guess, coaches/friends could communicate with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
