Coach Abdur-Rahim already had discussions with Robinson and his family, and they remain committed. I have not seen any signs that Callum is coming here. I just made the connection between his choosing a school whose coach at the time is now at USF. If you know of anything, please share.

We offered Callum - which is a significant upgrade over his previous commitment, so I would say that gives us a better than good chance that he'll be a Bull.

Whoops, looking at the date on his tweet, he was actually offered by the previous staff last summer . . .

That is what i was saying, which is he chose ETSU over USF. He is good down low, being able to shoot it with either hand, which includes an amazing sky hook with the left hand. He is not a tremendous leaper but appears to be adept at blocking shots (better than Tchewa). If he ends up here, see highlights:

This should be an easy one. If you are a kid his age would you rather live in Nebraska or Florida? The only school that should be beating us out on recruits is the University of Hawaii.

This kid's from Ft Myers so FGCU could have come into play, along with the new hoops juggernaut just across the state in Boca ....

How do you know he is going to Oklahoma? 

If he goes to USF, I wonder if Selton Miguel would enter the portal.
