Coach Ford to meet with Remy Abell in Louisville today (Tues 4/19)

When and how do you think we will be informed of the visit went?

Don't know. Coach Ford will be away from Peoria until next week, but Willie will be returning to campus. We should be able to find out something from WS by tomorrow, if not sooner.
 
We will find out sooner then later if RA still asks for his release. If we do not hear a thing then I'd have to believe it went well. Let's hope to not hearing much.

I tend to disagree. I would think that if it went very well today Remy would just say that BU essentially is still where he wants to be and now he has met the coach and believes he would fit in with the style of play and would still enjoy the opportunity to play for Bradley.

If we don't hear news soon I would tend to believe that he is still thinking about it and is not totally sold on BU and will probably ask for his release so he can be re-recruited.

I think the sooner we hear news the more likely it would be to be good news as opposed to bad news, and vice versa.

I think I was right in my comments. However, my definition of soon is different than DC's.

When I said soon I was thinking he would announce it today that he was still with Bradley. Since that clearly didn't happen, "soon" according to DC may be tomorrow or the next day.....which DOES NOT fit my definition. I think DC does not believe RA is committing to Bradley (speculating) and according to my definition of "soon" I no longer do either.

Edit: or DC was using a play-on of words by saying I was right in that a comment "soon" from RA would be a good one and he should be making a comment "soon" i.e. DC thinks he's coming to BU

I would have to believe that with today's technology Remey would have gotten the word out that he is free. If he stays committed he may have to make a few calls to tell others that he's made up his mind. I understand your logic but it goes both ways. If he keeps his commitment then why does he have to announce anything to the public? I bet we'll hear something one way or the other tomorrow.

He would need to announce it because it is now common knowledge that he very well might not be coming to Bradley, and may in fact be leaning to NOT coming. Therefore, I think it would be more news that he is staying. Now if he has met Geno and was not convinced...then that would take time to think it over. And if he needs time to think it over I would have to believe it is more likely to not fall in our favor...jmo.

I'll still hold out hope for tomorrow, but if it goes any longer than that my hope will exponentially decrease with each passing day.
 
I would assume the way we will find out is from J. Demling at their local paper. He always has the scoop on Remy and the area. Book it.
 
I was creeping


RA just made his status "BLESSED!!!!!!!" on his facebook


blessed to have a coach like GF?
blessed to have gotten his release?

I wouldn't think "blessed" would describe getting released as well as it would getting appropriate attention from your university.

I'd say he's pumped to have Geno and Willie at his house, but for all I know he had a killer spaghetti dinner, or a crazy religious experience about an hour ago and was "blessed".

Blessed.... that's a tough one to decipher, Remy.

I would go the other way. If I really was thinking I wanted my release but was willing to meet the new coach and then things went well, I might want a couple of days to think things over and talk to my mom about the decision.
As much as I would like to get the decision over w/ I would also understand it if he took a couple of extra days.

If there is no news on this situation tomorrow, then I sure hope you and SFP are right.

Gonna' take a stab at it and guess he is blessed to have a great coach & assistant come over so he could realize that Bradley is STILL the place for him to be.
 
I'd guess blessed most likely refers to parent(s)
But is it parental wisdom to wait and meet a great new coach, or blessed to have parents respecting a new decision...?
 
I will go with the fact that he had a great coach to play for in Jim and now he has another great coach to play for in Geno. We can only hope?????
