Why are we not in his choices. Weren't we in the running coming up LSD. What's the deal with USC still in the running, aren't they getting sanctions? Didn't they sign like 40 recruits this year.

We only want him if he can't qualify.

Well from what was written during and after the original process, we should still be among those at the top of his list.

Sounds like Oregon's in it but I would suspect that Oregon's style of play and distance will play a role in his decision to not come here again.

So you know where he is going? Do tell. His coach does not seem to know yet!

It's not like they are starting over from scratch with no knowledge of the schools on his list. If he had previous issues I mentioned with Oregon, they are probably still there, but he could also have changed his opinion about what's important in a school and those don't matter any more.

I heard Chip say that some of the recruits couldn't handle the speed at which they practice. Maybe Simmons was one of them.

Maybe Chip just doesn't want to deal with a kid who already changed his mind 3 weeks after signing his LOI. He may think he's more work than he's worth if he's just going to transfer every time something happens he doesn't like.

What leads anyone to believe that Oregon does not want him?!

“Everybody has room for him, trust me,” Ward said. “The schools I know that are involved with Delvon have scholarships open.”
There not taking about USC are they? They Shirley

don't have room for him.
