Is he still scheduled to visit SDSU 9/18 ? I don't see why not I wouldn't be surprised if he committed after this weekends visit. All reports have him leaning towards the Aztecs, including his own twitter and comments in the press. I think he plays a lot like D Allen, can get a double, double in HS, athletic, lock-down on defense but needs to find his outside shot.

So is it Mathews , Melton or as SG ? Better keep other scholarships for PF/C or Grad transfer If we can not get the quality PF/C

How do you think this kid feels making a trip this weekend? The same is true for MJ, Stanback and Leaf are we a victim, a program that would be punished or a non-issue?
It's purely bad timing, and I think that's by demand from another entity or is the NCAA spiteful of the comments that Fish has made on travel for schools who lose in the NCAA tourney? Did the Jam Center scare the P5 and they have something to prove? The damage is done already on the startling story of the investigation. Is recruiting that corrupt? Or did we really do something wrong?

Yes Fisher and the staff will need to contact all recruits and go over details , also with current players. Recruits either believe him or not . No way this gets resolved before NLI week . Recruits will contact current players to get opinions also . Face the issue as do recruits all part of today's world .

I'm sure Mathews and cage are going elsewhere too unless this clears up really fast.

It appears USC sold him on the idea of developing as a PG, yet one of the weaknesses of Melton was said to be his handles according to some reviews (as well as shooting). It's doubtful SDSU told him they saw him as a future PG. It also may be doubtful that USC will end up using him that way, but best of luck to him succeeding either way.

Perhaps Melton knew that Matthews had priority over him with SDSU, and figured he would take the USC offer before that went away as well. If both Matthews and Cage go elsewhere, then Parish's article probably did have an affect. I think it is far too early to tell if this issue will affect SDSU's recruiting; however, it is clear it won't help us. Makes you wonder if Oregon had something to do with it, as they are really pulling hard for Cage to go there and also stole that other recruit from us.

would presume USC / Bland having made the first offer to him , made sure they recruited him quite strongly earlier this week , tried to get him to verbal while on campus . Then this situation happens and seals the deal for them .
So over and out on this post . Hope we can sign Mathews or another quality SG . Although PF/C is still more important . We also have MG-C for 2016 to go with Kell , Shrigley , at SG .

With this commit I think technically they have zero openings for 2016 now, unless someone comes out early or transfers. They're down 1 this year, lose 1 senior & add 2 commits. Things can change, but would think Mathews is less likely there, and may come down to us & Gonzaga, with Utah on the peripheral.

1 week ago he was hot on SDSU and was his project #1 choice. F#cking Hell. Guess he didn't want to come down for that visit this weekend. It just feels like pure sabotage.

He looks good in the NCAA's strong D, can pass and shoot. We missed out on him.
