Didn't this guy JUST commit to UT? Not that I'm complaining but...
Apparently he changed his mind after talking it over with his family.
Yeah, saw that.
Wonder if the NCAA investigation had anything to do with it...
Yea I imagine the Donnie Tyndall situation played a factor
article here
It took a week to flip him? Sounds more like he realized he made the wrong decision...
Either way, hooray!
Is this real life?
or is this just fantasy?
caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
open yo--- FREE BIRRRRRDDDDD
I think this is an appropriate time to embed video of Butch Walker covering Queen.
French: c-c-c-combo breakerrrr
Im so happy this happened. TKP is the best. Legs for all.
If you can't sing this song, word for word, acapella, I have to question your value as a human being. LIFE HAD JUST BEGUN!
One of the greatest things I ever saw live was Butch Walker covering Bohemian Rhapsody at Ziggy's in Winston Salem circa 2002. Sadly, it was followed by watching Lit, which is one of the worst things I ever saw live.
Lit has always kind of been it's own worst enemy, imo.
...but now I've gone and thrown it all away...
Oh hell yeah up vote for Butch Walker...'the best thing that you never haaaaaad.'
Buzz Williams
He'll get after ya
It probably didn't help the Vols that Donnie Tyndall is rumored to be under NCAA investigation.

Tyndall looks like a sleazy turd.
BUZZ IS A RECRUITING GENIUS!
HERE IS TO THE FUTURE OF VIRGINIA TECH BASKETBALL!
This is HUGE!!! Think about the future of the basketball program.
Devin Wilson, Seth Allen, Ahmed Hill, Chris Clarke, Shane Henry, Kerry Blackshear, Satchel Pierce, JVZ, and more. Buzz Williams is the man. I remember when we fired JJ how badly I felt for him because he only had two years, but I feel re-energized with this new team and they haven't even played a game yet. Future looks really good!
We need some post players. I read a preview of our team this week and I was shocked to hear the opinion on Shane Henry is that he is a 15-minute guy. So we basically will need to play a 4 guard lineup this year with only Blackshear and LeMay coming in to fill that post slot next year (and losing JVZ).
JVZ is a redshirt junior he will be back next year. Also where is this preview?
I agree we need more post players. I'm surprised Buzz still went after another wing. But he knows what he's doing.
I believe he is referring to TSL's primer posted the other day.
I agree in regards to the need for more of a post presence, and I think we can all agree that expectations for this season are still very low. However, the talent being brought in can not be overlooked. Allen is a real scorer and the tandem of Hill and Clarke will be so much fun to watch in the future. I cant wait to see Cassell "buzzing" again!
Buzz has a history of playing small lineups see Jae Crowder playing the 4 for him at Marquette at only 6'6"
JVZ is back in 2015 for his R-SR season. Clarke is scholarship #14 though... so who leaves? Someone going pro early?
1. Seth Allen (R-JR) - PG/SG

6. Ahmed Hill (SO) - SG
7. Jalen Hudson (SO) - SG
8. Zack LeDay (rJR) - PF
9. Malik Muller (R-SO) - PG/SG
10. Satchel Pierce (SO) - C
11. Justin Robinson (FR) - PG
12. Adam Smith (R-SR) - SG
13. Devin Wilson (JR) - PG
14. Joey van Zeregen (R-SR) - C
Clark(e)s are like Fullers up in here all of a sudden.
I am just in a state of shock, from the valley to the mountain kind of shock. Go Hokies and Buzz!
I guess Blacksburg and the ACC schools are a little bit closer to home.
AHHHHH!!! Big news!
So much for my dream of flipping Ben Simmons...
Man, November has been wonderful so far on the recruiting front. Keep them coming!
For real?
Tennessee Volunteer Athletic Department...in a nutshell.
ITS always a plus to come from a good family that can give u sound advice. Welcome to HokieVILLE Clark
Just another example of how quickly the culture changed once Whit took over & hired Buzz. I am reminded of those who defended James Johnson staying on 'for another 2-3 years so he can get his players into his system'. Now, instead of competing with UNC-Asheville & Elon for recruits, we have one of the Top 20 recruiting classes in the nation after only six months of Buzz. Amazing how quickly that changes.
I'm surprised you can reach the keyboard from all the way up there on your high horse
UT fans are convinced that Buzz snitched on them to the NCAA
That's only because they're used to their scumbag former coach Bruce Pearl being one of the most hypocritical snitches in NCAA hoops history. A cheater who turns in others for cheating. Pearl did it more than once, in both cases, snitching & cheating. It seems somehow appropriate he was the coach there.
and somehow he still has a job. . . .
Sure, in the SEC, Bruce Pearl fits right in. Look where he was hired. They just don't care what illegalities you do down there.
