Codie was one of the bigger influencers on Tre going to UT, but I don't believe it was the primary reason.
I don't understand where the clear thought came that Edgecombe was ever coming here. We were one of his visits but most of those closest to him have always said it is basically a Duke vs. St. Johns battle with Duke about 95% of the way there. But, who knows, maybe with Tre out of the way we'll become a higher percentage. The interesting sign with Edgecombe is that it was almost assured he was gonna commit to Duke at Midnight Madness when they had those other top recruits who were ready to sign in early November and/or commit that night, in spite of those in the Northeast who have said Pitino has a big influence on his decision.
I believe it was the ever optimistic Grayson who said on the bear cast that we are 100% getting either Johnson or edgecombe. Both want to be bears, but we only have space for one. That's where people are getting their info.
Struck out on Johnson, and edgecombe probably not thrilled to be our back up option.
And I think someone posted on the fb board that Nic Codie's dad a baylor alum said our nil sucks for fb at least unless I'm getting him confused with some other alum.
