Difference is we really don't seem to hear a lot anymore. My take is we don't have that "mole" anymore that has an inside track to this staff. Just my take

Ahmed is no longer listed as an Iona commit on the Robinson School website. Here is the best list of Iona recruits: www.verbalcommits.com/schools/iona

Mike Nzei has not committed to anyone, He is being pursued by Iona, Iowa, Duquesne, Hofstra, St. Joes and Old Dominion. Also getting looks from Pittsburgh and Oregon.

he has a 3-star rating while everyone else is a two (amayo a 2.7) He dominated off the boards playing for Team Africa against the best PF and Centers on TEAM USA Blue and TEAM USA Red. He had a double double in two games against seven or so top 50 recruits.

wow---hope to snag him before he "blows up" Nzei, Ahmed and Tafari Whittingham were the three players I wanted the most in this recruiting cycle. So far Whittingham committed to South Alabama, looks like Ahmed has flown the coop... hopefully we will do better with Nzei.

I guess we should not hold our breaths waiting for an official announcement.

I'm guessing that we had only one early signing, Najeal Young. I hate waiting until the Spring, but I KNOW we will end up with some very good recruits. This Staff always brings in way better than average recruits, who are usually better than their ratings. But, like I said, I hate waiting.

If I am a high mid-major recruit maybe even a BCS level (Ahmed) and I am in love with, in this example, the Iona coaching staff; I am not signing until the Spring. "Coach, I am coming on Board; but I am not signing until Spring." Why? "I want to be where you are."
If I was advising the young man, I give the same advice. I do not want the turmoil of a coaching change.

SLG, I would agree with that because if Iona goes to the dance again, I am afraid to say we will lose our coach
