Actually I have not seen any reports of a offer So you guys think Rick didn't offer but had a zoom call with him? Are you even sure there was a zoom call? One media source said they had a call. Don't you find it a bit strange that an offer has not been confirmed by Verbal Commits, Rivals, 247 etc? If Pitino takes a shit twitter lights up, but in this case, all but one source is silent. While we could all assume that Pitino offered, maybe courting a consensus Top 100 player may take a little more love before you extend the offer. Maybe they are waiting for him to take a virtual tour of the campus before they officially offer. Do you have confirmation that we offered?

Somebody correct me if I missed something, but the only information we have is a tweet by the Miller Report stating that he had a Zoom call with Pitino and the staff. No one has indicated that an offer has been made. I think the only place we would get that information is through a leak to a reliable source or from the athlete himself, right?

Thanks, Sharkey for the confirmation! so Pitino doesn't want him since we didn't offer, just had a zoom call and wasted his time whats the difference we are interested either way!! he didn't talk to him as a favor. why would we not want a top 100 player?

LOL.

Where did anyone say Pitino does not want him or that Pitino was wasting his time? Maybe he is trying to build a relationship with him over time? Maybe he is planning on offering him face to face when the virus restrictions are listed? I'm sure Pitino has a style of recruiting that works for him. You assumed that he had been offered... he had not according to Sharkey's research. Remember this?

Not sure what your beef is. I think we were just trying to figure out whether we offered him or not. Answer is no. I'm sure more will be revealed in the future.

It's a full time job just to keep up with all the offers! Let’s not forget how in recent years we were told there were far more offers pending than the few we were hearing about. We are now hearing about them all (maybe)...

Nate Santos - 6'7" SF from Geneva, IL, and plays for the Loomis Chaffee School. 3★ recruit who is rated the6th best player in his class in New England by NERR. His recruiting was hurt by a torn ACL last spring that eliminated his AAU season.
His father, Joe, played for the Puerto Rico national basketball team. His mother played at Wichita State. Brother K.J. plays at Missouri. Sister Ashley played at Marquette, Louisiana Tech and the Puerto Rico national team.
Offers: Maryland, Creighton, Illinois, TCU, Virginia Tech, Xavier, Dayton, Drake & Milwaukee
Interest: Wisconsin, UCONN, Marquette, Vanderbilt, Cincinnati, Ole Miss, and Georgia
Scouting Report:
"100% recovered from the ACL injury that cost him the second half of last season and all of the subsequent spring and summer, Santos had his best offensive performance on a big stage yet as he and RJ Blakney came close to leading Loomis over the NBA Academy. Santos splashed 4 threes and shot 4-7 from inside the arc to finish with a team-high 25 points." - HoopHall Prep Showcase - Top Local Performances - NERR 2.0 - January 22nd, 2020
