This might be the most wild recruiting saga, or maybe not, since John Wall. Well, I am probably exaggerating a little bit, but isn't is strange? This past Tuesday, Stacy Poole, Shooting Guard (Ranked #58 by scout.com) was all set to announce his college school - but wait a sec, ESPNUr contacted Poole and asked if he would wait on announcing his college decision on national television (ESPNU @ 5:30 p.m.)
Why is this strange? Well, the two schools that it has come down to for Poole's service is "Camelot" the University of Kentucky Wildcats and, drum-roll please, SOUTH CAROLINA?! SOUTH CAROLINA? I guess. You would think this was the signing of Tobias Harris (Ranked #7 Power Forward) or Harrison Barnes (Ranked #1 Center/Power Forward) and the it was a three-way battle between UK, Kansas and Duke.
All I can say is, "Welcome to UK Stacy!"
But, why is ESPNU putting so much attention on this signing? Don't know. Just seems kinda surreal, if you ask me.
