What happened with Haggerty is the perfect situation. Everyone knew we were recruiting him. We came in at 3.5 which was a very good offer. At the last minute A&M offered 4.2. Boom, gone. Wade doesn't want other schools to know who LSU is recruiting for this exact situation. The European kids we are getting no one really knows about. I think we are solid with Graves. As soon as someone mentions LSU the price goes up. Its not about the exact dollar figure. Its about who we are recruiting. People know Wade is a very good recruiter. Its no coincidence that he is posting very little on social media. Keeping things as close to the vest as possible especially with the agents that are contacting him about available players.
There are no agents out there sitting on secret LSU offers and not seeing if their client can get more money elsewhere.

There’s no way you actually believe this.

Man I'd love to have Mikka, but he's arse on defense. And he has major attitude problems, which is why a lot of major programs are backing off. UNC and Ark fans seem to be mixed on wantimg him after looking on discord. He kind of reminds me of the trevan brazile kid from Arky that can do crazy dunks

He also still needs development work. He wants impact starter money, but may need a year to develop his game. Then, can you keep him on campus for a 2nd year?

LSU isn’t even involved with him. No one reputable has reported as such

Where do you stand on the "secret commits"
I think it's bullshite.

We had an off radar visit from a high ranked HS recruit Wednesday.

Secret commitments is a bit of a stretch but there are ducks and they are in a row.

Yes there are guys committed that the public doesn’t know about. I won’t go to deep on that one. Just know there is a very detailed plan for the roster.

With Wade, there was never a doubt.

Any indication as to why they're committed & not signed?

Is it because you don't know what the details are?
My guess is he has 2 or 3 guys that are committed but I don't believe he has an entire roster ready to roll.

I’ve come full circle on this. I don't see why a player would agree to be a silent commit Unless it’s 5 for 5 guys or G Leaguers who just aren’t announcing until they are eligible. Even then I don’t see why they would be silently committed because they’d be dumb not to test the market to get the biggest pay day possible. I believe CWW has guys seriously interested but there’s no way there are agents out there just accepting our offer and staying quiet about it. It just wouldn’t make any sense from the players POV.

I'm not saying you are wrong, and it certainly would be out of character for Wade to not have a very well thought out plan. But there is reason to question what's going on. The number of uncommitted top 150 transfers and HS recruits is relatively small at this point and the portal is closed. Now, having even just 5-6 of such guys (LSU has 1 currently) could make a HUGE difference. But given LSU has an entire roster to fill and its commitments seem to be the only "silent" commitments among the rest of college basketball, the total lack of information/public knowledge is a bit odd

I just can't wrap my head around why the players would agree to this and why the Kentucky kid did not have to play the silent game. It just doesn't make sense. I believe CWW has a plan and has guys interested, I can't fathom he has 5+ silent commits just not taking offers from other schools.
