At least that’s what he told me Sunday night. I asked him if the Wildcats were still in the picture, especially with his coach at Motlow State being so tight with Matt Figger, and he said, “I ain’t going there, though.”
Evans said he might decide this week, and it’s down to Arizona or Maryland.
Here’s where his comments might prove revealing. I’m going to post something tomorrow about my thoughts on the Beasley decision – and believe me, he’s struggling with this more than people want to believe – but I asked Tyree why he wouldn’t be going to K-State.
“I’m not going to have any help there,” he said.
As for my absence, well, I apologize. I was pulled into KU coverage. It was rather time-consuming. Some of you missed me, and I appreciate the sentiment. As for the rest of you… I have a call into Montrell McDonald. I believe Awaji is Manhattan right now. As for the Hewitt/Georgia Tech talk, my sources tell me the Yellow Jackets are taking a wait-and-see approach with Awaji, not sure if he’s ACC-caliber. Hmmm…

hmmm…interesting comment from Tyree. Does that indicate the departure of Bill (along with Mike, presumably) and the non-return of David Hoskins for next season? That would be a bummer.
Barn.
not acc quality? frack
I’m glad he is not coming I would much rather have Awaji. “I wont have any help there.” Sounds like the attitude most KU fans have about us, DISRESPECT. Whatever, Bill Walker and co. are going to Do Work next season.
So, GT went 15-17 (7-9), so I don’t know whether GT determining that Awaji isn’t “ACC quality” is a good thing or bad thing.
Please stay Mike! Can’t hurt to say it one more time right?
and GT had that crappy short white guy at pg.
hey, welcome back to kstated. i saw you down in san antonio, in press row. i was there rooting hard against ku, but on the other side of the stadium, so i couldn’t say hi.
at any rate, i met mike down there at the all american announcement, and saw his face light up when i told him i was a k-stater. i said that no matter what he decides i was so glad he came to k-state. just mentioning the decision seemed to change his demeanor. in my 15 seconds of talking to him i got exactly that same impression that you have… it just doesn’t seem to be an easy decision for him to make.
btw… any chance of the press conference being covered live by anything? i want to know at exactly 5!
You had to cover the ‘beaks? My heart goes out to you.
Yeah, well, those are the same folks that said Stephan Curry wasn’t ACC quality either. I’ll have to trust Coach Martin on this one.
No Hoskins & No Walker = ouch…
