Harris has decided to go to Syracuse. (Expletive) Kentucky.

OK thanks.

For some reason I am getting an odd feeling that UK may have a chance now. Reports say there were only 17K in attendance at the UT game Tobias went to and only 5K at the end and only one person recognized him.

If the gameday experience was a factor maybe that could have swayed him. Or I am grasping at straws.

My understanding is that he could fax it in before midnight, which was the LOI deadline. He’s not saying publicly because he wants to make the announcement on ESPNU. Or at least that’s my understanding.

Hello John,

I am a bit confused on the Harris decision. By waiting till almost midnight to make a decision, did he miss the deadline for the letter of intent? Or was that deadline at midnight? I am assuming the whole point of deciding Wednesday was to make the LOI deadline.

Hey John,

I am a little confused on this whole Tobias Harris thing. Since it is reported that he made his decision right around midnight last night. Does that mean he faxed in his LOI last night as well? Or is he LOI – less. What was the deadline for the letter of intent last night. Was it 5PM or so, or was it all day yesterday and expired at midnight?
