We just lost this one to Murray State. Maybe that means we'll get the other one. 😕
I'm not sure how much interest we had in Edwards. He was getting looks and offers around the Valley but I don't think SIU was one of them.
In terms of Benson, I'd love to have him. If they don't get him, they have an offer out for Cade Hornecker, a 7 footer from Texas that recruiting sites seem to love. He has some good offers out there though and the possibility of more high-major interest once the HS season starts.
Give me a 7 footer (can't teach height) and a point guard. 😝

Well, we were just on-campus visiting him 5 days ago, so I'd say we still had interest in him. 😉
How about we sign BOTH Cade Hornecker and NJ Benson? That extra PG can wait until next year!

This one is committing tomorrow. We are in his final 10.

I think we missed his Final 10
@salukiworld He must have updated it. The Saluki logo used to be in there. Oh, well....

Heading to USF
Maybe it's too late to help Southern's cause with Benson or wouldn't make the difference anyway, but it's got to be pretty awkward for Murray from a recruiting standpoint at the moment. The OVC has blown up, and while I'm sure they'll find an escape hatch, what that might be is unclear, at least for the time being.

Hopefully it stays awkward for them just long enough for Benson to sign with us instead of them. Haha

Not expecting him to commit to us. Hope for a surprise.

I highly doubt Dalton would tweet about the program "needing" someone without having insider knowledge that he's coming. No guarantees but after seeing this I'm pretty confident. No other sources, just would be odd if not.

I wish that were the case, but I've seen players do that quite a bit and the prospect ends up committing elsewhere. Dalton's probably just throwing him some love. I wouldn't read too much into it.

Looks like the staff is concentrating on Cardinal Ritter's 6'4 SG Braxton Stacker. We already offered.
From the vibes I’m getting , I can see Stacker as a Saluki next year, Benson no.
