I also would not count on Clarkson being around next year. It's possible he goes to the NBA after this season, from what guys like Gottlieb and Eric Bossi keep saying. I talked to a friend in Louisville over the weekend who covers the team. Price sounds like a project, but probably is a better fit for what Haith's system asks that position to do than he was for Pitino's high post based system.

Mizzou just picked up a commitment from Jakeenan Gant, a 2014 forward. Gant is Rivals' 44th ranked prospect for 2014.
There is a decent chance that his teammate, Ahmed Hill, is strongly considering the Tigers as well. Hill is the 55th ranked prospect for 2014.

Also, it appears Mizzou is in good shape with Devin Booker. Don't have enough scholarships for everybody (at this point), but it'll probably work out in the end.

I've never wanted a player more than Booker.

2014 4* shooting guard Namon Wright just committed to Mizzou, per PowerMizzou.

Chris Sandifer also re-opened his commitment.... sounds like he will be re-classifying for 2015.
Ahmed Hill and Devin Booker still very much in the cross hairs.

What does "re-classifying" mean?

Instead of being a senior/member of the class of 2014, he will instead be part of the class of 2015. Not sure exactly how they go about it, from a paperwork standpoint, but it has to do with age and transferring schools (or attending a prep school).
Sandifer had a few classroom issues, from the way it sounds. Might be the pretty common case of a guy not doing enough work as a freshman, before his recruitment got big, and not being able to catch up in time to qualify out of HS. By reclassifying, he can go to a prep school for one year and clean up any grade issues he needs to.

It sounds like we have recruited over the top of him anyway. I don't expect him to be a Tiger, and we should be better for it.

Missouri basketball coach Frank Haith was given a five-game suspension by the NCAA on Monday when it announced the findings of a 23-month investigation into the University of Miami athletic program, where Haith formerly coached.
The NCAA’s probe centered on former booster and convicted felon Nevin Shapiro’s association with the football and men’s basketball programs. Haith, who coached the Hurricanes from 2004-11, was accused in February of failure to monitor, which the NCAA describes as “a serious violation that is similar to lack of institutional control but considered less significant.” The NCAA ruled Miami lacked institutional control, but accepted its self-imposed penalties. According to the NCAA, Shapiro was in financial trouble and asked Haith to loan him money or return his $50,000 donation. Haith denied Shapiro’s request, but former Miami assistant coach Jake Morton loaned Shapiro $7,000. After Shapiro was sent to prison in 2010, he began to threaten Haith and Morton, demanding money. The NCAA infractions committee ruled that Haith and Morton worked together to make sure Shaprio received money to end his threats. “As the leader of a high-profile basketball program, (Haith) had a responsibility to make sure he and his staff followed the rules. However, the former coach did not meet his responsibilities and this conduct resulted in violations. The committee noted that had he asked about the basis of the threats and the former assistant coaches’ relationship with the booster, he could have recognized potential concerns or taken the issue to the compliance office.” In June, Haith and Miami officials appeared in front of the infractions committee. The school — and other individuals no longer at Miami but charged with breaking NCAA rules — expressed their frustration with the NCAA enforcement staff in light of the admitted mistakes it made during its 23-month investigation. In January, the NCAA announced that former enforcement staff members worked with Shapiro’s attorney to improperly obtain information. After an external review, the NCAA discarded about 20 percent of the information, which was deemed tainted because of “improper conduct.” One former Haith assistant at Miami — Michael Schwartz, now at Fresno State — was previously cleared by the NCAA. But former assistant Jorge Fernandez received a two-year show-cause penalty, a more serious charge than failure to monitor. Morton and Fernandez were accused by the NCAA of allowing Shapiro to promote Miami’s athletic programs and assist in the recruitment of three players, including former Kentucky star John Wall. Both Morton and Fernandez were also accused of providing impermissible travel and entertainment benefits to people associated with recruits. One of the athletes, Durand Scott, eventually attended Miami and was suspended for six games last season for receiving impermissible benefits. Senior center Reggie Johnson was not named in Morton’s notice, but also sat out one game last year after the NCAA found that a family member had received impermissible travel benefits from a coach on the former staff. The Miami basketball team will also lose one scholarship during the next three seasons. Shapiro also claimed he spent millions between 2002 and 2010 on football and men’s basketball recruits, athletes and coaches. But Miami’s football program will not receive an additional bowl ban. Instead, it will lose three scholarships over the next three years. Miami skipped the last two postseasons as a self-imposed penalty. Miami’s football team is 6-0 and ranked No. 7 in the BCS standings. Read more here: http://www.kansascity.com/2013/10/22...#storylink=cpy

He'll miss Southeastern Louisiana, Southern Illinois, Hawaii, Gardener-Webb, and IUPUI.
This investigation has been a clown show but you have to count that as a big win for Haith. No one will even remember this by Thanksgiving, especially after we sign Booker and have another great recruiting class. |

A buddy of mine said he heard Booker quoted as calling his visit last weekend a "10 out of 10".

What a bunch of bullshit. Doesn't matter, but he should further appeal...just on principle.
