According to the Pilgrim/Smith podcast things are moving along in a positive way regarding Z. What everyone wants to know is.... Is he enrolled yet. That is not going to be released until all the obstacles are overcome.
I have been following the near future of Z's twin Tomasek. Apparently he is having similar hurdles to overcome as no US school is hyping him as a soon to happen player.
Good to hear favorable reports out of practice regarding Dillingham and Burks. Rob is being coached to cut down on the dribbling and focusing on finding teamates as well as working on his shooting and conditioning. Also Burks getting some notice that his game is coming together nicely. I think he can help in situations. Remember, he was high scorer in the Overtime Elite league.
Back to BigZ. I can tell you, from someone inside the program coming to me in a roundabout way that the current UK players have talked with Z and are showing him love. Some of the distraction that continues to pop up is that other schools are pestering him as well as his own SW Derby team showing him a contract to continue with them. I'm told Z still wants UK more than any other option. There is still time to get this done and no one involved is sitting on their hands. I was losing my optimism for a bit but I still think it will get done. I am meeting with the go-between tomorrow so may have something additionally.
