John Wall is not what UNC wants on their team. Wall is a thug and represents everything UNC is not. Roy usually has been pretty good about choosing classy, good kids and Wall is just not that.

Wall is waiting on Lawson’s decision. Source on the team says. Either way, well have Wall or Lawson running the point next year! Back to Back Champs???

Wall’s “handler” doesn’t care much for the UNC coaching staff. That’s probably why everything is so hush-hush. I think it’s all pretty obvious. Wall could stay at home and play for NCSU or Dook and would be a shoe-in as the starting point guard. Same goes for Memphis, Baylor or Kentucky.So why hasn’t he committed? I say he’s waiting on Lawson’s decision to turn pro. To me, that’s the only explanation that makes sense.

Explain then UNC’s complete disappearance from any of John Wall’s list of potential schools. UNC is his favorite team and they’re in his backyard, why would he omit them from his college choices unless he was not being recruited?

gm is correct. Roy has stayed in contact since Wall is in his backyard. Also, another telling point is Wall’s desire to stay close to home to be near his mother.

“…but will Ole Roy be able to overcome the fact that he ignored Wall for the better part of his senior year?”

Not a fact. On the contrary, RW been in contact for quite some time–seriously.

As inferred in your treatise above, RW prefers to keep his biz on the down low. It took some serious sniping to get this data.
