According to the Deivon Smith press release, he has 3 years of eligibility.

That gives us a nice PG balance:

- Bubba as a Senior
- Kyle & Deivon as Sophomores
- Deebo & Tristan as FR Combo Guards
- We probably skip the 2022 class, given who's available, unless a really attractive target is available
- We probably start seeing 2023 PG targets come up more from here out.

Press release has been corrected to reflect 4 years remaining for Deivon. More reason to move PG recruiting to 2023.

FWIW, Langston Wilson said in an interview that he wants to be enrolled in time for Summer semester no matter which school he chooses. GT summer sessions start May 17th, so we'll know if it's us or not us soon.

Appears so?


I assumed he wanted to get in ASAP to get workouts in.
There are actually three Summer sessions: Full Summer (May 17-August 06), Early Short (May 17-June 22), and Late Short (June 23-August 06). Returning students and new transfer students almost universally attend the Full Summer Session. New first-year students entering in the Summer will always be in the Late session; there is no option for a freshman to enroll before June 23.

It's pointless to argue at this point. To some people unless you have already proven you are a starter then you aren't good enough to be a starter. The entire mentality has holes everywhere but people are set in that mentality.
I assume if we don’t go after a big man, the coaches believe that feel that Howard, Meka, and Gigiberia can fill the role. No transfer big will certainly help the young guys develop quicker.
