Lol. UK fans thought he was a lock before Penny took over at Memphis
Here's a pic @CatScratchBeiber used to rile up Rupp Rafters a while back. Too bad they don't have a sense of humor over there and ban people like an insecure fascist.
Definitely NOT thankful for boog compliance today. Stretch should already be here and Okoro would have been down for sleepovers all fall. Better have this kid enrolled in a few weeks ridiculous.
But it's because of a student visa issue. That's a USA issue and not AU, correct?
Look man. This an important croot for our premiere program. We should have been holding his hand since the day he comitted make sure something like this isn’t an issue. I blame Boog U and so should everyone.
Well that certainly doesn’t surprise me cookie. I just lay out the facts everyone free to do with them what they like.
This is neither the day nor the time to be such a try hard cookie
Should’ve given him a Discover card instead like a real man
Imagine both Okoro and stretch will both sign at the same time at their school. Probably waiting for some other lesser recruits on their squad to make a decision and then they’ll have one big ceremony
Yesterday was the last day to sign during the early signing period.
So IF they didn't, they wouldn't sign until Spring.
As @cookedw noted, signing period is over. It sounds like everyone though Okoro signing was a done deal so this was not expected. The situation with Stretch's visa sucks and may have hurt us here as having him already on the team would have probably had Okoro down in Auburn a lot to visit.
Also heard Cooper might reclassify to 2019 and sign in the spring. I guess it's possible Okoro decided to wait to sign with him. Would be huge if we signed them both in this class. Cooper having a year to play with Jared before taking over the PG would be enormous for us.
I’ll feel much better about it if we can get Stretch here in Dec. I’ve seen some rumblings about Kentucky but I don’t think Okoro has an offer from them. They’ve got a couple stud wings committed already.
They’ve definitely offered Cooper but looks like they’ve got a good shot at the top rated PG in that class.
I trust Bruce and Steven to get it done as long as Boog admins don’t fug it up like they are known to do.

No, but if he had signed it would have been announced by now. He would presumably have pics on twitter also. He did retweet the highlight of the Jared dunk the other night so that seems positive.
Don’t think there’s any chance Okoro signs somewhere else. But whatever. Not even gonna think about it
Right but all the other signees have been announced publicly by the recruits and the mods on various sites. If Okoro had signed, I am sure we would know about it. None of the mods will comment on it which means something is up and their sources on the team have asked them to not address it, imo.
Per Jason Caldwell, he just spoke with Okoro and Okoro informed him he signed yesterday
Thank you for your service
Yep he’s not just a tweet poster anymore
When every other recruit signed, it was announced by the mods and the the recruit and their family. I don’t think it was a stretch to think something was up with Okoro when none of the people covering the team would comment on it.
Jhead on the bunker says he thinks he has signed as well. Hope that’s accurate and my assumption that something was up was wrong. Okoro is critical for us to reload next year.
If he didn't sign, then he literally lied to Jason Caldwell. Caldwell said Okoro is the one who messaged him that he signed yesterday
