Rodney Purvis Has Top 2?

by:asdfasdf06/16/11
So many questions...so little time. Rodney Purvis shed some more light on his re-recruitment today when he stated that Duke and N.C. State are the two schools showing him the most love right now, thus putting them at the top of his list.  Kentucky, Louisville, and Memphis are close behind... and let's be honest - Missouri is on there somewhere, whether he says it or not. Tim Fuller now resides at Missouri, and Purvis said this about him: "If Tim Fuller had stayed at Louisville, I’d still be committed."  SURPRISE.  This past weekend, Purvis visited Missouri and said he has a surprisingly great time.  Not sure what the surprise was, but I feel like that fact that Rodney did not list Missouri after he opened back up never kept anyone from thinking they wouldn't be contenders.  When asked about Fuller at UM, Rodney said, “Tim is a great guy, but I have to do what’s best for my future and my family." This could be another case of Cal and UK not showing the full amount of love necessary to please Purvis (if you follow him on twitter, you know the kid requires a lot of love/respect in the relationship department, as he talks about that more than basketball) YET.  We will see what happens in the near future, as Cal could turn up the heat any minute and finally make the kid feel like he is really wanted in Lexington.  Even if we look elsewhere, UK is in deep on many elite-level 2012 wings and we have Harrow eligible as PG that year. In the mean time, just know that the underage Kevin Ware is really excited that Kentucky is preparing to serve alcohol at 5 state parks, which means less time spent at Captain's Quarters.
