Does this kid shake hands? I swear to God he'd better shake hands.

Deal breaker.

But seriously, welcome to the family Chris.

Nothing from Rick or Shannon that is different or cryptic.

Very interesting. I'm in the camp that will be very excited when (if) he qualifies and is eligible. Definitely a crazy talent, but hopefully not another Michael Chandler situation.

What are these tweets about? It's blocked at work.

From UD Pride:

unreal, X continues to find ways to fill spots. ridiculous

Sounds like he'll fit right in at x - this from last summer after being upset by a team with no D1 prospects:

It was another unexpected turn for Hawk star Chris Thomas, a 6-foot-5 rising junior combo guard with superstar talent and a growing reputation for volatility.

"This is bad, man," said Thomas, who was slapped with a pair of technical fouls at the Super 64 and ejected from a game in Indianapolis earlier this month. "Especially to a team that we are better than."

Upset by a team with no D1 prospects? You mean like how Northland lost to Reynoldsburg? They're also suggesting a lack of institutional control. I'm not sure how they arrived at that one.

All I can say is, if Thomas helps lead us to the promised land, I just hope all of the Xavier fans who hate the one-and-done idea remember where they stood. Not saying I'm a fan of it necessarily, but all those who are hating the player and not the game may want to think about it if the shoe is ever on the other foot.

Per a highly regarded source. Thomas would be the most talented player to ever put on a Xavier uniform. One year is fine with me.

Willie Warren was pretty decent in college. He plays more like Jordan Crawford(but with more of a neck).

The statement wasn't based on talent, because Willie had it. It was based on attitude, ability to be coached, etc. Willie was a huge problem at Oklahoma.

Chad Ford said this about Warren:

Oklahoma's Willie Warren continues to free-fall down the Big Board. He's currently struggling with a case of mono, though that's not why he continues to slide. As more details emerge about Warren and how difficult he's been this year, the more NBA teams are running away. It's one thing to have a bad season. But Warren's season has been catastrophic.

Still, given his poor relationship with coach Jeff Capel, NBA scouts expect him to declare for this year's draft. When he does, teams are likely to warm up to him a bit. In a draft that's very weak on talent at the 1, Warren is one of the few players capable of playing that position in the pros.

I think and am hoping that Thomas will be different.
