Embiid no show
How do you not show, when you live 5 minutes down the street?
Dissapointing, Could have made an impact.

Can he not show up to another game? A more interesting game perhaps?

What's TFA, and is Orlando Dauda a basketball player? A Google search on him turns up nothing.

That's not completely true. I did a google search and found this thread. Google also suggested Orlando Audi.

There is some thought he "might" show up for The badger game, but I'll believe it when(if) it happens

I think "TFA Orlando" is a school.

I think we have a very good shot at getting Johnson, who is further along in his development than Embid.

Embiid and his advisor have apparently chosen another place for him. If so, Embiid was right not to come to the UF game on UF's unofficial dime.
As for losing him, UF offered so I am not sure what else UF could have done.

No way. Embid had a committable offer and there's definitely room for more than three players in this class. I don't think we'll get Parker, but with all the talent in the '13 class, I don't think the coaches will stop recruiting until they run out of prospects or get five commitments. I believe we'll make a good run at Johnson and possibly a SF or SG.

So now he has pushed back his announcement until Wed. Don't think it changes much. I would love to hear why his advisor prefers Kansas.

They are definitely not considering academics...a girl I went to school with got into KU with a 6 on the ACT.
