It’s also consistent with what Ma Beasley said (committed to Charlotte, should take all 5 visits) which is good.
New article in rivals says that Huggins and Delonte will visit TMB this weekend and offer a schollie. Resist the devil. 
moment of truth…

Make sure Ma Beasley puts some plastic over her couch if Huggins is coming to their house. He is as greasy as they come.
Nows the time to flood the Beasley home with Charlotte gear this weekend.
Do we still have his verbal commitment?
I guess a verbal doesn’t amount to a hill of beans (no pun intended) if Huggins can just pay a visit. How does Huggins look at himself in the mirror? He’s got his knife deep in Bobby’s back and now he’s going to twist it.
He can’t just pay a visit. He plans on evaluating TMB at the Real Deal AAU tournament in Fayetteville, AR this weekend. Bobby can just as well be at this tournament too.

Maybe Huggins will show up drunk and make an ass out of himself. If not, he may still make an ass out of himself, even if sober.

hill is just going because it is legal for him to drive. and speaking of driving when beasley visits here, since we are the home of nascar we should make sure this car is driving around campus. talk about a sign!

:lmao:
According to the Oak Hill Coach (rivals story on KSU site), Hill and Huggins will visit him at Oak Hill next week. They will watch him work-out and most likely offer a scholarship if they don’t already do that this weekend at Real Deal in AR.

4/15/06: Charlotte has recently visited with Beasley at Oak Hill Academy, and Kansas State is expected to come there Tuesday.
We’re still doing all we can to get him here.
Rivals 4/14/06 Beasley decommits from Charlotte, opens up recruiting. From his interview at the Real Deal on the Hill AAU tourney:

[QUOTE]With all the confusion as to whether Beasley is still committed to Charlotte with the departure of assistant coach Delonte Hill to Kansas State, Beasley did his best to set the record straight with Rivals.com.
“Basically, I’m still committed to Charlotte, but I’m looking at other schools,” Beasley said. “With (Coach) Hill leaving, the bond is not the same. I still love Charlotte and the city, and the city loves me. It might not be the best move, though, for me to go there. More than likely I’ll end up at Kansas State, but I’m not really sure.”
With such a contradictory quote, Beasley admitted that his situation is complicated.
“I understand there is going to be conflict and controversy, but I just have to deal with it,” he added.
Charlotte has recently visited with Beasley at Oak Hill Academy, and Kansas State is expected to come there Tuesday.
The 6-foot-8, 235-pound forward, named North Carolina, Syracuse, UCLA, Louisville, Connecticut, Georgia Tech, LSU and Florida as schools that he shares a mutual interest in.
Whether committed or not committed to Charlotte or Kansas State, those two schools are definitely at the top of Beasley’s list.
“You know, I guess I am decommitted, but Charlotte is still at the top of my list with Kansas State,” he said. “I’m just looking for a school that can help me get in and out. I want to go to college for a year of two before I go to the NBA, and Charlotte might be that school.”
So let’s suffice it to say that Beasley is no longer officially committed to Charlotte.

Where is this coming from???
What ever happened to “I’m not decommitted from Charlotte.” I’m tired of all the mind games!
He’s obviously being pulled in different directions. It sounds like it hurts him to say he’s no longer committed to Charlotte. His mom wants him to come to Charlotte. His AAU coach (Malone) sounds like he’s fine with him coming to Charlotte. But he feels like he needs to follow Dalonte and be part of the package with Mayo, Walker, Pope at KSU. It’s about hype and branding. The adidas people want it to happen.
Write up from Real Deal, it’s good to see that our boy’s doing well. Keep it up Mike even through these hard times.
DC Assault cruises to victory over St. Louis Majestics
The trio of Michael Beasley, Austin Freeman and Nolan Smith controlled the lopsided game.
Beasley scored 19 points in limited action on 5 of 9 shooting including 1 of 2 from the arc and 8 of 10 from the line. He also had 5 rebounds, but most impressive were his 5 assists.
Beasley is such a threat as a power player, because of his ability to deliver difficult passes with touch. He sees the diagonal pass and is a very good post feeder from the high post. He also had a number of nice drives to the basket, going both left and right where he carried the ball through contact.
The trick for Beasley is to stay focused and give a consistent effort. When he does this, he is definitely one of the top players in the country. When he doesn’t, he is sluggish and ordinary.
Looking in very good physical shape, Freeman was bouncy and explosive off the dribble. He demonstrated an extra gear on a couple occasions where he crossed over his defender and made some tough finishes at the basket with both his right and left hand. Always a threat from deep and in the mid-range, it was nice to see Freeman so effective around the basket as a finisher and rebounder.
Smith played a solid floor game and had some impressive steals in the DC Assault press. Smith did force it to the rim and came up empty on a couple occasions. He was at his best when he was not forcing the issue with the dribble and finding cutters along the baseline with sharp passes.
