I am a student at UNC chapel Hill and I heard thaddeus young is visiting here soon. Does anyone know when he is visiting? I am a hardcore buckeyes fan (from columbus), despite going to unc, and i want Young to go to OSU. So, i want to see him on campus and give him some advice....hehe

I have not heard when he is visiting North Carolina on an official visit. The feeling I get is that recruiting is not his #1 concern at the moment.
Per Lamb on BN....
He feels we have the recruiting momentum with Young and its possible we could land him.

I mean, if you're Matta here, all you really need to say to the kid is, do you, or do you not want to be a part of this potential NC squad?
Secondly, is Young visiting this weekend with the other two? I haven't heard anything that would hint at that. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Let me be completely clear for those of you, who are not familiar with Young.....the scoop on him is that right now he is not focusing on visits and has had North Carolina the leader for some time now, with that said, Matta has done an outstanding job of just getting him to come to OSU for a visit. As far as I know, he has not taken any official visits and this would be his first. As of right now Young is trying to work out the details for a visit this weekend, but it is not set in stone as of today. Our odds are about 30% right now, if you get him on campus with the other top prospects......your guess is as good as mine. Matta has been able to make quite an impression on Young this late in the recruiting stage, its almost unbelievable to get a prospect like Young to visit OSU because historically its been hard to get those types of players out of the south.

Nice pics. Young is without a doubt a player I'd really love to see join this astounding class. As I posted on Sucknuts earlier today, if we can nab Conley and Oden this weekend (which IMO looks very promising) then we can start having the Spiece boys call up Young and letting him know the Fab 4 has been assembled and is waiting for their 5th fabulous player!
Matta and Cook have done a tremendous job so far, I can't wait to see how this all unfolds!

From BSB...Thaddeus will not be visiting this weekend due to AAU workouts. That does not mean that a visit is out of the question though. He is obviously much more focused on improving his game at this point, as opposed to recruiting. Young is interested in business school. He is not however caught up in the idea of the "Thad 5". He will make a decision based on what is best for him, with academics being a high priority.

This interview is consistent with the impression he has been giving and thats the fact that his recruitment is not the priority for him right now.
I hope we can still get him on campus later this month.

Nothing new on a possible visit to OSU at this point. Spiece Indy Heat (Oden, Conley, Cook) will play against Thaddeus Young and his team Memphis Pump and Run on Saturday at the May Classic in Indiana.
