Duece Finch
Rivals has a video piece showing highlights of him and one of their national recruiting guys talking about his commitment to UK.
If true its a very nice pickup. And in the shadows of Papa John's as well.

I just watched the video. I am holding my horses on this one. The video says UK got a good pick up and goes on to say great things about Finch but there is no Finch interview or any direct quote of him saying he has committed to UK.
Yesterday Drummond of CatsPaws did an interview with Finch and there was no mention of a commitment. Somehow, I guess by accident, Rivals put Finch up on their front page UK commitment list and on their board as a 'soft commit'. Finch was then almost immediately taken off their UK commitment boards.
It seems from that little blip a lot of folks have taken it and run. Like I said I am holding off this until I see something with Finch in it saying he has committed.

Courier Journal said it was premature. The news outlets went with the story based on the video. They said he hasn't committed to anyone as of yet. So, its false, unfortunately.

Good call UedK. Looks like Rivals made a boo-boo and through a glitch in their processes the video guys thought he committed and did a video on him.
He is not committed.
And the TV's ran with it. We know where they get their news from now.

Same thing happened during the Billy Donovan to UK fiasco.

Yeah, Just minutes ago Drummond over on rivals just posted this on their premium board: (it's also on their free board)
"Just talked to Deuce. He has not committed to anyone. He said he's been getting bombarded with calls. He isn't sure how the rumor got out there. As for the mysterious AMP piece, I'm trying to get some more info on that from Rivals." (end of quote)
Now, I (UedK) would really like for Deuce Finch to make a UK commitment as I am sure most UK fans would also. I hope this does not cauce Mr. Finch to get a negative vibe about UK. Looking at his vids, he looks like a bigger version of our Tony Dixon and he can catch a pass as good as any WR.
Same thing happened during the Billy Donovan to UK fiasco.
He didn't? I don't visit the basketball boards that much. :icon_smile:
