Perhaps the biggest storyline coming out of the first day of the early signing period was Michael Chandler’s decommitment from Xavier, which was first reported by Brian Snow of Scout.com.
The 6-foot-10 Chandler had previously committed to Louisville and then pledged to Xavier during a late-October visit.
Word on the street is that UConn may now be in the lead for the No. 4 center in the Class of 2011.
“I’m not sure he’s put any thought into it,” Lawrence (IN) North coach Jack Keefer said briefly Thursday morning by phone. “He’s kind of trying to get ready for his season.”
Chandler could end up signing in the spring, but we’ll have to see how it plays out. Check back for updates.
