PG Dylan Ennis (Tyler's bro) leaving Villanova

[CDu]

So we're sure this is not the reclassify, commit and redshirt plan that was rumored earlier. Meaning if he qualifies by taking the SAT and enrolls, he expects to play next year, not redshirt? That would have been the only scenario where I could see us going after Ennis as well.

Also, I wonder what impact this might have on Dennis Smith's recruitment - he might now want to wait and see if Thornton goes pro after a year (do people think that's possible? For a top 10-20 PG recruit, I think that would be less common but not out of the realm of possibility) -- or he might think that the Cook - Jones backcourt did pretty well, and maybe that's a blueprint for Smith and Thornton to play alongside one another (it also worked out pretty well for Dawkins and Amaker and Williams and Duhon).

I'm quite sure Coach K has mentioned the Williams/Duhon connection. Now that Jones and Cook have won a title together, I'm sure he'll be presenting that to Smith as another example. And, as you mention, there is always the chance that Thornton goes pro after next year anyway, leaving the PG position all to Smith.
