Diarra is a senior who is graduating. He can enter the portal whenever he wants. May 1 is not his deadline to enter.how's this for a prognostication.
Mahaney is visiting this week and the deadline to enter the portal is next wednesday 5/1. Hurley will give Mahaney until then to commit. If he commits, then Diarra enters the portal. If he does not commit, then Diarra stays.
i didnt think it was an either/or with Mahaney and Diarra, but at this point what is Diarra waiting for other than to see what Mahany does?

I agree with the first half, but I don't think it's a case of that being for Diarra's benefit but some other guys on the roster. I have a hard time seeing Diarra transferringhow's this for a prognostication.

correctI think that's changed. May 1 is for everyone this year. At least that's what I read on twitter.
no but hopefully something like thisDid I miss something? Are we waiting for a Diarra press conference to announce his intentions?
Basically. He said on the Aaron Torres podcast he would make an announcement. He hasn't. We are still waiting.Did I miss something? Are we waiting for a Diarra press conference to announce his intentions?
You are correct. Good call. I just saw the article below. Why are they changing this so late? Typical NCAA!I think that's changed. May 1 is for everyone this year. At least that's what I read on twitter.
Why are they all confirmed for next year and Diarra isn't?Unless something happens in the next few days, the following players are confirmed for next year:
Reed Jr.
Nowell
Abraham
Johnson
Stewart
Ball
Ross
Singare
If we can get Karaban and Diarra to come back and McNeeley and Mahaney, we may have a fantastic year.
Diarra may not use his last year of eligibility. He could go to Europe. I expect him to come back but he would be a fifth-year player.Why are they all confirmed for next year and Diarra isn't?
Maybe you're right. We have clips of him working out and he hasn't made visits. We need him and his experience.Diarra may not use his last year of eligibility. He could go to Europe. I expect him to come back but he would be a fifth-year player.
You’re kidding right? You think Hurley values Mahaney over Diarra? As others have said I think Hass is debating the extra year. I hope he comes back. We could use his leadership. I don’t think there’s any way Danny would take Aidan at Diarra‘s expense. Both would have big roles on next year‘s team.how's this for a prognostication.

Not sure what you mean. I didn’t say Hurley wants Hass to leave/transfer and he would never force him to. The question is will Hass choose to leave/transfer if Mahaney commits. Of course we all want both.You’re kidding right? You think Hurley values Mahaney over Diarra?
That there has been zero public confirmation by a single coach, player, beat reporter, or national reporter. Even if we want to go by the post on SC it said he was making the announcement on a podcast that night and then the only quotes since then from him were saying he's still undecidedIt was reported Hass told the staff he returning.
What’s the confusion here?
Where was this reported? Diarra's own interview statements last thursday said he hadn't decided but expected to by the end of the week. To my knowledge that time has come and gone without a public statement.It was reported Hass told the staff he returning.

Is that expected ?That there has been zero public confirmation by a single coach, player, beat reporter, or national reporter.
When someone decides to come back and use their 5th year, yes. Just look on Twitter, there's posts every day about it happening. Latrell Wrightsell Jr was one notable example this weekIs that expected ?
