I got some more interesting news on Oscar Friday night. Oscars camp is very divided at this point and is causing quite a friction. The Mancino family is strongly pushing Oscar to UK and UK is Oscars preference. Oscars handler/guardian, however, is strongly pushing for WVU. He has essentially become very obnoxious with the whole scenario. He will not even talk to or be cordial with anyone but WVU. When WVU is in town, he invites them over, cooks steaks, has nice sit downs, etc. He refused to even take Oscar on his visit to UK, instead the Mancino family took him this past weekend. The Mancino family still believes Oscar chooses UK in the end, but his guardian is doing everything in his power to prevent that from happening including bashing UK and making sure Oscar knows every possible negative scenario about UK. If this is the case, it almost sounds like his so called guardian/handler may have other reasons for bashing UK, like money passing under the table?

I dont know his guardian at all, but I am close with the Mancinos. Its certainly possible, but I have no proof and I have not heard anything like that. I know he has very good relationships with that staff from working with Sags in the past too. The Mancinos are telling Oscar that all of his dreams are right in front of him with Kentucky. They are pushing very hard for UK. His guardian wants nothing to do with UK. I was told two more things last night. 1) Sags is going to the NBA after this season and if not will play over seas. If he was staying at WVU, Oscar would be a lock for WVU. They are very very close. 2) Scott Drew told Oscar that if he isnt coming to Baylor to just go to Kentucky not WVU hahaha. He used the term, "Its a no brainer". I thought that was funny. Little negative, in conference, recruiting there.
