So as we all know, Tyson Watson is announcing on Friday, April 17th. What is kind of surprising, though, is that Tyson claims he doesn't actually have his decision made yet. He will supposedly be deciding internally by Monday, getting this info over to the individual making his commitment video along with some short game clips, and then making it public on Friday. ALSO, don't read too much into Tyson's tweet about wanting to play with Harmon. It was said in the same way Buddin said it to Reed: Jokingly as a show of support, but something they would enjoy IF best for both.

My friend that made Gabe Nealy's edit last week reached out to me with proof of this new convo, so the sourcing is as direct as it can be for a non-insider like me. I made it clear to him that he should only reveal what he's comfortable with and that even if he did choose to tell me what school Tyson tells him to make the video for on Monday, that I would not reveal it anywhere. I plan to stand by that and it would ruin the kid's moment otherwise, but I did still want to share this part on the board so that it helps everyone better understand why we haven't heard any murmurs about which way he is leaning. It's because he literally hasn't even decided yet (which is actually kinda odd to me as idk why someone would say they're announcing on a set date before having decided, but maybe that's just me).

On the other hand, it's also possible that he just doesn't want to reveal his decision to the editing kid too early, but has actually made his decision internally (hence Corey's FutureCast possibly). So, I just wanna put that possibility out there too. Take this with a grain of salt and trust Corey over me.

Edit/Clarification: Though my friend is an MSU fan account and kids mostly use him for MSU commitment edits, he does other schools too. As you could see by the Nealy one, he's fairly talented. Point is, don't read into the fact that Tyson is asking an MSU kid for the edit. It doesn't imply it's MSU just based on that conclusion alone.
