The biggest story in college basketball right now is where an 18-year-old from Canada who has yet to play a minute of college basketball will decide to go to school for a year.

Andrew Wiggins, the latest savior in sneakers, is choosing between Kansas, North Carolina, Kentucky and Florida State. He will make one coach and one fanbase really happy. He will disappoint three others. That’s what we know.

On Friday, Keith Jenkins, who is the Editorial Graphics Producer at ESPN (according to his LinkedIn page), tweeted that “Source tells me Andrew Wiggins, the No. 1 recruit in the 2013 100, will commit to Florida State. Nothing official as of yet.” Here’s his series of tweets (via Kentucky Sports Radio).

Those tweets have since been deleted. Jenkins changed his Twitter handle from @KJenkins_ESPN to @MrKeithJenkins. The last Wiggins-related tweet he has not deleted came on March 28 when his “source” told him Wiggins was visiting with Kentucky coach John Calipari. That was also reported here and here. There’s an unconfirmed report (that I just made up) that Jenkins’ source also told him Wiggins is from Canada.

This is what we know, from Wiggins:


This is what happens when 18-year-olds make fans and Editorial Graphic Producers wait. We want to know. We want to speculate. We want sources. We want to know before they know.

But really, only the 18-year-old and his family know. Sometimes the family doesn’t even know. Sometimes the 18-year-old doesn’t even know yet.

Wiggins could be waiting just to make us wait. The late signing period does not end until May 15. He could like the attention. Or, most likely, Wiggins is waiting because he has not made up his mind yet. And he’s not the first 18-year-old basketball prodigy to make everyone wait.
