Rodney Purivs is back on the recruiting board.

The 6-foot-3, 185-pound guard from Raleigh's Upper Room Christian Academy told HighSchoolOT.com through a text message Monday that he has rescinded his commitment to Louisville.

Purvis committed to Louisville last December. He is considered a five-star prospect by all major recruiting websites.

The rising senior has a number of offers from high major programs from across the country, but Purvis said he does not have any favorites as of yet.

Baylor, Duke, Georgia Tech, Maryland, Memphis, NC Central, NC State, South Carolina, Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest and Xavier have all extended offers to Purvis. Other schools may begin recruiting Purvis now that he has opened the process back up.

Purvis decided to rescind his commitment after Louisville assistant coach Tim Fuller left for Missouri. But Purivs has said he is still open to returning to Louisville.

"they lost that player" ... "THAT player"? Is his "crime" of transferring too great for his name to be used again by NCSU fans?

NC State now has an open spot at Guard now that they lost that player last week. It could be that he didn't originally commit to State due to the competition at PG. Now that one guard has transferred out, it could have changed his mind.

and the only thing that has changed out of all those teams is NC State.

  18. NickStevensHSOT: Btw stating facts doesn't make someone a hater. Haters fail to see reality despite the facts. Like I said, Lebron is the best in the world.
      — Wednesday, June 19, 2013 12:40 AM
  20. NickStevensHSOT: Don't get me wrong, Lebron is the BEST player in the WORLD. But he goes missing at key times too often. Always has.

  24. NickStevensHSOT: Here's my beef with Heat "fans": They're all talking about Lebron right now. Ray & Bosh won that game in crunch time, not Lebron.

  28. NickStevensHSOT: On another note if it's a foul in the first minute, it's a foul in the last minute, it's a foul in OT. The rules don't change with the time.

  30. ZachMayoHSOT: Free throws, free throws, free throws. It all comes down the free throws. Make them at the end and you're golden.

  32. NickStevensHSOT: But hey, #shoutout to the NBA for producing such an amazing game. Can't wait to see what they have planned for us on Thursday. #Fixed
