I think the question about the Vols still being in play came from the VQ report saying we haven't offered. I think BTO has a little bit of wishful thinking about that changing. I assume we are out of room and an offer won't come

I'm with you here, especially since he would like to make his decision in a couple weeks time. Unless we have some unexpected attrition soon, there is no room at the inn for Fabyon.

It has been but a VQ report came out saying that we pulled our offer to him, and basically said we have no more room for you,


So I figured Fabyon going forward wouldn't include us if this were true, but he may just enjoy listing another high major as being interested. Who knows.

I'm still of the mindset that if this kid wants to come here you find a way to make room. To me hes a player at a position of need and immediately makes this team better. Jmo.

You are correct, im definitely still hoping we land him. As you said though unless something changes as of now we don't have a scholarship for him.

I know it's probably not CCM style, but if Fabyon wanted to come here id tell Reese to go to prep school, or still see about miller transferring. Fabyon would bring much more than either of those 2 to this team next year. I understand though that he most likely won't though, but hey I can still hope.

But all those guys except Yemi will be gone after next season. Need forwards more at this point IMO.

If you're looking at future years then yes I agree; however it doesnt look likely well be getting a big man in this class. I dont want to add anymore "project" type guys, I think we're last that.

I was looking more at immediately, and worry about the post when that time comes. IMO you add that immediate impact guard and were a 25-35 ranked team to a 10-15 ranked team.

You never know, some think stokes sticks around for 13' so if that happens and yemi progresses still, and you bring in nichols, now your post problems are pretty much solved. Jmo though.

Yemi (while played well the last two games) hasn't shown consistency and Hall is basically one more strike and done, not too mention Hall is inconsistent also. If Hall gets kicked off, the team if royally screwed.

You also forget that McRae, Edwards, Moore, and Golden can all play the 2 also.

That too. We most likely lose 3/4 of our posts next year and are only leading for one in 2013.

How much 2 will golden be playing? Unless Armani proves to be a freshman stud PG, the answers probably 0.

Edwards is a 3 I doubt hell see 1 minute at the 2 unless there's injuries or something or maymon becomes a 3.

Jordy is more effective defensively at the 3 IMO.

As I've said our best rotation next year would've been to add a true pg. the 1 and 2 are our weakest positions and the root of most this teams issues are at the 1&2. The post is this teams strength.

Same can be said for Pierre Jackson, but ask Baylor where they'd have been without him?

Some of our best players over the past few years were underrated in high school. It's tough to find and evaluate all the talent in basketball recruiting.

If there were a difference-maker type post player available, I'd say go for him. If not, I would rather pickup Harris than waste a scholly on a big body project.

We don't have a scholly anyhow, so the point is moot.
