Gonna be awful young and not very deep. Hope the talent is there to thrive this year.
Looks like we still need a TUnji, a McKinley and a Beard so there are enough bodies to practice.
The not very deep thing really concerns me. I'm really hoping Ricardo gets that year of eligibility to make 11 scholarship players. Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I'm wondering if there's a reason behind not offering Perez -- i.e. maybe they have a good feeling about Ricardo's situation?
Current roster by class-
Sr- Taylor, NDour, Willis
Jr- Setty
So- Campbell, Mompremier
Fr- Harley, Crute, Laster, Taylor, Simmons(RS)
Currently we have 11 scholarship players with 10 eligible for next season. There are 2 scholarships remaining and SP has said that he is fine with adding those 2 to the 2015 class with the 3 that will be available from the seniors.
Ric's situation doesn't effect Perez because Ric's scholarship would only be for 1 yr. I think SP is hesitant to sign Perez for a couple of reasons- with Harley and Simmons' red shirts the freshmen class is already at 5, and I'm guessing he thinks he can get a much stronger player at a position of greater need in 2015. Perez is a 6'4"ish SG. So is Crute, Laster and Taylor.
Hopefully Ric gets a 5th year and who knows, maybe Owens comes crawling back. (haha, j/k)
