I think that was Brian sitting in the recruit area at the St. Joe's game. I'm sure he appreciated the big game feel at Cintas.

I know he gave a verbal last fall (October) ... has he signed a LOT as yet?
Where do we stand with him?

And to think that they will compete with Derrick, BJ, CJ, Dante, Adrion, and Jason
for PT....
Naw, Sean ain't leaving this vineyard for a program that will be on probation, ineligible for the dance, and have a limit on recruiting and scholarships.
Book it!

That was Walsh at the St.Joes game, I sit right there. There was another recruit that you can tell they asked Walsh to welcome, no clue who he was though.

Wise: don't overlook Jameal McClean will be eligible next year; frankly Walsh seems an ideal redshirt candidate given the abundant talent at SG/SF spots.

What were McClean's stats like at Tulsa? Is he another CJ type guy who will get a lot of minutes right away?

Jamel is more of a Derrick Brown type player. He's 6'8 230, ultra-athletic.

I know as a true freshman at Tulsa, in limited minutes, he had a few double-doubles and was one of their top rebounders and shot blockers.

I think he will definitely have an impact next year.

We will be absolutely loaded in the front court next year with Love, Brown, Anderson, McLean, and Frease.

Oh my! Yep, sure did forget about J Mac; As a Freshman at Tulsa he averaged 17 minutes a game, 5 boards a game and 6.5 ppg.
He also shot 55% from the field and was 42% behind he line.
He was just 56% at the free throw line, but not to worry, as soon as Millersdad get his feet corrected he'll jump into the 75% range.
But Joe, I wouldn't be forecasting any red shirt decisions ... seems to me that Sean says minutes depend on practice, and he will see a lot of Brian between June and November

It appears that pretty soon we will catch up and pass UD as a basketball power.
