      I wish. It's a weird situation. Pretty sure he moved to Seattle already. No idea where he will end up now.

      • If the McDermott scholarship was already promised why wait till signing day to announce it? If it was a done deal why not announce a year ago?

              No, we still have another scholarship to give.

                Well, I guess we're in a pretty good spot then since we'd be thrilled with either of the two we've offered but also content banking it, so we can afford to wait it out as long as it takes.

                • What does everyone think of McD getting a scholorship? I’ve only seen him on the floor a few times, so I can’t really judge whether it looks like he can contribute. Personally, I’d rather go after more transfers, or save it for future transfers. However, I’m also not sure about the implications on class balance. I know McD is a transfer, but may or may not be a transfer who can make an impact.

                  • You can’t promise scholarships and not give them.

                    Im fine with it. It’s bad for a balance though. Our junior class is huge.

                    • They must be pretty confident in Biggie getting a year back, that takes one out of that class and puts it with Phyfe and Ty.

                        True, but it raises the question of whether he merits it to begin with. I’d like to see the overall talent level of the team go upwards. Hopefully he proves to be a Bohannon like outside shooting threat. If he has the quicks to occasionally get to the rim, or create some space for himself, that would be fantastic.

                          I think the answer to that is pretty clear. Not sure why coach would promise something to a kid who out of high school wasn't talented enough to get an offer from us and it doesn't seem like much has changed. Its a very confusing situation.

                            That’s an open question. The staff had a year of college tape on this guy. That’s reason to think he may be able to contribute. Time will tell, and I hope they’re right vs. not having an open spot when a potentially decent transfer becomes available.

                                Welp... thats closer to home for him and P5. It'll be tough to top that even though the Rebels aren't exactly a blue blood program.
