I know we have a basketball recruiting thread and I posted it in there but this is really big time news that I feel deserves it's own thread with celebration. The nation's leading returning scorer Antoine Mason will transfer to AU!!!

Pretty much all but a few. Per Booster Steven Hooks they are basically having open tryouts now. We will either have to process 3 or 2 and Alex Thompson go back to walk on status to get down to the 13 scholly maximum limit.

Crazy. And the fact he's pulling this off by recruiting via third party is nuts.

It's his reputation, Person's reputation as an elite shooter, Person's NBA player and coach pedigree, plus Chuck doing a hell of a job selling all of that on the recruiting trail.

Well Coach Person is flat killing it early as a recruiter.

I'm so happy with what we're doing in basketball. I can't wait to watch the ncaa tournament and actually have a team in it that i really care about.

Everyone's concern about Person was his lack of recruiting experience and I guess he's proven all of us wrong and I couldn't be more pleased!
