Me too, but Desmond Lee isn't the reason why. I really didn't want a JUCO guard anyways. Too much of a guard cluster here in the same class.

Saw this in an ESPN article posted today...

William Lee Article

quote:

“Growing up I was a big Auburn fan,” Lee said. “But then I kind of grew out of it and as I got older became a big Florida fan. I really like the Gators. Still do. That’s a school I’m looking to that I hope will offer.”


He also said he is looking to decide after this upcoming AAU season. It's good news for us, because we will have a much better shot the shorter he waits. Also multiple sources coming forward saying his blocks were at least in the double digits when their respective teams played them. The 15+ blocks per game rumor has to be complete BS, but it sounds like it is certainly up there. Would be a nice defensive front-court with him and Taylor.

I think it all boils down to who our staff values more between him, Haas, Turman, Cofer, and guys like that.

The more and more I hear about Lee the more I like him. I'd love it if we ended up with any of those guys, but if I had to take one right now I'd take Lee or Turman. Sucks that we finally have all this big man interest and can only take 1, maybe 2 at most.

Sucks that we have all this talent in state and no momentum from our team that makes these kids want to play for us. A kid like Lee says he grew up a Bama fan and grew out of it. Where they do that at? He should already be committed.

All three of the potential Player of the Year candidates were 3-stars (Oladipo, McDermott, Burke).

Also this year's NBA Rookie of the year was a 2-star.

Just wondering, but is there a reason you bring that up or just a random factoid?

I know you guys probably wont care but I found this video on D. Mostella. Now ive seen him play in person and I didn't know he had athletic ability like this.

Anyone care to update? It's probably just about his visit with us and Collins in-home visit.

Looking at the transfer list for those who can play immediately and saw David Pellom of George Mason. He's a 6'8' F averaging 10.4 ppg on 68.5% shooting, he's not a great rebounder at 6.1 rpg on 27 minutes, but it's better than anyone we have now. He's also a senior that would free up his scholarship for the 2014 class. I say we give him a very good look.

Here's a couple Norris update and highlight video links.

Article and Game Highlights

Future 150 Camp Highlights

Looks like he might be able to play the collegiate 3 spot offensively. I'm starting to come around with him being a possible future player for us. We do need some length at the wing spot for when Cooper and Levi leave. Still not 100% sure if he could be effective in our press or if he has the lateral quickness to guard collegiate 3s.

6'1" guard. Has some pretty bad stats other than a decent 3pt% to be garnering such interest (38%). 6.5 ppg on 37% shooting in 27 mpg.
