After Tyndall added 8 scholarship players to the roster in April and May last year, looks like we are in for another big spring of roster fun. Some names have already been thrown out and there is already talk about some of Tyndall's slaw being told to look around.

Should be an interesting spring. Most seem to think we will sign 3-5 players this spring.

Derek Reese, F
Armani Moore, F

Admiral Schofield, F
Shembari Phillips, G
Lamonte Turner, G (committed 4/28)

If somehow we got Davis that would be huge. PG and 2 big men are biggest needs.

How have y'all not lost scholarships because of the APR?

The player turnover must include multiple graduates over recent years that help out the total number.

Pel had Arkansas screwed up so bad that Mike couldn't purge the roster when he arrived or add pieces that he needed for a like two years.

If we can get on the radar of an athletic big I'll be ecstatic. A PG or two wouldn't hurt either.

Have they mentioned anything on his current relationships with any players/recruits?

Saw some rumors of Owens transferring? Might have been before the hire tho, actually think he has some potential. Might as well tell Carmichael to look around, that dude isn't going to be much and he seemed married to the idea of playing for Tyndall.

Tennessee will attempt to get involved with Tyler Harris (brother of former Vol Tobias Harris). He named Tennessee as part of his top 10 today.

Thorne and Lee will also be Barnes targets, but they are expected to be very highly recruited.

Tennessee expected to hire Charlotte assistant Desmond Oliver.

Oliver coached grad. transfer Mike Thorne at Charlotte. Thorne is the best big man on the transfer market.

From VQ

-6-10 PF Ebuka Izundu requests release from Charlotte.

-Another name to watch is 6'10" grad transfer from San Fransisco, Mark Tollefsen.  Nice hops with a good outside stroke.  A little thin but seems to be a pretty good prospect. I have heard we have offered.
