Tirus Smith, Bball commit

[jdubb66]

Long athletic inside guy. Needs development but definitely has high upside. Not done growing but listed at 6'8, 6'9" depending on where you look. Has really good quickness inside.

Well, you know coach brings them in over the summer to see if they can play. If they can't, they move on.

Floyd recruiting....

I could be wrong on my count again, but I thought we had one official ride open for next year (Artis). Osborne is on scholarship this year, even though he is likely red-shirting. So, if all five of these guys sign and\or are eligible, we would be over by four. This means the expectation is that a big group from this years' team will not be on next years. Plus, we haven't gotten a commitment from a big man yet.

That's why he never talks about them publicly until he's sure they're going to stick.

He can't talk about them publicly until they've signed LOI's.

I think it was meant as a sarcastic answer given the very public and bad blood affair of Hamilton a couple of years ago and now Swiggy who we never even saw his first opening tip off in a Miner uniform. Then there are the other recruits who fans will never know about for whatever reason Floyd let them go for.
