Well, this worked out for the best
We signed Devin McBride last year as highly ranked Juco guard. He had previously been dismissed from Binghamton and thus ended up at a Juco. Why not give the kid a shot? Well then he got dismissed from his Juco team and we parted ways with him. He went to South Carolina State where he played sparingly in 4 early season games and then did not play again. My assumption is that he was dismissed again, although I couldn't find confirmation of this (i.e. I guess he could have been injured). Still, I'd rather stick with high character kids even if it means a few less wins.

As renagade as the Binghamton program has been lately, if this kid got thrown out of there, he must really be some piece of work.

Here's an article about what happened to another member of that "fine" recruiting class at Binghamton:
