This from ESPN:


What they're losing: The Trojans lose their top three scorers -- PG Solomon Bozeman, SG Alex Garcia-Mendoza and SG Matt Mouzy -- and need to find a solid replacement for their backcourt.
What they're adding: Center Michael Javes (Jacksonville, Fla./Arlington Country Day) may be one of the biggest steals in the 2011 class and has a chance to be a major impact as a freshman. SG Reggie Fondren (Memphis, Tenn./Northeast Miss. CC) is a juco transfer who should also provide some scoring punch.
What it equals: Arkansas-Little Rock, which won its tournament championship in dramatic fashion, is bringing in a strong frontline that should be one of the best in the conference. If the Trojans can find a consistent outside threat, they may have a chance to be in this same position next year.

very cool! where on the site did you find this?

That is a pretty strong statement to make. I hope they know what they are talking about.

Me too!

I don't want to sound like a Sad Sack, but he hasn't signed with us yet. On the other hand, I wouldn't mind a front line of WN, Gus, and Javes.

And let's not forget (maybe) Hooper.

No mention of White or Neighbour in that piece. Hmmmmm....

It's really rather amazing. WN just disappeared off everyone's radar because he didn't play this year. Everyone just forgot about him. Probably was lucky for us. Sporting News still had him in their Top 15 Jucos. How often have we gotten a player like that? Easy question. Never.

What about Solo?

Not sure where Solo was rated. He did originally sign with an SEC school and then went to a Big East school so he obviously was pretty highly regarded. Still don't think he was as highly rated as WN.

ESPN has him as the #55 center in the class.

His grade is 85. In the grade 86 just above him are players signed by BYU, Pepperdine, Hawaii, all schools from better conferences than ours.
Ranked below him are signees with West Virginia, BYU, James Madison and Bowling Green. Looks like he might be a good one.
