That is true, but for 'context' we need to remember that as of now we have only ONE scholarship to give (that would be Bond's) for 2018.
I have no idea if the plan is to keep that scholarship in Murphy's 'back pocket' and give it in April.
I'd assume there is a very good chance we sign no one next week.

RE: 2018/9 EMU Men's Basketball Recruiting
My big question is: Are there any CENTERS on our radar? Is Othello Smith a center or really a forward?
(Or a center who needs a lot of weight work to gain say 25 lbs?).

RE: 2018/9 EMU Men's Basketball Recruiting
BTW, I was doing a little Googling using Verbalcommits info.
We are recruiting: T.J. Bickerstaff.
With the help of Wikipedia: Bernie T. Bickerstaff had a couple coaching stints with the Washington Bullets/Wizards.
Bernie's son is: J. B. Bickerstaff, a coach with the Memphis Grizzlies.
Curious if T.J. is of this Bickerstaff lineage?

TJ is related to Bernie. I believe he is Bernie's nephew.
Memphis is among the schools recruiting TJ pretty hard.

Not sure whether he is interested in EMU at this point or visa versa.
Interesting and interesting about Fuller. Fuller was a good prospect but had academic issues and is now starting his JUCO career.

RE: 2018/9 EMU Men's Basketball Recruiting
Well, fall signing period has passed and apparently no signee. This isn't a surprise. We have noted that we have only one scholarship to give it as the sole senior is Bond.
Bond will need to be replaced next season but his successor, Ty Groce, is on the team there is no great urgency.
So one can fast forward 12 months and see: Jackson, Harris, Groce, Thompson and Minnie and look toward a very good, very experienced team.

RE: 2018/9 EMU Men's Basketball Recruiting
I don't follow MBB recruiting like I used to, but this is something I doubt I've seen before.
Pundits have said the 2018 MI senior class is very, very good. Indeed, look at the number of recruits going to the high majors.
I count EIGHT seniors going to B1G schools. That is very high. Typical is usually 5 or less, sometimes as few as 2 or 3.

RE: 2018/9 EMU Men's Basketball Recruiting
Interesting JUCO sophomore prospect at Grand Rapids Community College 6'2, 180 guard Curtis Davidson who is apparently lighting it up so far this year scoring wise. Played at Lansing Community College with EMU's Green last year. Davidson was a 2015 Grand Rapids Union graduate.

Steve,
Are we in on Carrington McCaskill? As you know, his dad was a big time EMU player.
