New B-ball Prospect

(from BV's blog):

A new name has also surfaced on the UNT basketball recruiting front. Cowley County (Kan.) Community College power forward Eric McKinney visited UNT late last month and is at Arkansas State this weekend, according to Rivals.com. McKinney averaged 11 points and seven rebounds a game last season.

We definitely need size which he has. Doesn't have a great stat line though. Other than ASU I wonder who we're up against.

Does Jones hit the recruiting trail harder now that he knows he's not going to LSU ?? I'm just saying it had to be in the back of his and maybe even possible recruits heads.

I'm hoping the LSU spurn pisses him off and he coaches and recruits with a fire this season. Maybe showing the Tigers they made the wrong choice. I like to have him here , but would never blame him if his old roots ever came a calling.

I believe we have the talent next year to compete for the division once again even with our thin frontline. Especially if Odufwa is as good as advertised. The shakey guys we've gotten so far is a concern, but it's much too early to get too worried. Last year I think we had 1 player at this point...everyone was worried...and then we arguably landed JJ's best class.

Also noticed that Fort Worth OD Wyatt product , Montrell McDonald is on that team. A very good 6'6 180 SF who averaged something like 20+ pts 12 reb and 5 dimes at OD Wyatt. Signed with TeXas A&M CC before transfering to Bridgton Academy ( ME) where he averaged 17 and 8.

Maybe he wants to come back home ?? Probably couldn't quite fill the shoes that we would of expected from Flemmings , but not a bad plan B !!

Same school Cardell McFarland played , so I'm sure Johnny has a few connections that way
