Power Forward Khadeem Lattin NOT coming

[Archies Bat]

There's also the possibility of oversigning with either Miller, Craig, Bunch, a juco, or a senior transfer. We seem to lose at least a player a year to unexpected circumstances.

I'm not as overworried with oversigning as I used to be.  We are getting higher ranked players, and some of those will be drawn to enter the draft early.  Although I hate to see them leave, this is good overall.  In Al's heyday, Larry McNeil, Jim Chones and Maurice Lucas all left early, followed a few years later by Doc. Players leaving early means we have better players when they are here.  Couple that with the increase in Team to Team transfers, feel free to oversign high quality players.

A few thoughts on this...

• Didn't expect Lattin. Would have been a nice player, but I think the staff moved on awhile ago. Hadn't heard us mentioned in months.
  
• McKay is between 6'9" and 6'10" without shoes, as I recall
  
• Cassell seemed between us and Mizzou before UL came into the picture. I think Pitino lands him, though may be disappointed to do so after having two top PGs decommit and Cassell not really being a PG.
  
• Craig would be a surprise. His stock seems to be soaring.
  
• I like our odds with Miller. He got out of Colorado without a commit. I think Buzz goes full-force for him at Madness. We haven't had commits at Madness in a few years. I think this year we could see 2-3.
  
• Miller does look like a more athletic Davante. That doesn't mean he'll be better than Davante. As Murs points out, Davante is incredibly unique, but that doesn't change that Miller has a similar frame and playing style with more athleticism. There are just some things that go Davante's way that other men his size simply can't muster (free throws, wildly off-balance putbacks, etc).

Miller's visit to Colorado is this weekend.

Not every offer is created equally. I'm guessing Hill absolutely has a spot set aside for him if he wants it. I would hazard to guess that Shayok and Cassell have an invitation to demonstrate their interest and Buzz would be willing to oversign for Tory Miller (or potentially pass on Shayok/Cassell). I'd also imagine Buzz has his people scouring the JUCO ranks for a big.

The way Buzz is going after Shayok, I am about 99% sure that his offer is rock solid.

We've obviously been out for awhile but to update, he just committed to Oklahoma.

Only current offers to bigs are now Travon Bunch and Satchel Pierce. It sounds like Bunch's stock is rising and Pierce seemed to enjoy his in home visit with Buzz yesterday. Let's hope we land one or both

Again....I don't think Bunch has a solid offer.  Don't count on it.
