He does need the NCAA approval, but Agau feels good about getting a 6th season. From everything I've heard I would say it is more likely than not he gets an extra season.
Our 2018 season lineup could be really exciting. McMurray could decide to test, but as was said being undersized and only playing one semester I doubt he goes pro after a half-season when he would start and play much more during senior year. He still has multiple things he needs to develop in addition to his scoring.
As ECM said, Douglas seems to have a higher ceiling and is much more polished. Landrum was very much a volume scorer in HS. He needs to become more disciplined and much more consistent of a shooter before you can expect him to be a starter or big minute guy. We are also in it for a few real good 2018 prospects.

Douglas is going to be a stud for us. Great kid from a military family with a great work ethic. I cant wait to see him play- he's everything we want from a student athlete on and off the court, and the offers he had (Marquette, FSU, Michigan, Oregon) speak to the kind of talent he has

Young will probably get a schollie when we get off restrictions. He is a good prospect. He has a higher ceiling than an Everett Ray. Also, has a lower floor. He is real athletic and has a good motor so he already has that going for him.
It sure doesn’t seem that we are going after another Big very hard. If Jarrey stays in the draft we might go for a grad-transfer big or Wing/Big. Emphasis seems to be on adding another guard or two.
Couldn't help but come back to this thread simply because of the title...looking like it's possible we could have only 6 scholarship players returning from last year's roster (depending on whether Jarrey returns). Looks like only McMurray, Whitt, Douglas, Mike, Chargois & Ray after news of Landrum's moving on). I'm assuming Jarrey will be back so there is still a lot of work to be done and a challenge ahead to build next year's team chemistry.
So much activity on the trail right now in all areas (HS, Juco, Transfers & Grad Transfers) but hard to remain patient and certainly some good news sure would be nice.

So now the Agau is gone, we have one open scholarship for next season right? Let's hope Jordan Lathon commits soon. If he does we will be a very good team next season.

Landrum is gone, too.
That's right! I forgot to remove his name from the list. So we have two scholarships to give now right?

Yes. We have two schollies to give. Jordan Lathon isn’t an option anymore. We are still looking to add a Pg though.

With a big push for Jolly and Sherman who would both come in as sophomores or juniors it seems like we need to force some attrition just to balance the roster. Otherwise we won't have any scholarships to give for the 2020 class. I love the prospect of adding the Jolly and Sherman but still think we would need to balance our classes better.
