2011 3 Star

Picked up a 3 star from Houston named Ryan Manuel. Rangy 6'5, so hopefully he can add some muscle be a solid 2 guard. Had offers from C-USA foes Rice and Tulane, as well as an offer from Wichita State.

Looks like a solid pick up.

The most impressive offer I saw on the list was UNLV.

He just got back from his official to UNLV, so it's a really nice pick-up. Kid is a very good player that the staff liked more than Gotcher by mid July. One of the top players in Houston and perfect for the 4 out, 1 in. Big recruiting weekend coming up. The '11 roster in shaping up nicely

Manuel has really skyrocketed over the summer. Jumped to the #7 ranked player in HTown. Fills a need of a scoring 2 or 3.

5 ships total. I was hoping we'd have 3 filled by the early period, and I'm actually beginning to think 4 will be done. That would be very nice and help Doh's cause. If we can't get an impact 5th, i could see them giving Alexander a ride for the year.

Hopefully, we can lock up another big time recruit sometime soon :)

Me and a couple fellow Pony Fans, who attended a district rival of Manuel's, plan to see him play sometime shortly after Thanksgiving. Looking forward to seeing him and person and will certainly post something after watching him.

Looks like we did with Jones.
