lwjr- I am as well. He has obviously brought some excitement and interest to SMU bball.
THANK YOU LB for coming to SMU.

his energy and desire to bring in the best players and build a nationally relevant team is really refreshing. Some of the other coaches should notice and take a lesson. Old doesn't have to mean stagnant.

Its too early to truly talk attrition, though we're likely to over sign by 2 or 3. I think there are just a bevy of kids that need to perform given the chance (Cannen, Manuel, Bernardi, Ofoegbu, Dickerson, even Blaise to a degree). That said, don't rule out weird factors when it comes to roster design. There are always just one or two kids that come and go for completely unpredictable reasons. Lots of time to watch the kids play, and figure things out,

Wilson and Dunleavy are not on scholarship so it does not matter if they are still here or not, this discussion is about freeing up scholarship slots.
