LB went to the provost fro Mudiay and KF. Lobbied hard and got Turner's help getting them accepted into the school. Might be a little gun shy on doing that right now.

he re-classified-he wouldn't be eligible at any NCAA school. Just like Kapita took a Prep year because he was a non-qualifier for Arkansas last year

It is an issue and a big one now.

Grab Moore, play small. Matchups go both ways and bigs that can kill you, are in short supply

So what's the deal with Kapita?
I'd agree with grabbing Moore even if we still had everyone who committed…but now it looks like two schollies are opened up.
It would be awesome to have a rim protector who can run the floor and YES we may be thin up front but our guys CAN rebound.
Shake, Sterling, Ben, Semi plus the best of the rest to start.
Still a deep bench….just 2's, 3's, 3.5's and 4's.
We'll be fine.

Then we really need a provost that 'gets it'

I'm sorry, I've just seen zero evidence in five years that Larry gives two [deleted] about anything admin says or does. He's not gun shy about anything.

The old one left. I don't think the person in that role is the problem, they are just following the rules. But you can bet that with the lobbying that went on for KF and it ended up really burning the school, it is going to be really tough to get exceptions through the gate now. I wouldn't be surprised at all if these guys got rejected initially and we decided not to go through the process.
We didn't play with a 5 this season, we had a bunch of 4s. But they were all veterans and stayed out of foul trouble. We need someone else to get in that rotation.

couldn't agree more. We've got 3 bigs who will be happy with their minutes and Jarrey and Sterling can board

JasonB neither kid qualified under NCAA rules-what part of that don't you understand? SMU waited on both recruits to improve their SATs. If they were qualified schools would jump all over them within 24 hours. Looks to me that SMU WAS trying to do everything possible to admit both of them.

I know nothing of this process. My judgment on this year will be simple. Make the NCAA's or heads should roll.

So funny. I remember when Abu was saying LB was going to retire before now. Now he wants him fired.
