He is a PG, which we desperately need, shoots nearly 40% from the field and 90% from the foul line. He had 73 assists and 41 steals. If he does the same as a Colonel next year I will be tickled to death. Another good job A.Dub.

Three transferring and two grads. We have 5 openings and have signed 3 is that right? Tyron Taylor, Russhard Cruickshank and Curt Lewis. Am I forgetting someone?

I’m not saying Cruickshank isn’t a good recruit. I know he'll help the team win games. I’m only saying Cruickshank doesn’t shoot as well as some players currently on the team.

As you say Cruickshank shot nearly 40% from the field and 90% from the foul line. He had 73 assists and 41 steals. Last year Robinson played the same number of games for us and shot 43% from the field and 61% from the foul line. He had 98 assists and 37 steals. In summery Cruickshank is about the same as Robinson. I thought Robinson was a good PG, so Cruickshank should be a good PG too.

I’m hoping AW finds a shooting guard as one of the 2 remaining recruits.

I hadn't met him but I do know the parents. Both are former EKU athletes, dad played football and his mom is a former women's basketball player who is at least 6-3. So there is a change he does stand that tall. :)

Wow! and Jaylen Davis is listed as a PG.

It looks like Jaylen Davis could be our next Justin Stommes (who was a 6-7 PG and one of my favorite all time EKU basketball players).
