Are you in a position to oversign at all?

I agree. Looking at MU's roster next year I still find it hard to believe Buzz isn't going to sign another big in the spring, make a JC transfer.

With Josh Cunningham deciding until spring to sign, we are definitely looking at PGs, Devonte Graham being another one.

That's another thing. If we do oversign I'm guessing it would be for a C/PF. We have an awful lot of guards coming in and only one big. Buzz also generally likes to get a JC on the team, so we'll see what happens. I'm trying to think of who might transfer out or go pro, and frankly I can't really think of anybody at the moment. Mayo might be a possible pro if he goes off the rest of the season, but that's iffy.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Class of '16

From Zags:

"Prep combo guard JaQuan Lyle says he’s considering eight schools. “I have eight schools I’m considering,” Lyle told the Charleston (W.V.) Gazette. “Kansas, Providence, Oregon, West Virginia, Indiana, Connecticut, Memphis and Florida State."

PC has offered too.

This highlight has PC recruit JaQuan Lyle, Josh Perkins (Gonzaga) & Miles Bridges (4* 2016). It's a ridiculous Double Alley Oop!

Supposedly former X commit 4* PF Melvin Swift is now considering SJU among others:

" In the class of 2014, there are very few prospects left in the Future150 rankings who are not yet committed to a school. One of those prospects is bouncy forward Melvin Swift, the #102 prospect in our rankings. The 6-foot-7 forward is a high upside prospect who has a good amount of upside....As it stands, he is down to the final five schools in his recruitment; Baylor, Connecticut, SMU, St. John's and UMass."

Haven't seen Swift, a Texas native, connected to the Johnnies anywhere else yet.

Jerry Meyer actually just tweeted he expects Swift to end up at a JuCo. Not really shocking IMO.

"The info I'm getting is that junior college is best guess. bit.ly/18odmbr RT @crisdboss: where do you think Melvin Swift ends up"

Looks like buzz is trying to deal with potential thin front court next season. ESPN has the Londoner , C Legend Robertin, rated as a 4* recruit. Wonder what this means for Harris. From Future150:

"Marquette has offered 2014 C Legend Robertin of Believe Prep in South Carolina. 7'1, runs the floor well, and blocks shots."

https://twitter.com/Future150/status/413903324371382273

Here's some good video of Legend & his Believe Prep teammates from BallasTV:

"Believe Prep is one of the most Exciting basketball teams in the Nation out of South Carolina. Here are some standouts from NPS and Roster below....7'0 Legend Robertin 2014 - to put it simply Legend is a man playing against boy's, his ability to run the floor is second to no other 7 footer in the country. We expect him to be one of the best available bigs in the country."
