You never know when a situation might come up with a player (I'd prefer at PF/C) who graduates early and wants to play for a winner their last year.

Very true. I think this would be the best case scenario if bubu isn't on the team. I wouldn't mind another Jake Anderson or like you said a pf/c

I noticed on the op's recruit list that there are 4 offers for players from Indian Hills C.C., two I believe have given vc. Indian Hills must have a really good team to have 4 players offered. Does anybody know how their team is doing? Thanks.

Vince Hunter to go play for Floyd. Interesting.

UTEP is putting together quite a class... they just signed a top 20ish 4 star player last week.

Also, I didn't see it mentioned, Chris Thomas committed to Manhattan last night. we were in his top 5 once upon a time.

Academics certainly crossed my mind but that's not based on any info.

I am not giving up on Percy at all. He will have a great Cyclone career! We do need a proven big man in a dire way!!! I understand the "role" player mentality when it comes to recruiting. But when one of your star big men could go down with an injury and they are lost for the season, they would wish they had invested in a good big..
Hey, you think we are in the SEC or something?

Update from Kevin Zabo. He's spoken with Hoiberg multiples times, likes how he uses guards...

NY2LASPORTS.COM - INTERVIEW WITH 2014 G KEVIN ZABO

I wonder if the Custer commitment means we'll stop pursuing Zabo. I imagine it does, but who knows. I'm not on the staff.

News flash, if we have 4-5 open spots, chances are we will take more than one guard each year. I would love Zabo but Vaughn more.

I'm sorry but we don't need Zabo. If we get him great, but we need some bigger bodies. We need a small forward. Vaughn at 6'6 wold do it, but I'm not gonna put my money on getting him. We easily could, but it's not like he's Matt Thomas visiting every week. We need some big men on the inside cause we're looking really small in 14 right now. If he chooses here take him, but if i'm Fred I'm concentrating my efforts somewhere else. If someone disagrees let me know. Plus we only have three more open scholarships open for 14 if no one leaves

If we sign a juco post for the 2013 class that will leave us 2 scholarships to replace Ejim and Amardi. So we will need to get a couple forwards which probably means we will cool on any other 2014 guards we were recruiting.

That sounds more logical. I am kind of pumped about this O' Mara kid! I think he would do well for us. He is a 2014 recruit I believe.

Still think we will have one current freshman or sophmore transfer and we will try and pick up a solid transfer from another team. No inside info. Not going to name a player. Just a feeling and based on the current state of basketball

Cleanthony Early with 25 pts and 9 rebs for Wichita State vs Iowa tonight. Many likely remember that we recruited him for some time last summer.

Abu and O' Mara should be our top high school prospects at this point. Would love to land Abu. Sounds like Abu and Terell is a package deal. I don't know if Terell has visited, or if Abu has for that matter. I know O'Mara has made an unofficial visit with us and was impressed with us.
