Good Miami Basketball news. It feels like:

Oh man, Huell's number!

Well, he has to sit a year, so after Huell averages 20 and 10 next year, he can wear 20.

Hopefully McGutsy's jump shot is better than his grammar and spelling.

Wish we coulda added 7 ' Omer Yurtseven, transferring from NCSU to the Hoyas. Will be a premier big man on national scene when eligible.

Would have been nice. That kid killed us.

That's crazy. I know NC State is upset about that one.

What's funny is as you write this.. You misspell his name haha. But yeah he was way worse in his spelling errors.

There's a difference between a misspelling and poetic license.

Yurtseven's reason for transferring supposedly was wanting to play for, and practice under, "a big man's coach." Guess Patrick Ewing fills that bill. Glad he's out of the ACC.

Assuming Mack is in fact eligible and Huell comes back we should be decent this year especially if we can land Johnson.

What's really exciting is the following year with a back court of Lykes, McGusty, Mack, Wilson, and DJ all in at least their third season in a D1 program. That's the type of team Coach L really thrives with. With Izundu graduating and the possibility of Huell leaving after next season (if he doesn't leave now), the front court should be the priority in the next class with only Waardenburg, Gak, and Miller returning. If Huell decides to stay all four years we should be in good shape everywhere.

Hopefully Carey fills any front court void, even if for only 1 year.

Word on the street is that it's not happening.

Me too. He looked a lot more NBA ready than Walker IV or Brown Jr.
