Maybe I'm missing something, but Kanne and Counts both received their scholarships as seniors, didn't they? With them leaving, wouldn't that open up two more. And what about Deric?
I'm not too knowledgeable about how that all works, but it seems to me that there are three scholarships right there opening up for newcomers?

Don't believe everything you read. Mitrell is under some consideration, but only if a lot of other things don't come in. I don't think an offer has been made. If he is ever offered, it would not be at this point. Lmu already has high interest coming from Ty Nurse at the point position and Kalipende, the number 22 shooting guard in the country by some accounts, is already committed at that spot. We should know if the Bigs are committing, soon. Everything else comes after that.

Waterboy,
Do you have date on when the "bigs" will be making their visit?

Good discussion here - personally glad to see Mitrell is not a commit at this time. Lawson is way up there in my book and a good add. Crazygirl - you are right about Kanne and Counts. They and Deric (another scholarship player) will be leaving. We have only 13 scholarships (the NCAA limit) which were all used this year. So with these three Seniors leaving, we have 3 slots. Kalipinde and Garibay have taken two of them, leaving one more unless a current player is dumped. Hence, the Sutton speculation. Some have mentioned Sweezy but I think Coach Good is OK with him and he has given a lot of good minutes this year. I worry that Teel and Good are usually not on the same page, Teel plays a bit too reckless for Good, and this bears watching although others have said Teel is OK with the program.

In the mix? "Updates on uncommitted seniors: -- Eldorado guard Mitrell Clark said he is scheduling a visit to Loyola Marymount. He has offers from LMU, Montana State, Seattle and Denver." LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL 4/16/09 www.lvrj.com/sports/43087597.html

Do we even want/need Clark? Yes he is a scorer.. but it seems like LMU is pretty guard heavy as it is. There are a lot of young talented guards on the roster. I would take another big before we go after Clark myself. PLus, do we even have a roster spot open? If this report is true obviously this means either Sweezy is gone or someone is transferring. Hrmmmm. RUmors will start to fly im sure.
Garibay has been on campus every day this week... has he started taking classes? or is he just equating himself with the guys. Its also pretty cool that Given Kalipinde wished Jared Dubois a happy birthday today. Looks like the guys are bonding already.

Our roster is set. I'm 99% sure we are no longer recruiting Mitrell.

Hard to understand the article in the LV Review - Journal. I don't see how Mitrell fits in unless someone bolts from the current squad. I am assuming Sutton is already gone. Perhaps there are academic issues at play here, which might eliminate one of the current team members??
