AW to opt for extra year

[it's boogie time]

I doubt the final scholarship would be banked. There's always the standard line of 'we won't take a player just to take a player', but in the end that scholarship gets used. If you really feel like the roster is set at every position, then you can take a flyer on a project.

As far as AW at the next level, we need to see what he has added to his game since last year. He wasn't the primary option on offense his first two years. The hope is that he has developed enough to take over games against the best defender. I think we will find out a lot more next year.

The scholarship needs to be filled with a jr. college post player or a 6-4 or bigger off guard , that would give us the opportunity to redshirt someone that may not play much or at all next season. We have to except the fact that Will may not be 100% by next season and AT does not have the experience to just believe he will be good enough to start at center next season.

I was thinking as much! Even if WE is ready by October to practice it will take some time for him to get back to where he was. These injuries usually take over a year of intensive rehab plus the mental game to completely come back. I do not think we need a JUCO though if it is for the off guard postion. I would want a 4 year player for that one.

I agree that a 4 year player is needed for the 2 guard.

And I think Dyricus Simms Edwards fits that description!

Can he shoot the 3 from deep and create his own shot? We have 3 young point guards right now and it will be nice to pick up a good one in the 2010 class but not for the next class where a tall athletic shooting guard will be able to have a better chance to contribute quickly. I also feel it would be nice to get a 5 from the JUCO route that can play D and rebound as not to put a lot of pressure on WE and AT or for the matter JP to have to contribute from day one next year. We have a pretty good non-con next year and a big who physically can step up right away will be a nice commodity for us.

Yes and yes!
