I thought they were out of scholarships, but something must be changing with their roster.
Dana Altman got a verbal from a junior college guard, Booker Woodfox--
Here is a premium article from Rivals--
Booker Woodfox is a 6'1" shooting guard from San Jacinto College in Texas. It says he visited Creighton over this past weekend and decided to commit. Some interesting clips--
"They were really interested in me and they said that they were looking for a shooter since Nate Funk is leaving. So I think I can come in and play a lot of minutes next year."
Woodfox, who was also getting looks from North Texas and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, really liked the environment he experienced up in Omaha, Nebraska. "I kind of wanted to get out of Texas, and the weather there was nice - and the cold, I kind of like it," Woodfox said. "I like the players there too."
Woodfox felt comfortable making his decision even though there's been speculation that Creighton head coach Dana Altman could be a candidate for the head job at Iowa. "I talked to him about it, and for the most part and I think he wants to stay at Creighton," Woodfox said. "But even if he leaves, if one of the assistants moves up then I'll stay - they were all very nice."
That last part is a little telling. Apparently Altman did not tell this kid he was staying at Creighton, but that he "thinks he wants to stay at Creighton", but if he leaves, one of the assistants will take over! That doesn't sound like someone who is planning on staying!
