Recruiting - 2015

[Dane Pound]

A couple new offers over the weekend:

 

Kyle McKinley, 6'10" C from Minnesota. Handful of other mid-major offers.

Blaise Gammon, 6'8" PF from Kansas. A slew of other mid-major offers..probably most notably from Indiana State.

 

Good news on McKinley, he will be visiting in September. Hopefully he commits so I can start working on some Mount McKinley shirts for next year.

I was always much more of a Denali fan myself.

Looks like we also have a visit lined up in Sept. for Jamir Andrews, a 6'3 guard. His other visits are Bowling Green and Washington State. Pretty good company to be recruiting with.

Offer out to Corey Johnson..6'5" SG from Ottawa, CAN. Holds offers from more than a dozen other mid-majors..Ohio U probably being the most notable.

Looks like Andrews committed to Bowling Green. Did so before making his visits to UAlbany and Washington State.

I haven't seen this name yet for '15...Jesse Bunting from MA. For what it's worth a really highly rated player by ESPN (3 stars/77 grade).

 

a 6'8 big...

 

EDIT: Sorry...DP already reported it.

Sounds like some A10 schools got involved and moved him out of our reach.

Well we needed a big man! Short highlight video.

Nice! Another Minnesota player along with Wheeler Baker. He had a nice list of competing schools on VC and as DRG said, we can use a big guy.

 

KYLE MCKINLEY - 2015 - PF - NET GAIN SPORTS McKinley is a tough forward on the interior who can score from the block or do some work facing up in the short-range. He rebounds the ball well on both ends of the floor and creates disruptions for opponents on the other end with his 6-10 frame and length. His overall skill-set is still developing, but he is really becoming a go-to player inside. - See more at: http://www.ny2lasports.com/article_one.aspx?articleid=2065#sthash.Ur8KImSj.dpuf

Sounds like a great get. Should set us up nicely for 2015. Sam Rowley will graduate..leaving the team with Peters and McKinley at C..Mike Rowley at PF. Good size.

Hold the Mayo, he committed to Eastern Kentucky today.

Joel Wincowski from Lake George committed to UMBC. He should benefit playing a few years with Elliot who should get him some good looks.
