Moton absence was a surprise for me. I've seen video of Brooks Ybarra and he looks pretty good. I don't know anything of the others.

Not sure of many programs that would do that...and why bring more attention an issue? May be a lot more to it than you realize, either for the player or the school, if not both. This, speaking from experience on said issue from the "they" perspective... ;D

You never know what's going to happen until you see the final roster on opening night...

I thought they were out of scholarships to give?  With Moton not on the team then that opened up a spot.  Matt Pace is probably a walk on.  Since Nabors is probably redshirting this year does that open up a scholarship?

I can't find any info on Justin Carter, but like Skyler Williams he'll have 3 years of eligibility at Lamar.

I knew Roc would find a big.. I've never heard of the guy but it is another tall body in the paint.

Justin Carter went to UT-Permain Basin last year, a DII school, not JUCO.  It looks like he didn't play any last year but I don't know why.  If he was hurt like Skyler Williams then he might be a little rusty.  It'll be interesting to see if any of these new players can contribute this year.

[Guest mffl]

He has 3 years of eligibility i see. I wonder how many of these are walk-on players? I'm guessing at least Ybarra, Pace, and Riley are. It's refreshing to see some new faces, I don't know if we had any walk on players last year.

[Guest abovetherim]

No, there wasn't any walk-ons last year. Ybarra is a player who could get some minutes because he can shoot the ball.

I hear Riley was some player. Chapel Hill was ranked #1 in the state the year that HJ won state, and HJ knocked them out too so maybe some Hawks know about this kid?

[Lazeek]

Riley was TCH stud PG.  He missed the majority of his senior year with a bad knee.

[lu cards]

anyone got the skinny on moton?really would like to know what happened.just renewed my season tickets so im ready for some bball.

LaZeek,

Whats the word on Ryan Donahoe?

Is he fully recovered?

Will he resume his BB career?

And if so where should we look to keep track of him (Navarro???)?

If he can return and have a solid year at a JUCO, I would love to see him in a Cardinal uni! With one year of JUCO to get his feet under him, he could have three years at LU!

Last I heard is that a Houston school was on him very hard and that he is possibly enrolled there now!!!

I hope there is something that I don't know about or see in this roster.  Could be a so so year.  Maybe some of you guru's can enlighten me about this group other than the few proven kids back from last year.
