I was on campus over the weekend for an event and I saw some of the team working out and the rest of the guys hanging out and helping to host the recruit that was in. In the short part of the workout I saw Mays, Lowe and Botz were grouped together with McKinnie and the recruit watching.
So a few thoughts about that. Greg Mays is automatic in practice with his baseline jumper. You can tell he puts the time in with that shot, just makes it look easy. Botz was working out with these guys. I wasn't sure if he was a guard or a forward in the past. I would guess by having him with these guys he sees a better chance to play more minutes sooner as a forward. I can see him taking a big step in this offseason as he has some skill and seems to work hard. Humphrey and Fulton were both hanging out with the team. I know I have mentioned some critical things about their ability but when I step back and think about it I am happy that all signs lead to them staying (why else would they be helping host a recruit on Easter weekend instead of going home?). Having more continuity will be really good for next season as I think it is a two team race in the HL with CSU and GB.

While I wasn't a big fan of Lamin on the court but I do wish him well going forward. I can understand why playing closer to home would be nice and also in his last year just playing at all. When I look at the guard positions I saw him as the 3rd or 4th best option at either spot. With 4 seniors on the roster the team still has plenty of experience so I am not too worried about the impact for this season.
They have to fill 5 spots and I would be pretty happy if they land a transfer player to sit out this year. I think we would all agree they need to land 2 or 3 big guys in addition to a PG to groom to replace Sykes and eventually Love.

In thinking about the comment I made about a transfer there obviously isn't much out there at this point in time. The only guy I could find that is the size that GB would need is Isaiah Watkins from Duquesne. Plus I figured there would be a connection through Tevin. With that said I really don't know much about his skills so this is probably a waste of a post. www.goduquesne.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/isaiah_watkins_850516.html
