Men's basketball recruiting ?

[ytownchief22]

Salley left the program. Kane-Johnson also decided to give up basketball.

Disappointed that these two are leaving.  Wondering if they thought they would be on scholarship this year and seeing a D3 recruit come in and get one might of led to some uneasiness.

I can understand Kane-Johnson leaving since there are 11 guards listed on the roster. But, Salley would have been the only center on the team (unless he didn't get a scholarship).

Salley was tall, but did you ever watch him play?  Calhoun's style and John Salley's style were a  complete mismatch.

I kind of wondered if there was going to be any room for Cameron Kane-Johnson.  He was certainly impressive at Westminster, I was looking forward to seeing him get a shot at D1 level, but not sure how he would do over the course of the season.

Kyle scadlock not on roster as well.

Kyle scadlock not on roster as well.

Since he transferred in from D-3, does he have to sit out for a year?

He was a senior last season.  Perhaps it has to do with whether he graduated from Williams college.  I'm just speculating.

6-8 William Dunn is the latest verbal.  Averaged 24 pts 10 rebounds his jr year.

Guys filming clips don't help much.  Kid is 6-8 so I assume he can dunk, but doesn't show one clip of rebounding technique, defensive ability and only a couple jump shots (form looks very clean).  We need some size and a senior year should be worth 10-20 lbs. which he could use.  Nice pick up.

                                                              In this video you'll see his outside shot.   He really has a lot of arc(brings rain) on his jumper.

That little guard for the team wearing orange is kind of a slow learner! He got stuffed about 6 times on the exact same drive into the lane against Traore!

3 ball is kind of a push shot, jumper from inside has elbows flying all over the place.  Release on 3 is quick enough, but pretty low.  We'll have to see.  A 6-5 SG that can hit consistently should have a fine career running with Quis.

I think Traore has deceptive wing length and will be a rim protector.   Didn't see an explosive leaper but a guy who will work his behind off .   runs the floor well.    D is way ahead of his offense at this time.

Correct on Hunter having what looks to be a push shot.   He looks like he can stroke it from three well and take you off the dribble.   Nice pick ups.
