I liked that we brought him in to take a look, but it looks as if we passed. Some potential there, but what was on film was strange.

Looks like Batcho's the one we want from the foreign bigs -- Batcho and Walton or Batcho and a traditional sit-out transfer?

Latrell Wrightsell PG/2020, either 6-1 or 6-3 depending on which site you look.
Legacy kid who put up good numbers this year. Not rated very highly at all. Looks as though we will pass on him?
What's the story with Latrell Jr.?

Given our numbers for this year, it doesn't look like we'd offer. I think he has offers from South Dakota State, SIU Edwardsville, North Texas, Northern Illinois, Wisconsin Green Bay and a couple of others. He's getting some interest from bigger schools, but nothing like BE schools. Doesn't mean we wouldn't offer, but doesn't seem like a good fit right now with the potential roster crunch we're likely to have, and I don't know if a grey shirt would make sense either.

I think Jacob said he'd come a long way in the past couple of years in an article, so he may have more info.

Love me some Latrell. Might have been the nicest guy on campus way back when.

Glad to see his family doing great - IIRC - doesn't he have a daughter who's pretty good as well?

She's averaging 10 points and 8 rebounds at Tennessee State this year.

Trelly is a 6'2" (in shoes) shooting guard and he doesn't have Khyri-like length (wingspan is about 6'2" as well), which is probably a big part of why high-majors haven't shown interest. I wouldn't expect Creighton to jump in. He's a good player though.

Looks like we picked up Sami Osmani

Preferred walk-on. Looks like we are building up our scout team for next year. Replaces Scurry.

He’s listed at 6’4 or 6’5 at various places. Not sure where you’re seeing 6’1.

There is a chance that some players that thought they would not qualify might. The NCAA is not requiring sat or act scores for one year. Have no idea if this effects CU but it could. Go Jays!
