Men's bball recruiting. Another JUCO?

Morrison wants an uptempo game, probably not what he will find under Mac... defense first!

“Basically, I’m just looking for somewhere where I can fit into a good system for me,” Morrison said. “… uptempo style, pressing and running where I could use my athleticism to my advantage is what I want.”

why is he leaving south carolina?

does he have to sit out a year?

i thought south carolins was an ok team this year.

this is a guy seth would be intrested in.

He would have to sit out a year.  Don't know the answer to the other question.

Personally, i like Cann from Brandon, but we need more height...  Cann at 6'5 is yet another swing guard/Sm. Fwd.  If he can shoot lights out, take him, but if not, we need some bigger bodies, 6'7, 6'8, and larger.

That article was written in September 2003. Since then he played at Garden City (KS) CC, so I don't think he'd have to sit out a year.

His only school choice is listed as South Florida, but we supposedly haven't offered.

good pt howie, didn't realize it was an old article...

6'6 is decent size, but i still would like to see bigger, but if he can shoot, i'd want him.

nonetheless, By the wording of his wants... i don't think he'd fit.

He must have been reinstated since then, because he scored 22 points in March 2004:
