It seems that we were going after many of the same players this year. A couple of weeks ago there was a rumor there that they were about to get a Texas JUCO forward and most thought it would be him.One of their fans just posted that he signed with South Florida.Think1CoachJoined: 11 Dec 2003Posts: 748 Posted: Sat May 14, 2005 6:06 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Melvyn Richardson to South Florida St. Petersburg Times wrote: Melvyn Richardson, a 6-foot-7, 235-pound power forward/center from Lon Morris (Texas), signed with USF.

THIS GUY IS A WINNER! We'll be happy to use JUCO players that will bring us above .500 and beyond. Top talent rarely lasts longer than two years at the college level.Good pick!!

Guest beatsiebull Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 No matter how we try to spin this this is a very unremarkable signing at best. Why would anyone expect anything different? I don't care what the rankings say, this is a very unremarkable class. I've given up on hoping for the big time recruit and have resigned myself to hoping that Mac can somehow make this mish-mash work and make us respectable in the BE.BTW when I think of BASKETBALL JUCO transfers I think of Andrikk Frazier....
