Article from Hoopseen on recently offered Darryl Morsell, describing his game and his recruitment. The two programs that talk to him the most are Dayton and George Mason, so it looks like we have some A10 competition.

Apparently we are interested in polish guard Marcel Ponitka, I don't know what year he would be or much about him, but in this article he says (via google translate) http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/koszykowka/603721/marcel-ponitka-biore-pod-uwage-gre-w-ncaa

[JerseyLawyer]

He plays like a soccer player

[Speedy]

EDIT 2: also caused quite a stir with this... um... play(?) in the high school national title game (that they won) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaQ_ROUWI9k[/quote]

He certainly does appear to have made some sort of, um, play on the, um, ball.

Back-of-the-envelope scholarship count: Davidson gets thirteen scholarships.

A "decadent passing and shooting touch"?

[catnhat]

94' x 50' = 4700 sq. ft.

Maybe the court should be 100' x 56', but it isn't.

[mccabemi]

if the expectation is we sign top players, we should be more worried if this were not the case.

Tomas Murphy update. No Davidson mention.

[catnhat]

Walter Whyte's page on Rivals says he has no interest in DC. This surprises me because he doesn't have a dozen offers from P5 conference schools.

If true maybe it's because we have backed off some in our pursuit of him (assuming the interest reported ever did exist).

[CatsUpNorth]

[catnhat]

Rivals has us on the list of schools who have offered Whyte. They report he has no interest in DC and some others on the list.
