UMass grad transfer Malik Hines has committed to McNeese State, per a source. Immediately eligible. Impact addition for Heath Schroyer.[/quote]

Is he the Big we had interest in?[/quote]

Yes, we had interest in him, but the staff didn't.[/quote]

"We" had interest in every guy 6'8" or over who was a transfer or juco>:dry: So now thnat we have Herron, do "we" still want that big instead?:cheer:[/quote]


You make the Hines trade, or any Mystery Big on our ‘list’, trade to get a 5* stud like Heron any day of the week.
No debate and no question.[/quote]

Exactly, but that doesn't stop some posters from harping about the big "we" wanted.;) :p

Matt kicked tires but passed for good reason. His main target got cold feet and never exercised his grad transfer option.[/quote]
Paultz (or anyone else who might know the answer), is it permissible to contact a "potential" grad transfer prior to him actually becoming a "grad" transfer? When you say he "kicked" the tires I am not sure if that means he contacted someone or what? Seems like their might be some "tampering" rule or such, no? Just curious about the dark side of recruiting.[/quote]
He kicked tires on UMass kid after he announced desire to transfer

I'm sure Matt inquires about a lot of kids who are potential transfers, kinda like checking on HS players who might come. It's great to ask but in the vast majority of cases that's as far as it gets. No problem, he's doing his job, sometimes it takes a while for someone to open up ala Heron.

For all the swooning over the Umass kid here, he didn't exactly break the doors down at any major. McNeese St. is not even in what I'd consider a mid-major conference.

I'm sure he had his reasons for picking them but it's certainly a step down from the A 10. Good luck to him but Heron's a prize and I'm glad we got him instead of any "big".

I guess no one did either so he went there

Seems like a good fit as they just lost their best player and big man as early entry to NBA draft.
