Cleanthony Early-SHOCKER!!

I agree. Obviously this has a lot to do with his situation, but I seriously doubt he's foreshadowing anything for us, good or bad. He's probably heard the rumors and been asked plenty of times about them.

I agree as well. I stated that it could mean a lot of things. I listed a lot of possibilities.

Please take the time to read thru Early's post on twitter he has plenty of "deep" thoughts on there. People need to relax

And one of those thoughts is below.

If C. Early is indeed the best offensive player yet to be recruited by Coach Marshall to WSU, then this is player that may be the darling of our his best recruiting Class here ever as well. What does that mean? We have had some fine Juco transfers such as Clevin, Rags, and Ben Smith that have come in and helped us improve their Junior Season but really helped much more their Senior year. I'm thinking that Carl Hall will really help us next year and improve also after a sweet Junior Season. In this case, C, Early may be a special Juco Transfer that will be a real key from jump street and have 2 very special Seasons for us. Would it be greedy of me to also still want to make room for Mr. Wiggins to join our best Recruiting Class ever? Please advise.

Except that he later confirmed that it did to some degree.

I'm not worried.

No Mr. Sunshine, in this situation greed is a good thing. :)

I think some are on edge and are reading too much into little things. However, given the fact that his background on twitter is him sitting with Gregg Marshall is a good sign. No reason to worry at this point. I would think if it was meant as a bad thing he would have changed that background pretty fast.

Not me. At least mine makes some sense instead of trying to tear apart every word from a tweet LOL.

I may have to stay away from the board for a while. Too many psychos around here LOL I am honestly worried about some of you.

Was checking out Cle's Twitter, and noticed his site link is his FB page, clicked on it and his name on his Facebook is "Cleanthony WichitastBound Early" how cool is that? Guy can ball, and on top of that, he seems dedicated to WSU already. We have a great group of guys coming in this class.

[another shocker]

This young man can really attack in transititon, with great body control.. plus defend just about anywhere on the floor?

'Must be a starter from day one?

'Must be a starter from day one?

Yes

[forevershockerfan]

Yes

Yes, but I think some starts at the 3 and some at the 4. I bet he can play either spot and play them well. With all of our guards, I could really see Early at the 4 and Hall at the 5.

[wufan]

+1

For me it depends on the development of White and EO. If they can hold down the fort Early plays the three. If not, the 4.

"Many big name JUCO prospects began to fly off the board last week and many more will follow in the near future. Wichita State had a huge week dipping into the JC ranks and snatching Cleanthony Early (2012/Sullivan CC) and Earl Watson (2013/Chipola College). Early (pictured), a 6-8/215-pound forward, will be a huge addition for the Shockers next season. He is hands down one of the best junior college players in the country. Early brings the total package on both ends. At 6-foot-8 he is very skilled and has a fluid game that mixes well with his length and athletic ability."

Just a bit of a refresher.

Can't wait to see him in the yellow and black, er, gray...whatever...
