Tyrone Taylor Welcome to Shocker Nation!

[tropicalshox]

A 6-2 SG at Grandview, Mo. and ran with KC Pump & Run 15U this year. He is receiving letters from WSU.

Bossi's report on Taylor from the Jayhawk Invitational:

"A quick and aggressive scorer, Taylor was in attack mode on Sunday and his offense was important. He is quick to the rim, makes jumpers in flurries and doesn't lack confidence when he's on the floor."

Sounds like the type of player we should be looking at. Aggressive and confident! A lovely pair

I like the phrase, "a lovely pair."

Now listed in the class of 2013. He has already made unofficials to Wichita State, Missouri, Kansas and Creighton over the past year. He will soon visit Nebraska. Creighton has offered.

After his visit to Nebraska they top his list although he hasn't yet been offered. He has trips lined up with Creighton and Tulsa.

Should we assume that Tyrone has quite a crossover dribble?

Visiting Creighton this coming weekend.

According to Prepforce1 on twitter, WSU offers.

Perhaps we will just start 5 guards

Perhaps we will just start 5 guards

Not sure that should be a concern. Next year we have post players consisting of Ehimen, White, Hall, Lufile and maybe Early. In '13-'14 we have White (JR), Lufile (SR), Watson (JR) and maybe Early (SR) and possibly Carter (SO/RFR). In '14-'15 it would be White (SR), Watson (SR) possibly Carter (JR/RSO) and whoever we pick up in the mean time. That looks pretty solid with a couple of future spots still not filled.

If Carter isn't a real option, I'm sure that 'ship will go to a big so the numbers still work alright. Plus I believe we'd have 3 total 'ships for '14 and I'm sure at least one of them would go to a big.

The good news is, we have lots of talent.

We be in big trouble if White is our post player.

We be in big trouble if White is our post player.

What position should White play other than 4? Maybe some PG play?

We be in big trouble if White is our post player.

Do you think he sucks so bad he shouldn't play? White is a 4. Pretty simple...

Except, based on recent posting history, this particular Mr. Obvious would have labelled the cat "chartreuse".
