Pretty nice stats. We have a need in the front court. Would be a sit-out transfer unless the NCAA changes the rules which seems pretty likely although hard to predict to when they would go into effect. Would appear to more than fills the hole left by Deantoni Gordon's departure.

Checked his twitter account. He either knows or is aware of Ellis.

ESPN lists him as a “#2 guard”?

CBS has him as a guard as well. Here is an article about him: https://www.click2houston.com/sports...ketball-great/

Rice also lists him as guard. He is on the slender side at 200 lbs so he might find it a bit tough to play on the interior. Perhaps a game somewhat similar to Markis McDuffie. Hard to say. Looks like he shoots it pretty well from the outside.

Cut his list to four schools.

Houston makes sense. Would have been nice to add him as a sit one play two guy. Would have added more balance to the classes without having to find him playing time next season.

Classy! Some other kids could learn from this on how to gracefully handle an exit even if there are other things going on behind the scenes.

So simple, yet so difficult for some.

Commits to Virginia. Houston misses out on the in-city transfer.

Bummer. Would have been good to at least have him in the AAC if not with the Shox.
