If lomax ends up with us and Harris going with Memphis, I can see a good rivalry brewing there. It's going to be fun to see it all play out.

From the article:

“ Lomax’s father said in an interview Friday his son could choose a school “any day now.”

It’s pretty much a battle between Wichita State and Ole Miss at this point,” Alex Lomax Sr. said. “Wichita State is the favorite, but he also kind of wants to be in the SEC.”

I've lost track of where we are with respect to the # of scholarships left (assuming Landry and Markis stay another year). Do we have 2 left for Alvarez and Lomax?

Sorry if already posted; interesting information on Alex Lomax Sr.

I believe we have 4 commits right now for next year
Erik
Chandler
Morris
Echenique

We currently will lose 6
Kelly
Brown
Nurger
Willis
Shaq
Frankamp

So yes we have 2 available, plus the possibility of Shamet or Mcduffie leaving, plus any other transfers. So plenty of room still.

Lomax is a textbook, Play Angry Era, WSU player. Hopefully, his heart tells him the same thing.

Sounds like Memphis may have shot themselves in the foot with the OV offer or a one-night visit on a Thursday no less. Seems like that did not sit too well with Mama and Papa Lomax.

Really hoping that Alex decides he looks best in Sunflower Yellow.

[pinstripers]

Do we wait on him?

[Shockersarelife]

Just reading between the lines it sounds like the son wants us and the dad wants the SEC will see who wins

[Shock Top]

Top team in a good conference vs Middling team in a good conference.

Decisions, Decisions.

[pinstripers]

Ole Miss is......what......an hour from this kid's house?

[WSUwatcher]

Good start, ST, but let me fix it for you:

Top team in a good conference, which goes to the NCAA every year, vs. middling team in a good conference, which goes to the NIT most years.

Decisions, Decisions.
