A Sea Of Red

Denzell Bowles is transferring from Texas A&M this semester...he would be an adequate big for our offense. He wants to transfer closer to his Virginia Beach home.

I don't think we have any scholarships.

There will be a scholarship available... One way or another. But the question is, will McKay want a guy who is a true Big man?

I suppose JVP is not a true big.

My guess is the culture shock was a bit much moving from Tidewater to a place where an establishment called the Dixie Chicken is considered high fallutin'.

Are you saying that it's not?

Its about as highbrow as Eskimo Joe's.

Any link to this story?

I was talking to this guy who went to my highschool, now he's a freshman at EKU, he wants to transfer here when his season is over. He's 6'9 and weighs 250.

And you are sure he said he wants to transfer?

So when I looked at their roster I saw that Mike Lewis, who originally committed to us is playing for EKU.

He's averaging 13.6 minutes per game and 4.9 points. He is shooting over 38 percent from 3. Not surprising, he only averages 0.7 rebounds a game. He's 5'7"!

And Cordaro Ellis is not getting any minutes, so that's probably why he wants to transfer. He only has 6 points all season, but hey, he made all the shots he has taken!

Normally I would think that if he can't get minutes at EKU, then he won't get minutes at Liberty. But maybe this kid really does have some talent that is being overlooked. I guess McKay will decide if he is good enough to give a scholly to.

I still think that Smith or Carter will be start for us next year. And if they bulk up, we won't need any other big men to transfer in. Maybe... haha.

i know he wants to transfer i think the main reason being that hes from lynchburg and hes getting no playing time

per VA Pilot: looks like Bowles is official.
