Ideally, I would like to sign one more guy able to play next year. Ricardo Johnson-esque player.

I've seen crazier things happen.

Hope you work hard over the summer and get a chance to walk-on; see if you can put on a few more pounds of muscle before the season starts.  

Back in the 60's there would typically be a few guys that took basketball for PE in fall semester and were invited to a spot on the team.  My brother, Dan Connors, practiced and road the bench at home games for two years with the Bobcats--the team always can use good talent to practice against if nothing else.  Whether you see PT or simply make the starters work harder in practice you are providing a good value to the team!  

Best wishes!

Mr. Taylor is now signed! I would be okay using the last two scholarships with Ric and a certain big man that realized testing the waters was a bad idea coming back to us humbled.

Even though it's not 100% official, we can close the 0-10% chance Mr. T.O chooses OHIO chapter on May 21st, right?

If he is humble and has a chip on his shoulder why not?  I mean to quote you

I am by no means expecting it but I'd be okay with it.  He is the only one not signed from the recruits that left.  I don't expect Ric to win his appeal either.  We are what we are going into next season.  I still believe we are going to be pretty good.

I'm not expecting anymore, but I'd like to see another big man. We're a little thin on big guys.

Agree, that is why I'm slotting Harley into this class - makes me feel better - a player with some size that has 4 years of eligibility.

Unless he's gained weight -- a lot of it -- "size" might not be something I'd describe him as having.  Height....that's a different story.    (If I recall, he was originally listed at 6'7"/165 or something like that)
