I guess Coach Hunter was serious about recruiting Louisiana.

Another live body to come in and play right away. I have no idea how good he is other than the two stars he rated by Verbalcommitts.com. Hopefully he's a still growing Bill Russell!

Welcome to the Tulane family, Charlie.

Looks athletic and poised in a couple videos I watched of him. Poise is so damn important, but I don't think most people understand that.
I don't yell. I don't scream. I don't argue. I just hit 'em over the head with a bottle.

Kid sounds like a bit of a project but with the size and athleticsim to have a lot of upside, especially in a defense-oriented system.

This article goes into a little more depth. Sounds like he was heading to a prep school year before Coaches Johnson and Hunter came along.

Thanks for the link. Reminds of Daniels late signing with us. He also had been impacted on the recruiting trail due to an injury. Hope he turns out as good or better.

Visited Tulane Thursday . . . Is phoneless Friday ? Sounds like a classic new orleans night at the boot and maybe jazz fest. Hope he had a good time and decides to come !

Hope both he and the transfering player out of Kansas have a great time in New Orleans and decide they want to join the Tulane family!

Me, too!

The link forced me to decide if I want to pay for Advocate/Nola coverage. I can no longer read the posts. While Im sure I will buy an online subscription, today just isn't the day. MBA...let's talk about this!

Have either K J LAWSON or Nic Thomas decided after visiting us ?

No news appears to mean we swung and missed on each . Unfortunately , most likely

Coach Hunter is facing the uphill battle to recruit SIX PLAYERS to fill out the coming season roster .

We have plenty of threads for the board mods to merge this into. PLEASE merge this into another MBB recruiting thread.

If they players signed elsewhere, we didn't land them. If they're still "on the market" the fat lady hasn't sung.

If anyone wants a good laugh, go back and re-view the press conference introducing coach Hunter. I stumbled upon it and got a few chuckles, looking at it over a month later.
