Korey McCray expected to come in from Atlanta AAU ranks. We're about to jump in the AAU recruiting game big time.
We've got a pipeline to Saudi Arabia now!
I guess he got the 3rd slot instead of Garson. I wonder if Garson decided to stay a HC or Howland just chose Zeigler. Either way another coach he is used to having on staff.
He has a lot of international experience. That could be a very useful pipeline.Quote:

McCray is with Howland at the baseball game, so it looks like that's a done deal.
Anybody know for sure on Zeigler vs. Garson? Both seem like good options.
Met McRay at the game with Howland. He introduced himself as the new assistant coach and said he was glad to be on board. Sounds official to me. Howland quite impressive!
He spoke to Garson about the job but he decided to stay as a HC. So Zeigler was the next choice.Quote:

Looks like it.Quote:

Is McCray going to be huge difference maker as a recruiter, or is this going to be a bit slower process than many are expecting?
Personally, I'm not expecting us to pull in multiple elite guys. But is as in as you can possibly be with one of the top AAU programs in the country and also obviously has ties with other programs as well.Quote:
