His 25% was a freshmen. Shot 36% from 3 this past year (only shot 1.6/gm, so still not a shooter by any means). No idea on the competition but his team went 20-1. 8 boards and 3.3 assists a game is a good sign.

Those stats posted above are from 2019-2020. He shot 36.4% from three this past season. Not a huge volume but certainly an improvement. The kid is a scorer.

Looks like the Juco season is still going on. Morgan’s team is in his conference championship game (went for 19-11-3 in the semi). Championship game today. Bracket reveal for Juco tomorrow (24 team tournament). His team is ranked 7th, so even if the don’t win today, should be in the tournament.

In a year with incredible transfer portal numbers and immediate eligibility, I’m surprised we’ve only really seen JUCO or HS offers/additions. Anyone have an estimate of how many more scholarships we have or if they’ve heard about Coach Johnson searching in the portal?
They’ve added one transfer, Nate Lacewell, from San Jose State (Missouri City, Tx).
Small is confirmed coming back. Assuming Davis and Adams are moving on I have it at 12 scholarships filled. 13 is the limit. Small probably doesn’t count as the extra eligibility guys aren’t counting this next season, figure basketball is the same. So probably two spots open.

Oh man, another Juco instead of a transfer, but I like those numbers. We’ve added some scorers it seems. 23 ppg as a senior in HS, 21 ppg as a freshman at Blinn.

Seems like a good group!
I like the class. Hopefully Morgan is ready to play a role but should should be able to play three guards a decent amount if needed.

Which might be true but hate losing such a good student and kid with athleticism, albeit still raw from a basketball perspective. Potential to be a nice player and great teammate.
