Idaho adds one more player

The official signing period has passed but players can still sign with college teams and vice versa -- just not an actual letter-of-intent. Idaho just landed a transfer, a Vegas native whose academic and legal concerns caused him to be dropped by UNLV. Hopefully the young man will seize the opportunity and be the point guard Coach Don Verlin envisions:

Look for former UNLV basketball player Marcus Lawrence to join former Bishop Gorman High teammate Kashif Watson at the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho...

and

From a February 15 Rob Miech/Las Vegas Sun article:

"UNLV suspended sophomore basketball player Marcus Lawrence after he was arrested early Friday morning for driving under the influence and failure to drive in a travel lane...

...Lawrence served a suspension at the beginning of the season for academic issues."
