From Tony Jones: "Utah state hoops is expected to offer 2014 small forward Tre'Shawn Thurman....one of top 2014 prospects in Nebraska"
+++++
Trey Rolle was before PTW's time, if I had a time -- he's #14 on Matt Sonnenberg's Aggie countdown.
+++++
From Eric Bossi: "Keep an eye on Double Pump Elite 2013 shooting guard/small forward
Michael Thomas. A 6-foot-5 senior to be at El Camino Real in Los
Angeles, Thomas is a late blooming southpaw with athleticism, length and
a very good looking jump shot. Early suitors include Boise State,
UC-Davis and Utah State as his first three offers to go along with
interest from Washington State, Arizona State, Nevada and UCSB."
+++++
Have to mention this: the Star Advertiser reports that Bill Amis is trading in his jersey to tackle the Honolulu real estate market. It's good to see a former player stick around his college town. Not to get all parochial but Honolulu versus Oklahoma, well, let's just say that's not a difficult decision.

Wednesday's WAC hoops digest
Jason Groves saves the day with a post about the Aggie team leaders come the 2012-13 season. That's a fascinating topic as Big Wen leaves behind an oversized role to fill -- let's see who comes to the fore.
Found a few more items...
Matt Sonnenberg is rolling ... Morgan Grim has joined the play-for-pay ranks.
+++++
The Fresno Bee reports a 6-foot-9 Kansas community college player has given a 2013 verbal to Coach Rodney Terry. Give the man a raise!
+++++
Check out Bill Amis' interview here.

Saturday's WAC hoops roundup
Bill Amis is headed to Eastern Europe. The video showdown with Zane Johnson will have to be postponed.
+++++
Tony Jones reports that prepster Jordan Loveridge is no longer considering Utah State. However, what is incongruent (read the article) is that Weber State is still in the running despite its Big Sky Conference affiliation. Yes, Weber has been doing very well under Coach Randy Rahe but certainly no better than the Aggies. USU basketball needs to get to the Mountain West in order to pick off some of the higher level high schoolers, particularly the in-staters, Marcel Davis et al notwithstanding..
+++++
Chris Murray has much more on southern California frontcourter Skylar Spencer.
+++++
Last but certainly not least, Dayton (Mr. Multi-Media) Morinaga is back with another pair of posts here and here.
