Tony Jones comes through

A dose of Wednesday evening WAC-itude

 Ray Bala at the raptorshq site has a report up on the Canadian men's development team and made this mention:

"...I had found out that two players that were invited to the camp had declined their invitations: Myck Kabongo [the brother of New Mexico State signee Christian Kabongo] and DJ Wright...As for Wright, I’m not sure why he did. If you remember, Wright was a First Team JuCo All American at Salt Lake Community College where he led his team to the National Championship before transferring to Mount San Jacinto in Cali. He had abruptly left about midway through the season and no one has heard from him since. It’s good to see he’s still on the radar though..."

It's Marcel Davis Day

Marcel Davis gets the full treatment today as Jared Eborn and Shawn Harrison offer features on the 2012 verbal to Utah State. Utah and BYU were showing interest.

That looks like it for now.

A correction

Per thelastdogman, Marcel Davis and Casey Oliverson are 2012 Utah State verbals, not 2011 as we typed earlier.
