Thursday's WAC-aroo

Okay, we need the New Mexico State fans to chime in on this one -- why the drawing out of the process in both K.C. Ross-Miller or Marsell Houlden making their respective calls?

Ross-Miller has made three or four commitments during his various periods of eligibility and always mentions fairly high level possible destinations when asked about his next destination. NMSU would be a terrific place for his talent level and he would see early playing time. Plus, it would be close to his family home in Texas.

Houlden is smaller at 5-foot-11 but a better distance shooter and scorer (231 of his 285 shot attempts this past season were three-point tires, made 41%). Out of Pennsylvania and then San Jacinto Junior College in Texas, he would bring the scoring explosiveness that disappeared when Jahmar Young and Jonathan Gibson departed Las Cruces.

May 18 is the cutoff date for a letter-of-intent although recruits can sign a non-binding financial agreement after that date.

+++++

San Jose State University has landed 6-foot-3 Aptos High guard Nick Grieves (scroll down after clicking on the link) as an invited walk-on. 

+++++

Let's call this a trade of sorts:

Utah State reserve walk-on Brad Brown has found a new Utah home.This is from the Westminster site.

Utah State hoops is adding walk-on Sam Orchard, a point out of Salt Lake City whose brother plays at Westminster College.
