RB Adonis Ameen-Moore has given a verbal commitment to 'Cuse for next year. This could be a pretty significant pick up for the class especially after the Averin Collier debacle. Its nice to see that we beat out our pinstripe bowl opponent, K-State for his signature. He had offers from some fairly big programs (K-State, Northwestern, and Utah) so thats an encouraging sign that not all of our guys are being recruited by Akron. Props to HCDM and Tyrone Wheatley for this one.

So the new espn top 100 rankings came out today and our standing is as follows:

Michael Carter-Williams #18

Rakeem Christmas #19

Trevor Cooney #62

Thats a pretty stellar haul by Hop and Murph. After reading the scouts reports it sounds like all 3 have what it take to buy into our shut it down defensive philosophy. MCW sounds sounds like he's a bigger Jonny Flynn, a slasher with a consistent stroke. Christmas seems like he's of the Hak mold, great shot blocker and a freakish athlete. With Cooney's deep threat this seems like a really balanced class that, when combined with this year's, could be pretty special a couple years from now.
