Bzdelik got a late commit, Marcus Relphorde (6'7'' 220), out of junior college. He chose Colorado over scholarship offers from Arkansas and TCU. He is originally from Chicago.

He averaged 12 points and 5 rebounds per game in junior college last year, and hit nearly 45% of his 3pt shots. He said he played the 2-3 in juco. He is a very good 3pt shooter at 6'7'', and should fit in well with the Princeton offense.

Here is a video from when he was at Saint Louis University, where he went out of high school.

This completes the CU recruiting class.

Shannon Sharpe (6'0'' 190, point guard)

Alec Burks (6'4'' 185, shooting guard)

-Gatorade Player of the Year in Missouri. Averaged 23 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists per game. #1 player in the state, and had 30 points and 14 rebounds vs. Mizzou commit Michael Dixon. Shoots 45% from the 3pt line.

Shane Harris-Tunks (6'11'' 250, center)

-Widely considered the #1 center in Australia for the class of 2009. He is from the well known Australia Institute of Sport and will be a member of the World Championship team representing Australia in July. Harris-Tunks is very skilled and physical and his body is Big 12 ready. A good athlete that runs the floor well and can score on the low block with jump hooks using either hand. His shooting range is to the arc and can make a few threes with time and space.

Keegan Hornbuckle (6'6'' 190, shooting guard)

-"Hornbuckle has an almost effortless jumper with a near-perfect follow-through, which also makes him a very good shooter from the perimeter. He also has very good athleticism and runs the floor well, which makes him a threat as a spot-up 3-point shooter in transition or as a finisher above the rim while running the break"-ESPN.. Chose CU over offers from Oregon State, Arizona, and Nevada.
 
That class should be enough to challenge for 6 conference wins.
 
Still not good enough to get them 6, abd. You are the best I know at polishing turds. lol

-#1 big guy out of Australia, with offers from other major schools
-Gatorade Player of the Year in Missouri with other Big 12 offers
-Big time athlete at point guard
-6'7'' juco shooter with SEC offers
-6'6'' shooter with offers from some Pac-10 schools, including Arizona.

Is that not a good recruiting class for a team that just finished last place? lol...
They add these guys to Higgins, Dufault, Tomlinson, and Thorne.

They are going to get to 6 conference wins.

How can CU possibly do better in recruiting right now?

I am pondering what avatar I am going to make BigTime have for a month. I know it will be something Jayhawkish, for sure.
 
If they keep adding pieces, they might have a chance to move up to 10th.

I need them to finish around 9th, which should give them 6 wins. 6 wins is all I need, and anything else is gravy.
 
Yes, signing Marcus Relforde is a very big deal. They should be proud. :woot
