Did some digging around today and we were able to confirm that three visitors will be coming in next weekend (April 9-11). The three visitors are:

Marquise Carter > Point Guard > 6-4 > San Diego, Calif. (Three Rivers C.C)
Nick Thompson > Forward > 6-9 > Clinton, Utah (College of Eastern Utah)
Jawanza Poland > Guard > 6-4 > Wichita, Kan. (Hutchinson C.C.)

That is the list "for now" so there's a possibility more could be coming in. I hope to have some quotes from Carter and Poland on their interest in OU and upcoming visits by Monday.

Sign 'em all.

Nicely done, OUHoops!

Obviously next weekend will be huge in OU's recruiting efforts to fill needs and add more depth in 2010. I wouldn't mind at all if three of the scholarships available are spoken for when the weekend is over.

Hasn't Marquise Carter gotten a lot of hype? For some reason that name stands out. Sign 'em up coach!

Yeah, I even heard Northern Iowa was looking at him...

I just hope we don't sit there waiting and waiting for t. Jones and/or t. Ross to make a decision and end up losing some of these guys.
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

I like the size in this group...add one more post to that list and get Tiny back in an OU uniform, and I feel pretty comfortable about the makeup of our team next year...

Are any of the Utah schools looking at Thompson? I see where he signed with Weber out of hs.

Hopefully he follows the path of a certain ex-Weber St. football signee; Highpull...Hipple...Hypul....er, something like that. :D
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

how many years will these guys have left?
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

Think Poland has three years left.
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

Carter only has 2.
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

Correct. Carter and Thompson have two, Poland has three.
 
Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

Can Poland and Cam play together? If OU goes 4 guards that's not bad and could be a big line-up if it all plays out:

Carter- 6'4"
Poland- 6'4"
Cade- 6'4"
Cam- 6'7"
Tiny- 6'9"

I see no reason why Cam and Jawanza can't play together. I think both players could easily swing from the two to the three or the other way around.

I have been envious of teams in the tourney with versatile, athletic wings like Clark and Poland. With a little more weight and conditioning in the off season to increase his strength, Cam could even play the four if need be. Taylor Griffin played that position very well, and he was no taller than Cam.

I figured they could. How physical are these JUCO guys? OU really needs some guys that will get down and dirty. I'd love some Quannas White/Jason Heyward (Haywood?)=type players next year.
