More NeverStopRecruiting Retweeted Elias Sbiet
2019 JUCO wing Sean Miller-Moore to visit UMass 4/25-4/27, preceded by a visit to Oregon State 4/19-4/21. Fingers crossed here for UMass, Miller-Moore is a very good player who can fill a definite need, would be a great fit for both parties.
My feeling is that it's better to be the last visit. That theory will go out the window if he signs with Oregon State during the earlier visit. We have 3 spots to fill and maybe 5 or 6 players we are heavily involved with. One has to be a PG. As for bigs/wings, it might come down to whoever signs first gets the slot.
I would be extremely pleased if we were able to get Mika Adams-Woods and Sean Miller-Moore. I'm not opposed to anyone else, but I think I have a good idea what they bring, I really like them as players and how they fit both the program and what UMass has a need for right now.

Aaron Falzon from Northwestern is a grad transfer. UMass should vet him to see how healthy he is. If he's over his leg injuries he's worth the scholarship. The kid can shoot the ball from deep.

Pretty cool to see Marcus Camby tweeting at recruits encouraging them to come to UMass and backing McCall

Regarding Mika, if you haven't seen this video, it's worth 4 minutes of your time. I especially liked the way he passes the ball into the post.

You can never have enough great shooters in the three point era.
