Alton is a mature, explosive player. He can play three different positions and will bring toughness, rebounding and basketball savvy to the team. He can be an offensive force for us.

We played pretty well against them, but we didn't have any answers for (MWC player of the year) Brandon Heath. They're an unbelievably talented team, a team playing with a lot of confidence. We'll start with Michael Harrison on Heath, and hopefully we can make him take tough shots.

Nile Murray is an extremely talented player. Although their record doesn't show it, they're a very talented team.

He's a guy who's a veteran and has some savvy and toughness,

I had a son who wanted to play college basketball, so this is what we did. We made up a resume sheet that had his picture, academic and athletic information, and then put together a good tape that showed some highlights of his season. After that we picked out 50 or so schools that he was interested in, and then mailed the packets. Then we followed up with phone calls. We ended up getting a great response. He signed with a school in Nebraska (York College) and got to play a few years before hurting his knee.

Be a player; don't play yourself. And don't play basketball. That's not your sport, Jeb Bush.
