A-10 Commitments for 2011-12

Per Zagoria, Tom Pecora confirms that Fordham commits Fatty McMillan and Jeff Short will prep in 2010-11 prior to heading to Rose Hill in 2011-12.

Duquense has a top 100 player visiting campus Thursday, Aaron Thomas, along with Jalen Ragland.

Added 6-8 PF Cady Lalanne to list as UMass commit. The former UGA signee will sit out 2010-11 as a non-qualifier. Good get for Minutemen, who have a decent history with NQs (with the glaring exception of Tiki Mayben, of course!).

Lalanne does indeed appear headed to Amherst per Matt Vautour’s blog and Rivals. As reported earlier, will sit out 2010-11 as a non-qualifier.

per twitter: Steven Zack '11 of Redland (PA) has verbally committed to La Salle.

moss, thanks! The 6-9/240 Zack is also a pitcher for his high school’s baseball team. Sounds like Dr. G is adding some size in anticipation that Murray will be gone after this coming season.

Changed Zacks’s height after reading that he’s grown a couple of inches!

Reading on Spidernation.com that Richmond received a commitment this weekend from 5-9 PG Kendall Anthony of Jackson, TN. That leaves just one more for Mooney to complete UR’s 2011 class. I believe the Niners and Spiders are competing for the services of E. Victor Nickerson, Eli Carter, and Jabril Trawick, among others.

Cothron has been admitted by UMass and will sit-out 2010-11.

Will have to pay his way a la Phil Jones.

More from Vautour, who points out that a spot for Cothron opened up with now ex-UMass commit 6-8 PF David Laury headed to JUCO. Like Jesse Morgan and Cady Lalanne, Cothron will sit out a season and pay his own way until eligible.

RT @DMcDonaldHoops: 2011 Point Guard Will Cummings has committed to Temple.

When will we get to have a player listed on commitments for 2011-2012. It seems so long ago since we got a commitment.

moss, thanks! Cummings is a Rivals 3-star out of Jacksonville, FL (Providence School), who played with 2010 TU recruit Anthony Lee on Nike Team Florida. Providence was 2010 Florida 2A state champs.

GW picks up a commit from 6-7 PF Jonathon Davis out of Simi Valley, CA. 3-stars per Rivals and Scout who picked Colonials over offers from Hawai’i, SMU, Utah, and UTEP.

2k, thanks! Have added both to the list, as well as re-added PJ Lockbridge for URI, who will sit out this season as a non-qualifier.
