Thoughts on the updating of the roster

Under the Shields regime, the roster generally was not updated until it was finalized. Thus, it is a little strange to see new recruits listed this early, when we know we are not through with recruiting.

There were rumors that the Memphis jucos were leaving, but they are still on the roster. That would seem to indicate that they are staying, since the other players rumored to be leaving are not listed. Maybe that means nothing, and the process simply is not yet finalized, but why list them on a partially-completed roster if you are not sure they are staying?

Mareik Isom is finally listed at 6-9.

We have a notable gap in our roster. There are no players 6-7 or 6-8, which we almost always have had, and only one at 6-6. Strange. Maybe the remaining recruits will fill that void. On the other hand, the shortest player listed it 6-1, and we almost always have players shorter than that.
