added W&M sharpshooter and former Creighton target in Matt Milon. Milon would likely have a similar role as Cashaw did this year. Can't see him unseating Mintz/TSA/Ballock in the backcourt for more minutes than 10 a game and he does not have the rebounding or defensive presence to play the 4 over larger wings like Jefferson or Mahoney. He is an elite shooter and would be an effective weapon off the bench. Don't see it happening although Mac and staff really liked him during his recruitment, we just loaded at his spot.
Also added Anthony Duruji a 6-6, long, athletic wing who has a decent stroke from outside. Duruji is a great rebounder and plays with a high motor. He's originally from Maryland and it seems clear he wants to play up at another conference level than he was in with LA Tech. He's a sit one play two player. Could see him be successful as a 4 man in the lineup and the player who would not be shy from being the junkyard dog we need that can get a rebound, push the tempo from that spot, who is also capable of hitting a three to help space the floor. One to watch!
