Subject: this is what I know
In reply to: Jon Ralston 's message, "Re: Tyler Newton" on 22:52:20 03/21/02 Thu

"Our center, Tyler Newton, has been contacted by several universities with varying interest. The following is a list of schools; University of Pacific, UC Irvine, Boise State, St. Mary's(Moraga, CA), Oregon, Oregon State, LMU, Santa Clara and Cal Poly, SLO. The teams that have had the most follow up are UC Irvine and UOP."

That's straight from the head coach, so I don't know if you have offered or not.

From what I've read of him, he's more of a rebounder than a scorer. First team all state JC though, that's saying quite a bit about his game, even if he is thin. Ian McVey, the 6'10" C from Fergus Falls CC in Minnesota that tripped to both UOP and USU but signed with the Aggies is also thin. He may go 210, 215 at the most.

I know you follow basketball recruiting closely, so you know that this time of year everyone is after height. There are still big men out there, just not the highly rated ones and there are others that fall through the cracks.

Like the man said, if you have a good guardline in college ball, you always have a chance to win. You have a good one now with Doubley coming in, but anytime a team has a chance to sign a real good guard like the one you mentioned, take him. He can always sit for a year, then get playing time as a freshman when Jackson leaves. But you already knew that.

Check out a player from San Francisco CC named Chris Adams who was completely overlooked coming out of hs in California. He's a 6'10 C was getting some good looks early in the year, but left the team around January. I don't know why. I'm sure your head coach knows all about him.
