I especially like that he's pretty well built for both SF and interior play, although I probably need to concentrate on either inside or outside defense with him.

I have 166 recruiting points currently. I didn't spend any points either last year or this year and got Muzalia last year.

However, I did spend $40K my first couple seasons in DIII, and then I paired it back to $20K last season. I'll probably keep it at this level until I get over 200 points.

I'll probably dig heavily into next year's draft for guard play, but I'll definitely need to go out and buy a SG to replace Zangiacomi for Season 31, and then hopefully get a trainee as backup.
