Now We're Talkin'!

BEVERLY HILLS (MI) -- Welcome to Coach Archie Miller’s newest Flyer recruit, Khari Price of Salmen (LA) HS. Khari is only the second player in Flyer hoops history to come from the state of Louisiana and best of all, he’s a PG!

Scout.com’s Brian Snow gives us the rare freebie profile on Price, so click it while it’s hot!

Khari’s commitment leaves Archie and staff with two scholarships left to give for the Class of 2012.

Among those in the running for the remaining slots are:

-- Former Ohio U commit Caris LeVert, who has absolutely blown up since obtaining his release from the Bobcats. Here are some LeVert links:

-- These newly released NCAA eligibility requirements won’t take effect until 2015, so none of the guys listed above have to worry about them (now with PowerPoint slideshow goodness):

-- The Basketball Prospectus analyzes “The Stevens Effect” by charting the average age of first-time Division I coaching hires in each of the last 21 years. This theory certainly came into play with Archie’s hiring:

-- Stat Sheet looks at this trend from a different angle -- by tracking the average age of college head coaches over the last 12 seasons:

--UConn isn’t the only NCAA hoops team that has been ruled ineligible for the 2013 NCAA Championship due to a low APR -- so have the Toledo Rockets:

-- Andy Katz says that the Jarrod Uthoff transfer ordeal at Wisconsin has caused college coaches to formalize their transfer policies:

Bo Ryan’s defense was that he’s only had one kid transfer from Wiscy in 10 years. Former Flyer Mickey Perry says hello, Coach.

-- Magic Johnson was in the Dayton area this week and Tom Archdeacon of The DDN caught up with him:

Here is Arch’s blog post that has some more quotes from Magic, including a great story on how his dad negotiated his first contract for him with the Lakers:
