\"-12111913butler.jpg20131119\"<\/a>So apparently Everett Withers and the football team aren’t the only ones pulling in transfers from bigger schools this year. Matt Brady managed to land Butler Guard Devontae Morgan this week. Morgan certainly didn’t play much (think walk-on minutes) for the Bulldogs the last two years, but he was a Brad Stevens recruit and we’d say that speaks well of him in addition to the fact he’ll have a year to develop his game while sitting out and then still have two years of remaining eligibility. In any case, it’s another decent addition to a quietly encouraging offseason after the sting of losing Charles Cooke.<\/p>\n

Secondly, on a personal note, I have accepted a new job in Greensboro, NC, and have been busy getting started and moving so we’ve been a bit sporadic, but with the World Cup cranking up next week, we’ll be all over place on Twitter and FB. Also, the move still doesn’t convince us there’s anything even remotely resembling a silver lining about a conference with Elon in it.<\/p>\n
