Do we have an open scholarship for the rest of this year, or would he pay his way for the spring?
Anyone know the situation at UCLA? Do they have an immediate scholarship?

Looks like they have only 10 kids on scholarship for 14-15. I don't know how mid-year transfers work but it looks like they might have one available.
he has to decide pretty soon so he doesn't lose an extra semester of eligibility, correct?
OMG... I want this kid bad. Can you imagine adding this to Hoiball.....
I think they could put him on right away then. One thing to consider is travel savings back and forth will more than make up for one semester of tuition and expenses IMO
Keeping scholarships open is becoming more and more the right move. We kind of got lucky with Kane (lost Armardi) and McKay, but I think we have stud freshman Dillon Brooks right now if we had a spot for him.
Hopefully it won't be an issue this time. As much as I want to go for broke next year, Fred could really do some things with a 6'5" 240 athletic SF. He looks quick enough to defend most wings, and would be tough to defend in our inverted offense and a great finisher on the break.
Ala DeAndre Kane....
We didn't have a spot for McKay last year, he paid his own way for a semester.
