In recent news

Both Mike Green and A.J. Graves will be traveling to San Antonio this weekend, just not with the entire team. A.J. Graves will be participating in the 3-Point Championship on Thursday, April 3 on ESPN at 9 p.m. (ET). Green will take the court at the Alamodome on Friday, April 4, to play in the NABC All-Star Game. The game features two teams of college basketball's top seniors and will be played in the Men's Final Four venue for the first time. Tip-off for the NABC All-Star Game is 5:15 p.m. (CT) (all info posted on Athletics site).

In somewhat sadder news, one of the men's basketball players asked and was granted a release from the basketball team. Sophomore Elliot Engelmann was granted a release from the basketball team to transfer to another school. The school in which he will attend was neither given or hinted at there is one yet, in the press release. Career-wise, I must say this is a good move for him, because with the new freshman they are getting in along with the possible junior college player that they may get in for next season, he may not see that much playing time. This I am not sure about though, just a guess. I am somewhat sad to hear that he will be leaving though, best of luck to him in the future.
