Boll Weevils at Wichita State

By Paul Suellentrop

Shockwaves

Here’s a small bit of news: WSU won’t play a game at Intrust Bank Arena this season. WSU couldn’t find a date that worked, so that plan is tabled until next season. Plans to play a non-conference game at IBA remain in motion. No opponent or date yet.

Demetric Williams is in khaki shorts and a polo shirt. No need for him to test his sprained left ankle tonight, even if it’s possible. WSU needs him Monday and Tuesday, not tonight.

What’s a Boll Weevil?

Indiana State bounced back from a loss to LSU to beat Milwaukee (Not the Bucks – Brandon Jennings is way too good). The Omaha World-Herald’s Tom Shatel provides 13 spicy hoops items this season, including WSU-Creighton. Ben Smith. Possible recruit. What are the Shockers looking for with their available scholarship? A point guard to replace Clevin Hannah seems likely. However, if Demetric Williams, Kenny Manigault and Toure Murry prove they can handle the point, WSU might be able to look at a wing player. Three Rivers Community College guard Marquise Carter visited and liked WSU. He won’t sign in the fall. WSU might not need a point guard by the spring. One thing is for sure, Shocker coaches can be picky about their 13th player.
