With the addition of Denzel Bowles, Bob Gibbons of Scouts Inc ranks our recruiting class as 13th nationally and 2nd in the Big-12 (behind K-State). "The Aggies have reloaded ." Never heard of Denzel Bowles? Ya, me neither. Bowles (6'9''/210/PF) was a prized WSU recruit, but "lost interest in WSU" when $Bill stole Turgeon et al. Gregg Marshall (new WSU coach) was unable to convince Bowles to fulfill his commitments so he was released for his LOI earlier this month.

This may sound pretty shady but according to Bowles, Turgeon did not recruit him to A&M until after the release. Don't roll your eyes just yet, I think there is truth to this. Here is the series of events:

1. Billy G recruits more players than we have spots in anticipation of Joe not returning
2. $Bill hires Turgeon, WSU hires Marshall, Bowles is released from his LOI
3. Joe decides to return, we are forced to release Victor Dubovitsky
4. K-State signs the ruskie
5. Beasley decides to transfer, we have an open spot
6. Turgeon does not want to burn that spot so he signs a now uncommitted and prep school bound Bowles

Seems okay to me. If I was a Shocker I would be pissed.
