Cajuns Open Conference Play At Arkansas St. – At A Glance

[Parrott]

This will be a telling game for both teams. The Cajuns have surpassed my expectations after losing Long. Bartley has been a huge addition and can really score and defend. Washington has been huge inside. Arkansas State is off to a great start under new coach Grant McCasland, a former Baylor assistant who coached Midland College to a JC national title and Midwestern State to the D2 Elite Eight twice. The Red Wolves won at Georgetown and beat Chattanooga and Lehigh (both favored to win their leagues). They have several quality, versatile guards, defend well and can shoot it from the outside.

How many new guys has McCasland brought in? Freshman? Transfers? Are any starting and/or significant contributors?

[Parrott]

McCasland inherited some all-conference guards in Carter and Thomas and a shooter in Kern. Simms was a JC All-America guard & Lindsey has been solid guard as a JC transfer. McCasland also brought in their top bigs, a 6-7 junior (Bruce), 6-8 freshman (Boudie) and 6-4 freshman (Simmons). They have a bunch of long, active guys between 6-3 and 6-7 and only one post taller than 6-8 and one at more than 210 pounds.
