Hurricanes Continue To Grow

The Miami Hurricanes have announced the signing of two newbies. Junior college transfer James Kelly signed a national letter of intent, as did Belgium point guard Manu LeComte.

The 6-8 Kelly averaged 18.3 points and 10.1 rebounds last season for Owens Community College. The Hurricanes are desperate for bodies underneath the rim and Kelly has one big body (245 pounds). However, he’s not a banger, preferring to face up, but is limited to his right hand.

Manu Lecomte is on the small side, barely 5-11. He’s a true point guard, who makes good, quick decisions with the ball. However, he’s going to need to add to his frame to withstand the punishment of ACC play.

If Jim Larranaga is lucky, he’ll only need Lecomte as a backup to Angel Rodriguez (the Canes are still waiting to see if the K-State transfer can play right away).

Along with Kelly, Lecomte and Rodriguez, the Hurricanes have a four-man recruiting class coming in, shooting guards Deandre Burnett and Davon Reed, small forward Derrick Griffin and point guard Corn Elder.
