In case anyone missed it, Chris Gaspar had a
nice piece in the Globe on Thursday.
As far as recruits go, they include:
C.J. Anderson, SF, 6'5", 175 (Memphis TN)
Rashaan Armstead-Holloway, C, 6'10", 280 (Elmer NJ)
Info on uncommitted players with reported offers from UMass can be found

I'm wondering what's up with
Isaac "Izzy" Freeman, the 7-footer who was ruled academically ineligible mid-season (January 2013) and
transferred to a community college in Missouri to get his grades in order. The latter link said he had hoped to transfer back to D-I after a year there, but I have no idea if that could mean a return to UMass. Oddly, he's in
State Fair CC's team pic (back row in glasses wearing #1), but he's
not on their roster nor can I find any mention of him playing since
registering a double-double in November. So I assume that ship has sailed.
There's also
Donte Clark, SG, 6'4", 180 (Charlotte NC), who signed last summer after failing to qualify academically as a VA Tech recruit. As such, he'll need to make the grade on APR and won't be eligible to play until 2014-15 at the earliest.
