Update: Mike Gabbard (Boone Co)

Talked with him earlier tonight and he noted that he recently started talking to Troy University.

Gabbard currently holds an offer from D2 Ashland University but said that he'd like to play at either Morehead or Troy.

"I would say Morehead is number one on my list and I think they're still pretty interested,"

Morehead has been in earlier to watch Gabbard work out over the summer.

"I've just been shooting every day at practice, trying to get a more consistent jump shot."

When asked about Morehead and Troy, Mike said the following:

"Right now I would like to play at Morehead or Troy because they're D1 but it's going to come down to playing time for me, I think. I want to come in somewhere and play right away."

I asked Mike what type of player he expected to be at the next level.

"Probably more of a role player and someone who runs the offense and gets other people shots."

Mike's Boone Co team will be in action at Lexcath next week end and will face a very talented Seneca team in the first round. This should be a great opportunity for the 6'0 senior to receive more interest.

"I've been reading up on them a little bit but I think it'll be a good game. We can play with them."

Never one to lack confidence and that's what makes him the player that he is. I'll try to stay in touch with Mike as the season progresses adn keep everyone updated.
