A native of Phoenix, Ariz., Borchert made an immediate impact in the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) after transferring from Yavapai College in Arizona.<span> </span>The 6-foot-8, 225-pound forward averaged 15.3 points per game this past season along with leading the Lions in rebounding (7.7 rpg), blocked shots (41) and made 3-pointers (41).<span> </span>With seven double-doubles on the year, Borchert connected on 47 percent of his field-goal attempts, including 41-of-109 (38%) from beyond the three-point arc, and 74 percent from the charity stripe.
For all the Bitchin I did about Ray if he gets this guy he may actually put enough talent on the floor next year to win 12 or 13 games... Its not like the league will be loaded next year.......
pretty impressive if he does. Not exactly a team I would expect to be scratching around with whoever is available like we are.
is the fact that he's not just throwing his hands up and saying 17 it, even though he knows he'll be given a pass the first 1-2 years. These guys he's signing now may not be superstars but he's scrappin' for what he can get, and I like that mentality. It's basically the exact opposite of what Croom did.
the guys he is signing right now are some of the best left around. NO, they aren't Pollard level but they are guys that should be able to contribute relatively early. After reading Paul's writeup on 24/7 apparently this dude has offers from both Georgetown and Xavier. Pretty impressive at this stage of the game.
He graduated HS in 2009, so we could use some age on this team. I guess he still has two years left to play.
Had some nice offers out of High School.

He would be a solid pickup, although he isn't going to help us in the paint. With Lewis a senior and Ziedaks a junior, we are going to have to sign two or three true post players next year. It wouldn't hurt to land one of the 300 something players who are currently in the midst of transferring.
We are set at SG for the foreseeable future, but we need help everywhere else.

better player, go get this athlete that appears to have a nose for the ball. He's like 6'7 but can bang and get up. I liked his stats and video that was posted somewhere. If we don't get some help inside, we are gonna get killed on the boards next season. Wendell and Ware can't get all the rebounds!
Borchert has a nice stroke and is good in the open court, but I like the sheer athletism or Clark over him. We need a strong, rebounding guy and of these 2, Clark is who I'd like. Now, if we get Borchert, fine, no complaints. I just think we need more inside presense than another 6'7 guy that is better suited for the perimeter
If it is Georgetown in DC we might have a better chance with Kirby going to LSU. Or maybe he goes to LSU?
