Nice article for UC
Yates, a local kid who was ranked No. 36 by Scout.com and 22nd by Rivals.com, will be a part of what Cronin hopes is one of the most intimidating frontlines in the country this year. Former Texas power forward Mike Williams is healthy after rupturing his Achilles tendon in preseason workouts a year ago, talented 7-footer Anthony McClain should also make an impact after missing last season with bone spurs in his foot – and the wild card may be the academic status of recent signee John Riek.
Even if Riek doesn’t make it, a frontcourt rotation that includes Yates, McClain, Western Carolina transfer Nick Aldridge and Steve Toyloy, who led the junior college ranks in rebounding last season, will be a major upgrade from what Cronin has had in his first two years.
