Deane on Duty... "Mike is a guy who can really blossom in out program. He comes from a winning high school team where his role was more significant than his stats. The O'Dea teams would typically score in the 40s so his overall numbers do not reflect on his true ability. He can play either forward position and has an impressive all around game. I expect him to make an immediate contribution and could contend for a starting position in the winter."
