SCOUTING REPORT: Cameron is 164 points short of the all-time scoring record here at The Citadel. He has shown me quickness and solid ball handling abilities. Put those two ingredients together, in our system, and we will see Cam putting the ball in the hole on a regular basis. What has impressed me most though is his ability to play defense. He has worked hard this summer to get in great shape and that will be necessary in order for him to play the way we want him too. Cam is going to be fun to coach.
