Congrats to both Brandon and Jamel.

 

They were both key components to Holmes success this past season and I wish them nothing but the best in their future endeavors.

Nice, good for them.

Great Job guys have fun with your former teammate.

Congrats to two fine basketball players. Cincinnati State is a junior college, correct? Any word on where Henderson might end up after next season?

[The Observer]

Congrats JaMel and Brandon. Hit the books and success will follow on the court for the both of you.

 

Cincinnati State is becoming Holmes North, and that's not a bad thing.

[Big Slick]

Congrats!

Both players signed today at 12:30.

 

Here is a little from Ryan Ernst blog:

 

Holmes senior guards JaMel Riley and Brandon Housley will sign with Cincinnati State at 12:30 p.m. Wednesday according to Holmes coach David Henley. Riley, the Bulldogs' starting point guard, and Housley, the team's sixth man, helped lead Holmes to the program's first state title this season. Riley, a member of the all-tournament team, averaged 10 points a game and shot 41 percent from 3-point range. Housley, one of the team's top defenders, averaged seven points a game.

 

Henley on Housley: "He's just one of those guys who worked hard every day at practice and made himself better. He didn't put up huge numbers, but it seemed like he always made big plays when we needed them."

 

Henley on Riley as a possible Division I player: "It depends on if it's the right situation. In a program that likes to spread the floor and penetrate and pitch to shooters, he could fit in."
