Forward Denied Admission
Mory Correa, a 6-9, 215-pound power forward from Pratt CC in Pratt, Kansas who committed to Oklahoma State, has been denied admission to the Cowboys' school. Previously, Correa told us he picked Oklahoma State over Texas Tech, Cleveland State, and Creighton.
RivalsHoops.com has learned that Cleveland and Wyoming have emerged as the frontrunners with Buffalo also under consideration.

Correa is a fine run/jump athlete who plays exceptionally hard and is willing to mix it up in the paint. Though many European big men get a bad rap for being soft, Correa does not really fit that mold.
In fact, he's the reverse in that his shooting skills are lacking (shoots on a line drive and lacks touch) and his hands are not great. But he's a battler, he's tall and he can run and jump, and at this time of the year, that ain't all that bad.
Correa took two official visits in September -- one to Texas Tech and the other to Cleveland State.
