As a freshman at Binghamton, Talley notched 11.8 PTS / 3.7 REB / 2.1 AST while shooting just over 30% from 3pt range on his way to being named the America East conference Rookie of the Year.

Following that season, he decided to transfer to Blinn C.C. as a step toward getting to a higher level D1 program. At Blinn, Talley has averaged 21.5 PTS / 6.6 REB / 4.0 AST while improving his 3pt shooting to over 36%.

Here are his highlights from his freshman year at Binghamton:

interesting... we are in on a LOT of different possibilities to fill the spot potentially left by Burks... Are we really only signing one person this upcoming signing period?

Ideally, I'd like to see us take 2 JUCOs if we had room. One wing who we can count on to be a double digit scorer next season and one inside presence.

makes sense. gotta split up these classes, and we already got 3 true frosh coming in. I know who I want as the inside presence. And as far as the wing goes, I really want us to get a guy with a nice shot from the 3pt line to fill Levi's GIGANTIC shoes.

Isnt Blinn the same place Birdman went to school?

I wonder how many of Burce's BBQ's he has attended...

Committed to Nebraska this past weekend. His updated Rivals page shows no offer from Colorado. Perhaps our interest in him will be rekindled if Burks leaves.

I don't see us taking another guard this cycle. My guess is that we're looking for a wing who can play the 3 and the 4.

Maybe, but we already have two players who would fit that description with Roberson and Cain and three of the four players who are reported to have CU offers are guards. Maybe there is a target we don’t know about but at this point in the process I think you take the best player you can get regardless of position. If Talley could be flipped he would immediately help to ease the scoring burden. Hopefully Burks returns and this is all a mute point.
