More on Devante Wilson

So who would know the most about new Spartan Devante Wilson?

How about Lee College Coach Roy Champagne? In that position for 18 seasons as well as being the school's athletic director for five years, he obviously knows his basketball. Having mentored the 6-foot-4, 215 pound Wilson since 2011, he's the one who can provide the most accurate and current description.

Call Lee a bonafide member of the Wilson fan club.

As for Wilson the person:

"Devante has been a pleasure to have here. He's a top shelf young man who comes from a great family," Lee offered, adding 'it wouldn't be possible to find a greater kid. He's disciplined and he goes to class."

Regarding Wilson the basketball player:

"When he steps in the gym, he's in shooting range. Devante made nine three's in one game for us. But he can also attack the basket and finish at the rim. He has a great body and will dive on the floor for the ball -- he's a blue collar guy.

Asked how San Jose State University became aware of Wilson, Champagne explained," Omar Lowery. He's been coming through here for five years now." New at SJSU, Lowery had a four year stint at Cal Poly and a preceding three at Texas State.

Also, Wilson is originally from Oklahoma and Coach Wojcik assisted his brother Doug when the latter was head coach at Tulsa.

Also, Kenton Brooks serves up a feature on Wilson's signing.
