Playing "Follow the Clues" again to ID a BB player:

Columbia recruits as of July 3, 2009, per HoopsScoop:

268. COLUMBIA (4 Points)..........2 Recruits..........2.0 Talent Rating Average Per Recruit..........Ivy League..........(2) Mark Cisco, 6'8, C, Mendham (West Morris Menham) NJ: (2) Dean Kowalski, 5'8, PG, Elizabeth (St. Patrick) NJ.

So perhaps our mistery walk-on is Dean Kowalski...??

Some of this drama is worthy of a James Patterson mistery novel. Where's Detective Alex Cross when we need him...? ;-)
