With his athleticism, particularly his jumping ability, I see Scottie coming in and challenging at the three-spot. He is a slasher offensively, much like Anthony was. Scottie has the kinds of athletic skills that will make him a perfect fit in our up-tempo style. Originally from Alexander City, Ala., Vines averaged 26.4 points and 6.0 rebounds his senior season at Benjamin Russell High School in Alexander City where he played for head coach Paul Carney. He is the son of Jeannie and Lucious Vines.
Vines is the first spring signee for Wyoming.
He joins three high school student-athletes who signed with the Wyoming Basketball program during the early signing period in November of 1999.
