It is May 13th and we already have the best roster in the A10.

Not on transfers. .778 avg over the last four seasons: Hits: Okoro, Perkins, Linssen, Nesbitt, Jones, Weaver, Isabell (Bess and Foreman were also on the '18-'19 team, but transferred earlier). Misses: Williams, Wiley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time August rolls around and we've gotten whoever we're going to get, there will still be hundreds of players looking for a home.

I think concern is absolutely a fair emotion among the fanbase. slu72 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 40 minutes ago, slu72 said: Has Crespin decided? No. It's over a week since Stu said it was down to SLU and Washington State but his graduation was just this weekend so he may have been waiting to get home and do that first. To be clear, he's not a transfer - 2022 recruit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Add Chuks Isitua to the "staff following" list. 6-11, 220 lb. C from IUPUI. Averaged 5.6 and 4.6 in 21.6 MPG as a freshman. Shot .520 from the field and .574 from the line. Started playing basketball at 13, moved to the US from Nigeria at 14, attended Jack Yates HS in Texas. Good student. 3 years to play. Doesn't jump out as the most exciting prospect because he didn't put up big numbers on what was a pretty bad team but there might be some upside here given his size and the fact that he's still a bit raw.

GOSLU68 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Just like Linssen we need a big not content to give up minutes to Okoro- it would not hurt if someone like Conklin could teach the bigs to be barriers to the paint area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 No doubt the guys we’re looking for are critical role players unless we’re gonna be a 7 man team that can play without a PG for 5 -10 minutes and no Big for 10-15 mpg. I’m still trying to figure out why we didn’t make more of an effort to keep Traore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
