Feel like this is the Bobbi/Damezi replacement. Chicago native, 6’7 wing, super senior, career 40% shooter from 3.

Loves the spin move, can put the ball on the floor a little and make some space, looks like a great add, and some more veteran stability that will benefit this team.

Athletic, 6-7, and can shoot. Sign me up. Drew likes his guards big, and his wings versatile. This would seem to fit that mold.

We’ll have some size next year, for sure.

Great add. He's a really high character guy and will be one of the leaders on the squad. Plus he can flat out play.

Wonder if this means no Sheldon Edwards. I think our last scholarship should be used on an experienced PG type player who can give Braden some breathers.

Wilson was (is?) the winningest player in Niles Notre Dame history with 101 wins.

WOW. Another long athletic wing player. Drew is doing a great job in the portal. We got a very good post player in Golden and two athletic wings in Wilson and Alston! I love how we now have multiple players 6’6 or bigger on the roster and depth on the frontline. The highlight clip of Wilson is very impressive. He can create his own shot, make open looks, pass and he works as a defender. I am excited to see how this group comes together with out returning players and the incoming Freshmen. I actually think that top to bottom, next year’s team maybe the best r at least very close to the best collection of basketball player we will had here at LU. I maybe drinking the Kool-Aid, but I am excited.

We still have one slot open. These guys who came in recently and who we have offered better not wait or they gonna miss a chance to be on a very good ball club that is starting to like we can get back to the dance next year, especially if a couple of the Freshman coming in contribute.

So Cam Spencer visited over the weekend. Visits Rutgers Mon/Tues and then we should hear. If we get him, we'd be pretty stacked -- always tough to say how guys are going to mesh, especially these one-year guys, but that would be a lot of talent. Great job in the portal so far.

Some of you are penning in guys to be starters who will be making huge jumps in competition. The guys we have were all probably more talented in high school than anyone but golden

Well I think most assume Golden will start, but he's coming from starting in the Big East. For the other two transfers, it's probably safe to assume they'll get at least Schweiger/Knight minutes, given that we're losing long-term starters at the SF and PF positions.

I still really think Saint Thomas can make a push to start this year on the wing. Long and strong with buckets of confidence, and I think some real potential to be able to create his own shot. Either way, I feel 1000% better about our depth than I did 2 weeks ago.
