I'm going to try to not get too excited about this possibility too. Been burned WAY too often this offseason for that.

Wichita State scares me a bit. We shouldn't lose recruits to Wichita State, but they are a well known basketball powerhouse now, and them moving to the AAC from the MVC doesn't hurt either for their recruiting.

C'mon Prohm and company, seal the deal on this one!!


Someone said they're full but that can also change at a moments notice.

I refuse to get excited about this. I REPEAT, I refuse to get excited about this. I refuse. Okay, kinda kidding, but after Juiston, McNeill, etc., I just want to be surprised vs. bummed.
I'm tepidly excited about this.

Really like his athletic ability and motor. These are the kinds of forwards that Wichita St has been living off of for the last several years. Kind of reminds me of an Ejim type forward.

I like them too. 6'7" and athletic usually means a lot of versatility. Even if they can't shoot/dribble, you know you can make them into a good defender/rebounder. Guys like that can get their garbage buckets and fast break points without being super skilled with the basketball or have long range.

He's not done a good job for quite some time. Really, I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner. They had a top guard recently decommit too.

I wonder if they will promote an assistant for a year? It would be really hard to find a coach right now because of the timing.

Why? Wasn't Prohm hired in June? Maybe not one they ideally would dream about, but they can find one.

That Wesson kid looks like a big boy. OSU doesn't seem to have what we are mainly aiming for. Stewart situation seems interesting though.
