Pretty late in the game to start courting 2017 guys out of nowhere like this, no?

rebounds well from some of the stats.  Well rated player too.   Had/has offers from Pitt, Georgia, uri, New Mexico amongst others.  It seems we could do much worse than this at this stage of the game.  I'm surprised he's still on the board.

Assuming we get a grad transfer who is a big  Yetna may be a good redshirt candidate

Hey, if he's available it's never too late.  He was first team all league, and has been called a double-double machine.  Looks like he averaged a double-double actually, and played against top prep teams, not garbage.   Getting a freshman rebounder like that would be tremendous for us, regardless of what juncture.

True.  I'd assume because he said it there was one.   Corey Evans tweeted it and Yetna retweeted.   The math would work because we need players.

He looks pretty good to me. Seems really active. He gets inside, but he can also face the basket with the ball in his hands. This is the kind of player we need to bring in and coach into a star.

Yetna reminds me of Eric King.

Academics and eligibility were a concern. Has things cleared up and schools moving in. I haven't seen him.

Hopefully we gain some traction here.  A 2017 freshman signee who's a real good rebounder would be a nice way to balance our classes a bit as well.

I like him. Out works everyone in this video. Lefty worth +2.

Not sure how good the overall competition is in that video.

That sad, Yetna looked extremely active down low and that is exactly what this team needs. Not the biggest guy in the world but big enough at 6'8.  We need two of him.
