Was a JuCo All American this past season as a freshman and it appears as though we are showing interest in him again.

Great stats across the board and great size for a 2 guard. Believe Odessa is a pretty good juco program so this guy sounds more than intriguing.

Fordham, is that an old tweet from our original offer? Don’t see it in his timeline currently? Or he deleted it?

Old.  See the date I started this thread back in 2016.

He committed to NM ST in 2016 and enrolled mid season.  Coach left for New Mexico he got a release to transfer.  Went JUCO last year and is eligible to transfer this year with 3 years of eligibility since he redshirted that one year at NM St.

Is this Ponds insurance? We seem to have an abundance of guards this year unless Trimble is transferring or Ponds is leaving.

Many people are always trying to read so much into recruiting.

Sometimes it is simply trying to position yourself to get good players regardless of the position.

I haven’t seen anything tying us to him. Did someone just hear something?

Yes, just saw those stats. Sign me up for him and Burke. Interesting for a former 4 star recruit and juco aa I don’t see anything about his recruitment. Matt and him following each other is a good sign though.

Was scheduled to go to Western Kentucky, but that fell through. I am not sure why.  I would be surprised if SJU does not land him.
