Guess we got the replacement for Marvin Clark after he graduates

Looking forward to what he can bring next year.  Hopefully he helps make practices competitive this season

Nice - good to get one on the board for a kid who I think will benefit from a sit out year and be able to contribute.

Maybe he develops into the type of player I hoped Freudenberg could be if he stuck around.

David Caraher on St. John’s, “Honestly it was the guys and the culture. The tradition at St John’s is second to none. The coaches and guys made me feel at home and their plan for the program is exciting. Something I thought I needed to be part of.”  #sjubb

I like the addition. Seems like a good player, and had good numbers albeit at a lower level D-1. The thing that concerns me is he is from NC and not one local school was in on him. Is there a reason for that? I would think a guy who put up 16 and 7 as a freshman would be a hot commodity.

Solid pickup for the '19-'20 season. Now let's get another big for next season.

Welcome. He'll pay dividends immediately in practice stretching the floor and showing our guys real consequences for late closeouts and cheating too far. Nothing corrects bad habits like getting 4 treys drilled on you in a row.

Looks good, hopefully he can use the time to adjust to Big East style of play

His dad is a strength and conditioning coach. When I learned that, I was all in.

He committed to Butler before his Junior year.

That gave plenty of time for others to make a run at him.  Rumor at butler was that he was always looking for the next best thing.  In 3 years, he has switched high school twice, decommitted and now transferred from a college.  I am hopeful but this is something to be aware of

This took me by surprise. I know David and he was always quietly coming up with big plays. Athletically will be his biggest struggle but he immediately has more IQ than Amar and better sense of where to be and when.
