10 mpg, 4 ppg, 2 reb pg this season.   To his credit, has an offer from tcu.  Left new mexico as a frosh 2 months into his career there in 2015.  Saw that he had a hoya offer before going to new mexico, laregly because an assistant there had a father who was the kid's trainer for 2 years. 

Can't teach 7'2".

Nikola Scekic received offers from Greg McDermott at Creighton and Jamie Dixon at TCU last month.  If he's good enough for them, his size can probably help us for 2 seasons.  Grab him with Kante and Yetna, a sit out guard if need be and I think we upgraded our C/PF spots by a lot for next year.

That is a recipe for two straight NITs. 3-star big men are fine if you don't need them for 2-3 years. We do. We need a grad transfer with proven ability. There is no reason to take all three of those guys you listed.

Yeah well who do you think is out there that can do it?  I think people's expectations are higher than the talent pool currently. 

This is what happens when you wait until April to fill multiple holes.

Two 6'8+ active guys is what we need.

This is what happens when there is only 1 Matt.

Unless certain options don't materialize this kid is unlikely to be an option.
