He is on an official visit this weekend, and I think he will commit to us soon.

I wish his 3-point % was better. This probably speaks to the fact that we have 5 scholarships (counting the 2 in 2017) unfilled for next year without a commit yet.

He is on an official visit this weekend, and I think he will commit to us soon.

wonder if this has any relation to how well Gill is recovering (or not recovering)

 

[Mavric]

I would guess it has more to do with us having extra scholarships available.

Tweet deleted, Robin giving out faux news?

It was a pronunciation but he must have changed his mind.

He re-tweeted it and I replaced it above.

Well, he can shoot. That is a nice pickup as that is a skill that is becoming more and more rare. In the highlights he never uses his right hand except for one dribble after a cross over or that behind the back dribble. Its a nice move, but it won't work well in the Power 5 if he can't go right at all. Has a nice Euro, but even finishes left hand on right side. That will get blocked by the bigger more talented players in America. I hope he adjusts quickly.

Tall and a lefty shooter is always good from a wing.
