great size. according to kenpom played about half the minutes at point, but his asst/to ratio was upside down. shooting #s rather pedestrian, imo
but eli's #s didn't look great at ecu, either

I feel it needs to be asked, 6’4...to the top of his head or to the top of the do? If it is the do, then he’s 5’7 at best.

The kid himself did retweet it. Maybe just using our name but i doubt that's the case.

In a scenario where maybe only 1 high D1 reached out (let’s say Creighton); it’s certainly plausible the kid would say his final 3 is Cuse, Oregon, Creighton instead of Monmouth, Siena and Creighton

If Zagoria says that Creighton “big boyed “ us, I am going to freak out.

Interesting.

I'm guessing that there is a lot of stuff happening behind the scenes that we aren't area of, players that the coaches are reaching out to that we aren't privvy to, etc.

Agreed, although I don't think Estrada is a good fit.

I'm sure the staff is looking into lots of options, with more to come. I'd be very surprised if there are not additions to the roster.
 
Interested in why this kid was so lightly recruited out of HS? 6'4" 200 pound guard playing at one of the top prep schools in the country and he scored over 2,000 points in his HS career and his only D1 offers were St. Peter's, East Carolina, Robert Morris and Wagner? What gives?

Edit: I see that his Rivals recruiting page has him at 6'2" 175 lbs in HS, but still, that's not terrible.
 
Helluva FT shooter, at least.

Why was this kid not recruited more heavily out of HS, I wonder?

I really don't see how he'd ever play much here...Assuming that list is legit, he'd be better off at Creighton behind Zegarowski for a year.

That's my entire point, irrespective of this particular prospect. something doesn't add up here, I'm guessing we are actively involved. But there's no doubt in my mind that the coaches are looking at lots of options that our names we haven't discussed on this form yet, to fill some of the open scholarships.
