I'm not a fan of banking scholarships, but obviously it's important to be mindful of team chemistry and not just add grad transfers or jucos for sake of adding.
I have not followed the grad transfer market much since we haven't had much interest and I don't watch much college basketball (other than every Husky game) since conference realignment sapped my interest for the most part.
1) Are there any players we should be looking at?
2) Are there any we are confirmed to be considering?
The Vital signing was so terrific because it added a secondary handler, which seemed like a necessity in case of injury to our two primary ballhandlers, and a combo guard who can score (obviously won't be primary or secondary option early in career). Killed two birds with one stone so to speak.
I still think we need a 4 that can bang and score a little bit in the post. I like Facey off the bench and think he's probably more comfortable in that role and I love Enoch but not sure he can play 4 alongside Brimah in a college game where many teams go small/quick. I feel Diarra is a project that can hopefully bring much needed energy and not sure how much we will get from Durham in year 1 but love his long term upside obviously.
Really don't see any other needs, the staff did such a great job with this class. But I think a grad transfer at the 4 starting or playing big minutes to come in and give some instant offense like Speights on Golden State would be a great thing.
