I believe all three will ink this week, correct?

 

[Com'rGordon]

Great news, was a little nervous about Hawkins not signing this week. LETS GO

 

[navery12]

Excited for all these guys to sign their NLIs so the staff can finally talk about them

Are they looking at any others for 2021? Don't they have to see if Bouknight leaves (which is the consensus), I can't remember

 

[Waquoit]

I still can't get over this. Signing day and we have our class virtually wrapped up. And it's a great class!

 

[ucawn]

This class is so great and to think it came together in a couple weeks this summer. Wow

Would think so. Pretty curious how they go about filling his spot (assuming he leaves). Seems like they’ll wait until the spring to identify a player. Also curious to see what type of player they would go after here. Either way, they’re in a great spot, love this class so far! We’ve got some good ones.

I think Hurley will probably wait to see if any of the seniors come back for a 5th year. Although the NCAA will let teams carry their scholarships without counting against the 13, I don't think Hurley is going to want 14 or 15 scholarship guys on the roster.

I'll hold my breath until SJ and RD sign, although SJ is likely the only real question mark.

What ?

 

[MDHuskFan]

What ?

In one of the other 10000 threads SJ coach said he was going to sign this week

agreed. the rotation is hard enough to sort out as it is, imagine trying to do so with 14 players??

but for continuities sake a highschool reclass or a transfer makes the most sense imo.

we are losing at least 3 guys in 2022 (cole, adams, martin). if a senior came back that would mean we have to replace at least 4. plus AJ is thought to be a two year player (maybe) and idk if akok will stick around for his redshirt senior year (doubtful). that could mean we lose 6 players in one year.

Very talented player!! Very excited!! He will do great things here and beyond!!

 

[huskiesNhoos]

any chance a mod can jump in and correct his name on the title?

 

[UCLJ0211]

Really impressed that Depaul has a top 10 class. Great for parity in the BE.

 

[YearoftheHusky]

I hope Jordan Hawkins signs too.

You can relax

J. Hawkes?

 

[Kitaman]

Kid is silky smooth. Forget the dunks, his jumper RIPs the nets in a nostalgic way.

Hurley is doin it!

 

[gtcam]

This is the one kid I wanted bad since I saw him 1 1/2 years ago
He will blow your minds - he's that good

One and done?

Will he be able to beat out Andrew Hurley for PT tho?

If his shooting is 40% plus his freshman year--yes. He doesn't have many skills other than 3s and very good perimeter defense, but as we know that is a recipe for a role in the NBA at this point. My guess is he's a 2 and done guy though.

He's stated that his plan is 2 and done

I really doubt he starts as a freshman.

Take it easy. I like the kid too, but he's no Buzz Lightyear.

 

[businesslawyer]

Take it easy.

Excellent idea for an Eagles song. Useless exoneration for the Boneyard.
