Not sure if this was posted. Can't imagine this kid wouldn't jump at the chance to come to UC. Needs to get stronger...no problem. We can do that.

I think he would be a nice addition. I feel with our bigs graduating and not much being said about landing a big to this point I feel we may be going with a 4 guard line up next year. He game fits that scenario. Now if we end up with a grad transfer that can play the 5 and score that would be nice as well.

We don't need a 5.

I also treat Diarra like a member of the 2018 class. And with a year spent with the team as a bonus.

I don't think we are in as bad of shape there as everyone else does. Would still like to add depth if possible though. So if Hardnett fits that, I'll gladly take him.

I don't think we are in bad shape either. That said what I really like about this years team is we are well rounded offensively. Makes us tough to defend. You think you shut down our inside game and Kyle and Gary step out and knock down a 3. Our FT attempts are up so we are getting to the bucket a bit better and we pressure the defense by running the ball up the floor instead of walking it up. They have to defend us for the whole 30 second shot clock which plays to our depth.

as our roster stands now we won't have that option with Kyle and Gary gone of our bigs having to be guarded out to the 3 point line.

Easy choice.

Can never have too many wing guys like this.

So if Evans stays (he should), we'd have 1 scholarship for the spring?

My opinion is if this guy signs and out only other offers are to guards and combo guards, we will be playing 4 out 1 in offense next year.
