Best thing to ever happen on Easter! Welcome Mr. Wrightsil
He is committed! (Sorry...)
I would think he's a solid piece for a year. I realize the step-up in competition is enormous but I'm sure Shaka has done his homework.
Welcome Zach!
He looks like he will be a great addition to the program.
Now let's get Warren Washington and things will look pretty solid.
Welcome aboard Zach. We love that your your bringing the experience of winning a National Championship to MU.
Welcome, Zach! Great addition to the MUBB Family.
Keeping my expectations low.

He is risen....to a higher division
Sweet! Nice addition. Eat some glass dude.
One year of eligibility? Do we have 1 scholarship left if Justin leaves?

Yes and yes.
Congrats to Zach and the staff! Looking forward to watching Zach play here. Will definitely be a step up but Zach appears to have the necessary athleticism to play and contribute at this level.
I think his shooting stats are troubling and not sure his scoring will remotely translate to D1, but am hoping DPOY and his rebounding numbers given his build and athleticism will. That alone would make for a nice pick up.
Welcome, Zach! Hoping for Robert Byrd's level of rebounding skills and a mentoring role on a young team.
Maybe he can attack the offensive glass a bit? What kind of defender are we projecting? Can he guard smalls and bigs?

Now let's get Warren Washington and things will look pretty solid.
Is he our primary target if Justin leaves? We absolutely need a big.

...but you must be sleeping. C'mon man, we're paying you the big bucks to keep Big East updates up to date. Greg in the portal and now Wrightsil commits.
Have a nice Easter with your family which is way more important than MU basketball.

I'd love a Robert Byrd type impact.
Totally trusting Shaka that Zach will be an impact player for us.
In regards to Justin, did anyone else get the impression that if he does return to school it will be somewhere other than Marquette? Or did I just read into the statement he released too much?

He's going pro and we don't want kids that are going to play in the NBA

And it's also related to filling scholarships, which can be discussed in a thread about a new addition.
But thanks for the info, thread police/clown.

No, he already played 4 years.

From the stats and video seems like Zach is physical and likes to stick his nose in there for rebounds which will help.

Against BE rebounders, I would think his hands would work out better, or else Marquette should stock up on these:

Consult Yadier Molina on what he uses on his chest protector.
Next Jae Crowder, Jimmy Butler, DJO, Dwight Buycks or Sam Worthen?

Yes.
Let's throw in Lloyd Walton also.
I see some physical resemblance to Ed Morrow in Wrightsil.
I hope he's more left me Crowder.

Morrow had 30+ pounds on Wrightsil.
