From Chicago mount Carmel. Would be interesting to see if this kid and Morrow could help reopen that shut door

He is listed as 6'0"  A smallish guard though he is 190 lbs.

Package deal with Joe Cremo?

I do find it a bit peculiar that of all the grad transfer guards, Wojo seems to be narrowing his focus to Cremo, Chartuney, and now Nicholas. I have seen several that have released lists of interests/contact and MU isn't on any of them. You would think that they would get their name out there for damn near every single one of them, since it is such a glaring need. He's cutting himself pretty thin only focusing on a couple guys if you ask me.

What that says to me is one of two things...either A. he has reason to believe he will land one of the one's he is in on, or...for whatever reason, he doesn't think it's the priority that everyone knows it is.

I'd doubt it. Cremo said that he and Nichols didn't discuss transferring together

So you think it's possible Wojo doesn't know a PG is a key need for next year's team?  Despite the all-out effort to get Grimes?

Guru,  Wojo is in on 3 of the top 4 grad transfer guards currently available. The only one he is not in on is Ehab Amin.

Who else do you think he should be going after?

Wojo has been pretty successful getting "his choice" in grad transfer guards the last few years landing Carlino and Katin.  Add that to the fact that MU really has a PERFECT situation for a PG; starting position available, likely tournament team, that he may feel that he can concentrate on what he feels are the best and chance are he will land one.  It could also mean "hopefully" that there has been mutual interest confirmed for the guys he is chasing.  Adding to his sales pitch "Our list is short, we are only looking at 2 of you and one will get the position" might help as well.
I don't think there is any way Wojo thinks PG isn't an issue.

And let's be honest, Amin would just create too much confusion around here. Guessing Wojo is avoiding him to benefit the greater Scoop community.

Carlino fell in Wojo's lap. Not so sure that was recruiting coup on his part.

Ha.  Would be funny when announcer says that was great pass from Amin to Anim.  People will think the announcer is pronouncing Sacar's name wrong.

I'm just saying, why not at least reach out to several others as well, even if your interest isn't as high as for some others?? At least then you have several potential options, instead of 3...what if all 3 go someplace else?? The bottom line is they absolutely NEED a grad transfer PG..so if you do lose the three you are in on, then what??

Who is the third?  Cremo, Chartoney, and...?  I assume Nichols isn't in your top 4 since I don't see him listed anywhere on your FA tracket.

I didn't realize Nichols was a grad transfer when I posted the first edition. He graduated in three years so he slipped past my radar. He'll be there on the next edition

Gotcha.  I was surprised to see him not mentioned anywhere - so that makes more sense now.

Unfortunately, there don't seem to be a plethora of grad transfer point guards out there this year who may be able to come in and start for a team that has tournament aspirations.
If there are others out there who the coaching staff is missing, who are they? Seems silly for them to spend time recruiting kids they don't believe would fill the need.

Finally took a look on synergy.

80th percentile in points per possession allowed last season. Dude is short but seems to be a solid defender. I'd take his distribution and defensive ability for us next season. Albany is a very solid low major program.
