"Nevada transfer Warren Washington tells me that he has committed to Arizona State."

-Rothstein

He cancelled his visits with Marquette, Notre Dame, and Texas A&M.

You can't cancel something that wasn't scheduled

[Newsdreams]

What's a typical Wojo guy?  Was Sacar Anim a typical Wojo guy?  Andrew Rowsey?  Matt Heldt?  Joey Hauser?  Theo John?  Markus Howard?

A non traditional

[PGsHeroes32]

Its semantics, but hes right.

A "plan" to show up somwhere at some random point in time isnt a scheduled visit.

No visit has been cancelled, Washington has just unforunately chosen he will not schedule a visit and take said visit.

Ouch

More green wieners

With Washington gone I still think a scoring guard is the biggest need.

Prosper, Joplin, Itejere, Ighodaro, Gold, Wrightsil is a lot of fire power up front.

I assume that last spot is Justin's until he says it's not though.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

As I said earlier, I think Wrightsil is our only addition.  Last spot will be Lewis or open.

Then sign 3 HS players in the fall, anticipating at least one transfer next year.

They are going to add someone.  Whether it's Justin or someone else there is no reason not to add a Transfer of some kind with 1 year left to provide another body.

You don't see enough size, versatility and scoring from the 6 guards on the roster or committed?   I will take a wide body banger, if possible.

Guards win in March and they have 1 guy of the 6 that can go get a bucket, that's Kam..and even he doesn't really create his own shot.  That leaves a hopeful Sean Jones as the 1 guy on the roster that can create for themselves.

I tend to agree. Even though Morsell's offensive inconsistency was maddening at times -- maddening even for Shaka, who benched him several times -- when he was on he was able to get himself a good look whenever he wanted. Lewis also could do that sometimes.

Maybe if O-Max continues to develop we'll be able to say the same about him next season. Maybe Kam? Maybe Wrightsil?

But right now, if Lewis leaves, we'll have zero players who have shown the ability to do that at a Big East level unless Shaka brings in a transfer.

I actually am comfortable with the size on the roster right now.

Gold 6'11"
Oso 6'9"
Itejere 6'9"
OMax 6'8"
Joplin 6'7" or 6'8"
Wrightsil 6'7"

That's more depth up front than we had last year as far as size and bodies go. Morsell could get his own shot as you mentioned.

Look at the Final 4 teams:

UNC has Love and Davis
Duke: Roach, Keel, Moore
Kansas: Braun, Martin, Agbaji
Villanova: Gillespie

Baylor last year: Mitchell and Butler

To win in March you need guards that can get their own baskets. We have plenty that can create for others at the moment.

Great we have room for Tyrese now

[GoldenEagles03]

Great we have room for Tyrese now

He would be a great fit. Only problem is Shaka probably won't recruit over Mitchell, Ellis, Ross. Can't say I disagree with him either. He's building a brand in a basketball world where everybody is looking for the next best opportunity. That brand is loyalty and family.

He's not coming here anyway, so it's a pointless discussion

Good players want to play for a winning brand.

Heck, I'm still not convinced everyone is staying.  Should know more as the end of semester gets closer.

[GoldenEagles03]

Saw it suggested on Twitter a handful of times that people are speculating Tyrese Hunter and Patrick Baldwin Jr. may try to team up.

[TallTitan34]

Has anyone seen any Courtney Ramey updates?

Actual credible CBB people speculating?  Or just random people saying it cause they have AAU history?

I saw it first from a scout for prepshoopsMI. Just speculation, but other people have ran with it.

Good point, rocky.

Villanova seems to be the early favorite
