Caedin Hamilton Commits

[Jay Bee]

Great!  Welcome!

If he reclassifies, does he play tomorrow?
How about Italy?

You can practice (pre-foreign tour rules) pre-certification, but an incoming frosh must have his academic eligibility qualification status certified to play on the tour. Due to the timing of all this, would think he's not formally certified and therefore ineligible to compete overseas.

[MuggsyB]

Definitely not just you. I'd rather someone say nothing than put a comment like that out there.

Now I'm concerned a bit.

Caedin Hamilton is doomed!  😱😱😱

[BCHoopster]

Bottom line, he gives MU 5 more fouls at the center position against Big East centers.  Or he redshirts since he will be so far behind the rest of the team.  To me he is a good project.

Not Oso-related.
Maybe another big man we're all really excited about going into this season.  Hope it's nothing major.

[The Lens]

So either Ben or Al is hurt.  Or Ben turned pro.  Or Al turned LeDarryll.

I believe we'll know A LOT more after the open practice.

If Ben turned pro it had to have happened in the last couple days because he was in the ring video that mubb posted earlier this week. I'm guessing Ben is hurt???

Sorry, meant to quote the lens

[GoldenEagles03]

Now I'm concerned a bit.

Anybody going to the open practice today that could fill us in on who's possibly injured or missing?

It's so obnoxious, if you know something say something. No need to be cryptic just for the sake of being cryptic and then say "Told you so" when the info comes out.

Agreed. Strange way to go about the situation.

I'd guess everything is fine for this season. Maybe looking to get some experience for a big heading into next season.

Or don't say anything at all and just wait for whatever news there may be to come out.

Reading the tea leaves, I'm guessing this means Gold was hurt recently and the staff is waiting for a full diagnosis.

How's that for baseless speculation!

Yeah stuff like this makes me hate Scoop sometimes. Just a way of saying "I know something you don't know"

It also lends itself to rumors, which doesn't do anyone any good, players or fans.

[Goose]

Who's all going to practice tonight?

[StillAWarrior]

Marquette's release confirms the redshirt, so apparently he's not coming in as an emergency replacement for anyone this season.

Redshirts can always be pulled.

Sorry to be coy, I just didn't want to step on toes of the guy who shared it with me.
The word is Ben got banged up and while it should be minor, Hamilton was brought on sooner just in case.

That's all.

[Viper]

...or, Gonzaga, Kansas and others were showing some interest. So, sign Hamilton now, develop for a year within the program.

Ben seemed to be happy about the commitment via the instagram comments, so the "going euro" likely isn't a thing. Maybe it is an injury. I am guessing the urgency of the signing had a lot more to do about the new players sniffing around and trying to swoop in than anything related to the '23 roster. But maybe more to do with the '24 roster and Oso's prospects. But I have no sources--I'm just a man on the internet with some opinions I've created.

That said, it's gonna be nice though to have a defensive presence like Caedin to have the guys practice against.

Same club coach as Dexter Akanno
