hhcmatt Posted July 25, 2023 Author Report Posted July 25, 2023 Considering the current glut of guys we potentially have graduating in 2024-25 I wonder if we make this pickup if WB is still on the roster as that would have just left us with one scholarship for 2024-25. I suspect we still take Diop but it's certainly becomes a debate first. Handy Johnson 1 Quote
