Senior stats, per On3:  26 pts,  8.8 reb,  4.3 ast. His team is 22-2. Not sure how good the competition is, but there are a few other division 1 players on his team and it's a prep school out of Phoenix, so I assume they play somewhat of a national schedule. 

 

He's listed at 6'7" 205 on their roster. Wiry and athletic. With Rhymes and Frager on the wing, there will be no lack of positional size and athleticism there. They can both shoot it, too. Only question is how soon they'll be ready to contribute. Rhymes will be a 20 year old freshman. 

 

I wonder about the level of competition as well, but he passes the eyeball test for me anyway. If he is the real deal he should be a solid rotation player as at 20 years old he will be the equivalent of a sophomore in college.

Just based on rumor mill, word-of-mouth kind of thing, I understand it might be more likely that Frager starts than Janowski. We'll probably be looking for a portal point if we have NIL money to go after one.

 

I know I will be in the minority here, but I'm not as high on Janowski as most seem to be. IMO, Frager has the higher ceiling and is likely to contribute sooner.

It appears we will need to find at least one more serviceable big and a point guard for next year.

Yep, a transfer lead guard and transfer post depth should be the biggest priorities.

My list:

Bigtime PG, spend money

long athletic wing who can shoot

Young 4-5 guy 

If Jano is not good enough to be a solid back up combo guard we will need to go find one of those as well. Hopefully Jano can fill that role and Frager and/or QR can be real contributors off the bench on the wing.
