Also has offers from Fresno State along with Charleston Southern, Canisius, Radford, and Northern Alabama. Would be a great addition to our front court from an offensive perspective. This staff is great at identifying JUCO and international talent… Gorecki is both. We’ll have to monitor this moving forward.

He would be a good pick up if big Jeff or Mukeba were to transfer. The Roos have 3 bigs with another big coming next season. The focus should be on guards that can handle the ball, show quickness in getting to lane and at least 6’2 or taller. The team will lose 3 guards to graduation next year!

This is a fair point. We’ve essentially had one true PG (KC) the last two years and he’s gone after this season. I’d imagine we’ll land at least one guard in the portal, so we might have to wait on those developments until after the season.

2 juco PGs already signed.... unnamed coach says the 4 guys signed will be our best 4 guys.....

section28, you beat me to the response in reference to the 2 juco PGs. Will Diallo be able to play next year if he chooses, since he is senior and not a grad student, due to allowance made for the COVID year?

I think BaBa came here with 3 years... Hard to find a way to watch GobGob but the Indian Hills kid is tearing it up... it looks like we have gotten pretty complex on offense with a ton of wrinkles.. keeps guys thinking instead of playing... or no... depending on which team you watch
