One rating service calls him #45 JUCO player in the nation. I don’t think we have ever recruited someone ranked so high.

What I find interesting about these last two recruiting cycles is that Menzies is hitting the JUCO portal hard after being known for having an eye for international talent. He had a solid strategy of developing guys over 3-4 years (see: Pascal Siakim), but the problem today is that it’s hard to retain a player for that long. Instead of looking for the hidden gems overseas, he’s cashing in at the JUCO level… they’re a little more polished and able to contribute immediately while still having high ceilings. I like it. |

This is real question. The way he brought in all the international talent year 1 made it seem like that was what we were going to see. Anyone know why coach shifted strategies? |

Welcome Josh Ijeh 6’10 post from Casper Juco where he averaged 8.7 points and rebounds while playing 26 minutes a game. Long athletic post who has 102 career blocks. The Roos have increased their depth by adding another post player. Recruiting the Juco players has been the focus the last 2 years. I hope it pays off and the Roos win the Summit League!
