Andrew Stojakovic (Stanford) commits to California.  Final three included UNC and Kentucky.

BJ Freeman (Milwaukee) commits to Arizona.  21.1 pts, 6.6 reb, 4.1 ast

Dakota Leffew (Mt St Mary’s) commits to Georgia,  IU had contacted early.

Nate Santos (Dayton) enters the portal.  11.7 points, 6.3 reb.  Shot 43% from three.  6’7” forward.

 

Santos either greatly improved his shot or this was an outlier year because his 1st 2 years from 3 were......not good. That's being nice about it

In this current period of everyone looking for older kids, Quaintance is gonna a very interesting case to follow. He may be really physically gifted, but that kid is crazy young. He’ll player his entire freshman year as a 17 year old. When he hits a campus this June he’ll still be 16. I’m not clear on what expectations should be for him. 

ASU, huh? Will be real interested to see how this goes.

I love this video. He looks like a 45yo ex-NBA dude lighting up some unsuspecting kids at the Y.

May now has Danny Wolf and Vlad Goldin on his roster.  Two bigs....along with Will Tschetter.  All three really slow.  Forget the question about how Woodson keeping two bigs on the floor together -- it's a hell of a lot easier keeping Reneau and Ware or Reneau and Ballo on the court together.  

I'm just going to say it:  Danny Wolf is not a big ten starting caliber player.  Against teams with pulse last -- Ivy League teams of any value -- he was bad.  Against Gonzaga, Kansas, San Diego State, and Auburn:  he was 11 of 39 from the field with 27 rebounds.  Averaged 8.3 points and 6.8 rebounds in about 30 minutes/game.  I simply can't see him being on the court alongside Goldin.  Wolf is the backup 5 IMO without a real possibility of being a 4 in any lineup.

Julius Marble, 6’8” power forward from Texas A&M enters the portal.  9 pts and 4 reb/game in 21 mpg.  Played three seasons at Michigan state.

Elijah Saunders, 6’8” San Diego State stretch 4.  6.2 pts, 3.6 ast in 20 mpg.  42/32/96 shooter

Another element of NIL impact: if a program is looking for a new HC, say 11 or 12 months from now, how many really good guys are more readily available than you think? Supposedly Tommy Lloyd gave serious thought to the Washington job because Zona’s NIL program is subpar. You gotta think Holloway will certainly be available.

Lol

George Washington III (Michigan) entered the portal, withdrew, and now has entered again

I’ll also add just for farts and gigs that Ballo had 13 points and 21 boards in the FAU game this year (that Zona lost, in fairness) and Goldin fouled out in 23 minutes. 

I’m not overly worried about their frontcourt.

Seton Hall (6,000 undergrads) and Providence College (4,800 undergrads) are in the wrong conference.

Small enrollment, not a great endowment (= not a wealthy alumni base), lots of other college sports teams within driving distance, and in a fairly big-time conference. In this environment, I’d bet on DePaul making a Final Four before either of them.

After the coming season Holloway will be on a bunch of P5 opening short lists.

Vlad did put up 23 points in 19 minutes against Illinois......and fouled out.

Somto Cyril (6'10" Kentucky decommit) commits to Georgia.

Calipari was able to make up for him not committing to Arkansas instead by getting a commitment today from James Aidoo (Tennessee), one of the best bigs still in the portal.

Northern Illinois forward Xavier Amos commits to Wisconsin.  Amos averaged 13.8 pts and 5.8 rebounds at NIU.  Okay commitment, but what Wisconsin has not been bringing in the same caliber of transfers that left.
