Ugh, I’ve had enough of him already. Upside of Purdue winning today is hopefully put him to bed.

Noah Williamson Bucknel 7 footer. I've not seen him play, but his numbers are impressive.

I like his highlight tape but I haven’t dug in since we don’t have the Enright endorsers endorsing him yet.

This is not a portal player but could be a player we might reach out to.  Dez Briscoe from Crispus Attucks committed Iowa back in Dec.   Could have a role as a player off the bench.  4-years of varsity basketball and was a double digit scorer and double digit rebounder for Attucks.

Word is he'll announce his decommitment from Iowa on Monday.  Attucks played in a 3A semistate game earlier today and defeated Princeton 62-55.  Briscoe unofficially with 13 points, 14 rebounds, 9 blocks.  Attucks vs. New Palestine tonight for the right to advance to the state finals next weekend.

According to both the Iowa article you referenced and 247 he’d had a WVU offer under DeVries. So certainly seems likely.

Good find. What does he project to play at the next level? 6'8" is too probably too small for the 5 at IU. Is he quick enough and have the outside game for a modern 4?

Listed as a 3* right? Is that stale or does he offer something beyond his ranking.

Could be filling out pretty much a whole roster so you'll need guys like this -- looks like a guy who can contribute down the road if not immediately.

I’ll need to look at some games from this year. Watched a couple of his games as a Soph after he took an unofficial to Bloomington. At that time he was pretty much a traits guy. He was long. He could really run and change direction. He was super quick off his feet, maybe his best trait at that point. He had a little jump hook but otherwise there wasn’t much to his offense other than finishing. Played with pretty good effort for a kid.

passing on he and Singleton might be the exact type of mistakes we've made for 25 yrs... 

Singleton especially... he's very skilled.

I wouldn’t be surprised if more players stay than the fanbase thinks. The players are making good money here and there was a lot of talent that underachieved. DDV could be thinking he could work with many of the players.

The possibilities are Cupps, Newton, Goode, Mgbako, Tucker, Rice, Carlyle, Reneau.

Most likely? Goode will try to get eligible.

After that? Tucker, Rice, Newton are the only ones I could see as possiblities. I could also easily see solely Goode.

Would love to see B Tucker return.

Tony Adragna brought up on the crimson cast podcast he doesn’t see how Goode gets another year. Galan said it’s bc of fear of being sued by the NCAA. Will be interesting to see what happens.
