Not Anthony Thompson but this will be a nice recruiting win, people gotta give DeVries time.

He’s a fun player with big upside.   “Sneaky” athletic.  lol.  The Troy Williams comp is probably close.  His shooting numbers aren’t great but I think a lot of that is because he takes a lot of tough shots.  Not gonna turn a lot of heads nationally, but could be a really good player with development.  
 

We’ve got 4 and possibly 5 starters to replace for next years team so the roster make up will be intriguing to follow. Sisley is on track to occupy one of those spots it seems.

Year 3 will be when I will have expectations. Anything over .500 is found money.  I trust DD to identify program pieces this cycle that along with Trent will establish a culture we will be happy with. Taylor is a multi-year big, we should return everyone with eligibility. Hopefully there's a robust pg market in the portal.

Would be nice to think a year at a basketball prep school would be as much of a positive in his development as Montverde was for Sisley.

Hopefully they have a high end strength/conditioning program along with their skill development. Kid needs to get a lot stronger.

He just wants to  wait until the football team has the game in hand.

Unsurprisingly Trilly GIFd it today.

This is reportedly the site to watch for his announcement.  And on the assumption he is announcing for us, you can probably watch a number of his games this season at the same link.

Congrats to the young man and welcome.

Side note: Kid’s upper body looks nothing like that.
