Awful quiet around here , obviously not much info is slipping out ..... is there gonna be a commitment soon ???
The staff has one main target. If that falls through it is very possible they just sit on the scholarship
Hopefully this recruit adds size at the wing and athleticism.
I'm thinking its a player with a recently posted 8+ minute highlight film. I hope so, because that particular player embodies just about everything the current roster doesn't have and desperately needs. Hard to realistically imagine a more perfect complimentary piece.
Nope I believe that is a possible back up plan though. This is a grad transfer
He has been mentioned a couple times but is not on any list posted.
only hint I am giving
I'll play along.
I think I've figured it out. If I'm right, one is a better shooter whereas Gregg is more of a physical specimen. Both have good size and are very athletic and would provide a lot of exactly what SIU needs for the upcoming season. Hard to go wrong with either one. Hope SIU lands one of these two.
--Insert something witty here--

Looks like he played well in the recent JUCO tournament and would have four years to play. Not an explosive type (more similar to Banks than Jones) but it looks like he can play. Has a bunch of midmajor offers in recent weeks. Another Wisconsin kid. It appears he knows some of the guys on the team.

Ebube and Domask seem to have been following him awhile ago

Still think we get a 6-6 to 6-7 athletic type wing. Hints on here everywhere who we are targeting. Hopefully it happens soon. 🙏
Hearing good news comes to those who wait😃
Give us a hint... is it a Freshman or an upper class?
Also can someone clarify... Lets say we sign a freshman... can we still add a grad transfer or no? I am so confused with the COIVD rules.
Not trying to be coy just want the player or SIU to announce first. It is not a freshman. Can’t say anymore but feel it will come out soon.
@mdogs1 Yeah but now this breaks the day after we offer Zachery... which makes me think it could be one of 2 people.

Not unless someone else leaves.
So a COVID senior does not get to bring a scholarship with them, the school must have one open? That is such an odd dynamic. If you had 5 seniors who all decided to not come back can you add 5 scholarships for the upcoming season though? I can't wrap my head around it all.
