After the math, actually before it, in fact before the season started I would have bet on it...... if I were a betting man that is. I don't want to say I'm happy about it, per se, but since it WILL make the program, better, stronger, faster..............I can't say that I'm sad about it either.

Still looking at PG/SGs. Long list of suiters.
I could see some value in added PG depth/additional athleticism if they still have a ride to play with for this year.
Not sure I see an immediate need for a pure shooting guard/perimeter shooter with Verplancken, Brown, Wonders and Harvey all competing for minutes at the 2, unless it's someone they feel really good about that is potentially better than those guys.

Not sure if he is added as a WO or PWO?
Under Mullins, I don't feel there is a difference. This kid will get to be on the bench, help the team in practices and hopefully get in some games since we're up big. : )

There had been some buzz about Sayles as a potential Saluki recruit a while back. Appears his stock went down for whatever reasons.

Grades. He's good enough for D1 basketball and was the 2nd best player on that Notre Dame team behind Lesmond when I watched their games. Hopefully there's an opportunity in the future.
This is interesting. A 5’8 Senior guard:
