Big East roster moves

[auror]

Not seeing it anywhere “official” but this guy says Jayden Epps is out

I don't believe the New York Herald is a thing, at least for the last few decades, so likely a fake account.

[Hey Adrien!]

Holtmann is quietly putting together a solid roster of mostly transfers and two HS recruits.

Class of 24: 225 Riddle (6'6 210), 296 Konneh (6'7 180)

24 transfers:
Isaiah Rivera 6’5 210 GR from UIC, 15.4p, 4.2r, 1.8a, 41.6 3P%, 77 FT%
Jacob Meyer 6’2 195 SO from Coastal Carolina, 15.7p, 5.1r, 2.6a, 40 3P%
Troy D’Amico 6’7 212 SR from Southern Illinois, 9.3p, 3.7r, 2.6a, 36.4 3P% in 32.3 mpg
CJ Gunn 6’5 175 JR from Indiana, 13 mpg
NJ Benson 6’8 225 JR from Southern Illinois, 8.6p, 7.9r, 1.6b, 63 FG%
Conor Enright 6’1 180 JR from Drake, 7p, 3r, 3a, 1s, 44 3P%
David Thomas 6’2 200 SO from Mercer 11p, 2.3, 40 3P%

Lots of shooters.

Providence got a commitment from Jabri Abdur Rahim a 6’8 Guard out of Georgia. Dont know much about his game but notice for 6’8 he averaged 3.5 rebounds and rechecks notes .3 assists per game to go with 12.2 on 35% from 3.

I prefer them having him to the BJ Freeman rumor

​

 

[Brochacho]

I like what Providence is doing. I think there won’t be much different between teams 2-9 this year especially if Creighton loses Kalkbrenner and Ashworth so they have a chance to be at the top of the BE standings.

The return of Ticket Gaines.

They have no size, which in our league is a PROBLEM

 

[MJKI]

Have to think CFJ will be considering a transfer, especially if they get Freeman. He’s probably the 4th guard off the bench at that point

We were on him pretty heavily in recruiting way back in 2019. Looks like he's still only plays half his team's minutes.

Allergic to passing too it seems

 

[superjohn]

Providence is very competitive with their NIL.

 

[MJKI]

I’m not overly impressed with this PC haul. They’re shaping up to be a slightly glorified Butler team. Decent mid-sized guards, some spacing, but hurting significantly in actual impact talent outside of Hopkins (who is coming off a major injury). Pierre and Joseph are probably a bottom 3 starting guard in the big east, and Barron was “first team freshman” but the freshman big east class was no bueno, Castle non-withstanding. Without Freeman, they’re probably going to be picked 8th in the league

He’s quietly putting together a team that will probably finish last or next to last.

He needs warm bodies just to get through next year - that’s what he’s getting.

Yeah I agree. Christ is a project and hes penciled into being their starting 5. The kid Bonke has potential but is another year away imo. If they get that Oswin kid to reclass he is prob an instant impact type. But i still think they are relying a lot on the guys who quite frankly stunk this past year and without Carter the defense will get a lot worse

If DHop was not coming off a major injury Id understand the hype but he may not be himself until January or so

Na. Christ is a good pick up. He had a good year and ended the year strong scoring 14 pts and getting 8 rebounds in 37 minutes against Seton Hall. Oswin already reclassed and will play next year. Kim English is putting together a good team

Hes fine but hes not a plug in play lock for the 15-8 Oduro gave them. And Oswin has not yet reclassed

[Hey Adrien!]

HUGE pickup for Georgetown.

Fairly sure this is a fake insider that tweets things after they happen and quotes "sources" to build a track record and then tweets a fake thing or two to go viral.

Thats a bad article. All of PC is still talking about hoping hes reclassing. They even have a stupid hash tag #thereclass hoping he will. But most PC media believes the Christ recruitment was an admittance that Oswin will be in 2025. t.

That list looks better on paper than the low-major crew from Bucknell, Northeastern and UC Irvine that Matta brought in for Butler this season, and Butler had a decent season despite Matta looking like he is not quite completely cryogenically unfrozen yet.

He did that last year, too. I don’t expect that it’ll work any better this time around.
