phrases "full package" and "contribute right away" to describe
Olaniyi, who comes here after an "unbelievable four-year career"
in high school. That's a lot of praise. Love it. He also likened
McKenzie's vision to Woodhouse and says he can shoot it too.
Long is a combo guard who can really shoot. And they didn't
think they could get Ochefu but were glad to. Even at 6-8/230,
he's "very athletic, can shoot from the perimeter, and will be a
big presence for us inside."

on Nyama going pro or the incumbents on the men's side either.

I watched the live feed as well. Was hoping to win a prize, but
didn't, lol... I really like the incoming freshman. This team is
going to be powerful for a few years to come. I also like the
girls BB team as well. Some pretty good talent are coming in
with some nice size... Some good days ahead for the mens and
womens BB team...

PG out of Broward College for this coming season. Has anyone
besides Nyama said their leaving? If not, I don't believe there
are any schollys open!! And, if there were, why would the
Seawolves look for a PG, since they appear to have a couple of
good ones coming in, not to mention the continued development of
Almonacy? Does anybody have a clue?

What the? Another point guard??
Here's the tweet:

He averaged 18.7 ppg and 4.5 apg as a sophomore at Broward,
along with two steals per. I like the sound of it. I'll bet it's
his job to lose in the fall.
Almonacy can't possibly be back.

Just read his write up on the Web site could be a starter next
season for sure.

Well folks, I think we got our new PG with Cornish. Just
watching his videos, he looks like a guy who could make a big
impact here. Also, he had a WAY more productive JuCO career than
somebody like Iroegbu (who only averaged 6PPG in JuCo). 18 PPG
with 30+ in the championship game is impressive. I think he will
be a great fit for us and really ought to be our PG Day 1. This
move really looks great on paper.
What I'd like to see is:
C- Ochefu/Petras/Campbell
PF- Saintel/Sturdivant
SF- Yeboah/Garcia
SG- Olaniyi/Long
PG- Cornish/Long/McKenzie
Might redshirt McKenzie with the depth that we have in the
backcourt. I would have loved to have some additional
front-court depth.

Good looking lineup with 7 months to go before our first game.

You left off Sekunda, Iroegbu and Almonacy; I have to think the
latter is looking elsewhere now. The writing's on the wall. I
could see Long taking a redshirt year. Coach mentioned how he
needs to get stronger, and with McKenzie having had a postgrad
year, I'd be a little surprised if they tagged him with it.
Very interested to see these newcomers and Garcia. SIX new
faces.

Interesting to see what happens to Campbell... I wouldn't be
surprised if he transfers, with the likes of Almonacy. I think
Sekunda stays in his final year at SB, but will only be used
marginally..

Per Verbal Commits, Alonzo Campbell is leaving the program.

I hope he finds someplace that is a good fit for him for the
next three years. He can help somebody out. I wish he got a
little more run this year but this move isn't shocking.
