He's a 6'10" JUCO transfer out of Monroe College with 2 years to
play with the Seawolves. He seems to be in the vein of Otchere,
but somewhat more offensively skilled. This one caught me by
surprise, as I thought for sure we'd target a PG, of which there
were several quality offers out.

I had posted about Gueye back in the fall. His handle is
shockingly tight for someone his size. I generally fall in the
camp that our 6' 9" players should be playing with their backs
to the basket, but he's interesting. Also think his length
(+Otchere, Olaniyi, Moor, etc.) will be a nightmare for opposing
teams.
High upside addition. I like it.

I like it. Probably means Christie gets cut though. Nothing
against him personally, but I can't exactly say I'm sad about
that development. Still need a PG though.

I, too, thought PG will be a priority. But Gueye looks like a
good talent. As others mentioned, we’ve got some length now...
athletic too.
Per VC we still have one more roster spot left for 2019.. is
that correct? Perhaps that spot for a PG.

Well, Foreman for Cornish is a wash. Hopefully, only 1 - for
Corry Long transfer - and yes, hope it's a PG. If Akwasi
leaves, I would expect that to be filled with a corollary grad
transfer inbound (again, PG please).

I believe Gueye is taking Long's scholarship. If Akwasi stays,
the roster should be set for the 19-20 season.

Where does that leave Tyler Stephenson Moore, then? Doubt they’d
carry around four bigs on the roster. Christie is likely getting
the boot.

That begs the question - can they just release scholly guys like
that? Aren't these schollys for the duration of their academic
career assuming that they stay academically eligible?

i think theyre 1 year contracts in all sports
with that said- most have an implicit understanding that it's a
mutual commitment
