Love this pickup. Seemed like a suprisingly overlooked diamond in the rough from the city and a great magnet school (both academically and athletically) to boot. It's nice to see we might be putting a little pipeline together from WY; wonder if it translates over to their stud in next year's class.
Also, it'll be interesting to see if we're now done on Avery or will pass on Moore now that the guard spot has been filled. If the staff believes in Avery as the BPA or if Moore is open to transferring here, I'd rather pass up both Frederick and Bruninga. They could be solid 4s, but Bruninga and maybe Frederick might not the rim protectors we think of as a big. More stretch 4s, which would be nice but I don't think is super necessary for next year's team.
If Moore wants to transfer here, I'd bet the house we'd do whatever we had to do to make sure there was a spot for him. When you're a mid major, you don't say no to a National top 50, former Illinois Mr Basketball.
