I don't believe we have, at least with any acquisition that has been announced. Based on what I have seen, Mitchell and Luke do not play the same position.

Dang. He must be getting paid a huge amount.

What do you suspect VCU is paying Nowell? More or less than what the Antelopes are paying Luke?

It is insane how VCU has trouble with the center position. Finally get a big with potential and he leaves. Sheesh

With whom?????

Again want to remind people that it is April and there are thousands of players in the portal. Before this year nobody had ever committed this early. We will find someone.

Don't let Mitchell know. He might opt for other pastures. I doubt he came here to play the 5.

Perfect opportunity to get a wide-body who can score in the post. Surprised we haven't heard about any interests from VCU for some decent centers. A kid in the portal for over a week, week and a half most probably is not returning

Portal giveth and taketh away.

D1 has almost 200 uncommitted 6"10 or better players in the portal and another 45 from D2 available. We will find the right fit

Some good ones too. I was just checking.

Mr X · Tuesday at 5:25 PM

Youssouf Singare out of UConn
Papa Kante out of Pitt

Both are ranked right about where Luke is.

Wonder what the odds on announcements today matching that sentiment. I like our chances on the giveth 8-)

. The taketh part won't surprise me either. Luke follows more faith based accounts than any player in a while so I am certain a suitor like GCU was also leverage tha aspect as well

Totally agree, I was so impressed with how fast Luke was picking up the subtleties of playing a five. I truly felt if he stayed he could be drafted in three more years IF he is willing to put the work in in the off season. Very sad to see him leave and hoping he may have a change of heart. But excited about how the team is coming together so GO RAMS.
