First piece to the puzzle!! Proven scorer and local kid - love it!

Joe Bamisile commits to VCU a 804 product former 4 star recruit. Played High school at Saint Christophers School in Richmond, then he transferred to Montverde Academy in Flordia, before returning home to Monacan High School.
In 2020-2021…He played at VA Tech after not getting a lot of playing time transferred
2021-2022 played at George Washington starting in 29 out of 31 games played. Averaged 16.3 PPG 5.0 RPG
2022-2023 Played at Oklahoma where he had a smaller role. He is a 6'4 Guard, very athletic, great vision, elite scorer.

Looks like the Rams are trying to build a team full of local guys.
Tomorrow Jason Nelson Played at John Marshall (U of R last year) PG, Roosevelt Wheeler 6'10 John Marshall Teammates with J. Nelson (Louisville last year), Efton Reid played at Steward School 6'11 (Lsu then Gonzaga last year) They all played AAU together for Team Loaded and went undefeated winning a national championship.

I guess he doesn't have to sit out since he is moving home?

 

[VCU Heel]

I think this greatly increases our chances to get Reid and Wheeler.

I assume he can play only one year. Correct?

He is eligible for two more.

 

[VCU Heel]

He is eligible for two more.

Two years if he’s immediately eligible. Probably only one if he has to sit out next season

Well we know he can score, we saw what he did at GW. Hopefully has learned to not ballhog

When he played there wasn't Joseph the coach? He and Bishop took all the shots if I remember. Bamisile had some big games and monster slams that year. I think he made an all-A10 team.

People talked to me like I was crazy when I expected this kind of recruiting out of the gate with Merc Rhoades and co.

Rumor is is this is just the first of many.

Did Bam also play on Team Loaded with Nelson, Wheeler and Reid?

 

[longlivekingshaka]

If he can play this upcoming season year, this is fantastic. But until someone can add some confirmation or clarification to that, I'm cooling my jets on how excited to be.
