If DaVeon Thomas and Jizzle James can handle the point we could just possibly make a good impression in the B12 this upcoming season.

[London 'Cat]

Great news. If he and Reynolds will be eligible in 2023-24, the team has a chance to be above average in the BigXII.

He's a big time addition, though the roster composition leaves me scratching my head a little. I wonder if Wes is betting at least one of the two of Reynolds and Aziz don't get a waiver.

I like the additions in the paint, both offensively & defensively. Guard play is a pretty big unknown…..relying on first year players to play point - hopefully they contribute immediately. If CJ is healthy & returns to form, things may look up for next year.

UC hasn’t gotten a ton of national attention for many recruits but seems like they sure have in the portal season

Just now seeing this commitment to UC... This is Huge! It's been a few years since we've had a decent Front Court! Bandagog, Reynolds, and Vik will be a great rotation next year!

ODY has come on too. We have fouls to give like the old days - If you come underneath be prepared.

Yes, I did not forget about ODY... He can definitely backup at the 4 position next year, instead of the 5.. And we have more depth this coming year which is a plus going into the Big 12... Wes has done a really nice job of landing players who I think will make a difference on the court in 2023!

You know I am starting to believe that CWM has really understood Bearcat history as he said on his first press conference. Now let us see it on the court.

5+ mins of highlights https://youtu.be/L-lR6oFICPw

Also, he hails from Dakar, Senegal. Same as Ibrahima Thomas and Cheikh Mbodj.

I just hope he's as good as his highlights.
