Davion Mitchell - transfer from Auburn
Kam McGusty - transfer from Oklahoma
Femi Olujobi - North Carolina A&T
Omer Yurtseven - NC State (maybe the best transfer available)
Marcus Carr - Pitt

I am sure more to be added. Femi O a grad big to pay attention to.

I'm somewhat familiar with Olujobi from NC A&T. A strong kid who can also shoot it a bit from outside. I recall watching him a bit when they played Georgetown earlier in the season.

I thought Yurtseven would try his hand at the NBA or be interested in schools more established than we are at the moment. I'm not too fond with this constant sit-out transfer game we're playing, but I'd make a player like him an exception.

Thanks, Paultz. Yurtseven would be wonderful, but understand from talk shows here, he may be looking to go pro at some level. The guy from NC AT&T is a little scary. Good year at that level, but could barely get on the court in two years at Oakland. Could be he has developed a lot since.

Femi would be a good addition and he could finally come home to play. He would immediately cancel out the Owens departure.
 
If it helps, Femi has played well against high level competition.

1)Against Clemson
-20pts, 4 rebounds

2) Against Georgetown
-18pts, 8 rebounds

3) Against Virginia Tech
-21pts, 4 rebounds

*Just a sample size.

Maybe was slow to develop but could easily get 20 minutes here. He and Keita could bang inside while Marv hoists bombs from the outside. If Shamorie Ponds returns the guard position will be very deep.

You're right, very impressive. Must have used the redshirt year between Oakland and NC AT&T to really develop his game. Looks good.

Also if Femi was their leading scorer and he put up solid numbers especially against high competition when defenses could focus on him I'm even more on board thinking another year and defenses not focusing on him with our multiple options and him being very valuable piece

Best scenario this spring:

1) add 1 quality grad transfer preferably a big (Trey Porter/Olujobi)

2) add 1 quality sit transfer.(McGusty/Yurtseven)

3) add 1 new incoming quality freshman (maybe one of the UCONN kids Emmitt Matthews/Kisunas)

Insert your own name.if you prefer.

Add them to the current roster and incoming players (assume Ponds returns) and they are ready to roll next year and set up for good 2019 class as well.

Not "preferably a big".

Here's the deal......either we get at least one immediately eligible big or next season is over before it starts.

As a replacement for Owens we would lose 3 inches in height (6'8 vs 6'11) but gain 83 lbs in weight (233 vs 150).
