Here is another Ohio transfer portal player that we should pursue

Glad you've decided to waive your citizenship requirement for this guy!

SLB was the biggest Shulga supporter on the board.

Looks like that we found our PG (looking at the offers that Stephan Swenson has).

Didn't Charleston just hire Chris Mack? If so, I wouldn't rule them out just yet.

They did, both Charleston and Santa Barbara have good basketball programs. Hopefully Calhoun can seal the deal, seems like a solid PG.

Looks like Swenson and Gatereste are both from Belgium. Be interesting if they decide to commit to the same team.

We’re on Jalen Blackmon’s list as well but that’s probably a long shot. He’s got interest from Kansas, Kentucky (and probably Arkansas now) as well as a few others.

If all 3 come here, it would be a home run transfer portal deal.

I highly doubt Blackmon would come here. If he has interest from all those other schools he has some good money on the table

Yep. It would be an absolute stunner if he did. I only listed him because of his other two teammates that were looking at.

I am surprised about us pursuing Blackmon, but we have the whole teammates being on a winning team in our favor.

Did a cursory scan of Stetson’s assistants and didn’t see any obvious historical overlaps with Calhoun but that doesn’t really mean anything…

Calhoun was a notable Fairmont State coach
Stenson assistant coach Finney went to Fairmont State for college.
They would probably know each other despite the different time periods.

Good catch. Or is Haslam recruiting these guys as two are from Belgium

I saw that but Finney was there in 1985. They may know each other. Who knows.

The big man averaged close to 2 blocks per game

I believe all 3 Stetson players are entering their final year.

Blackmon is an absolute stud. I watched him drop 40 in their conference championship game. It’s a long shot to get him but he would be awesome.

I like both of the other guys too. Probably a better chance of getting them.
