Seems like we actually have some big man depth for once.

Overall...not bad. More talent than the other Fran coached teams here? I think more physical, more athletic and more experienced. Not sure if that translates to more scoring and more W's. We shall see.

Does “signed” mean absolutely zippo?

If he actually signed with La Salle...he's gonna have to sit out or get a special waiver. I think.

I would think this is La Salle releasing him rather than he wanted to leave. Just a day or two ago he was announced and some tweets between him and Safret seemed they were excited about getting to work.
Timing is very odd. He is a JUCO so I don’t know if he did t graduate as expected etc… who knows.
Regardless La Salle is in a very difficult spot now. It is very late and I am not sure if there is any decent talent left out there over a certain height.
Temple just settled for Mohamed Keita who we had interest in last year. He did nothing a Tulsa last year.

We don't know what could have happened so let's not pass judgment. |

I agree it is very odd after he signed this falls apart so fast.

Unforeseen circumstances? Maybe credits not transferring/issues with admissions? Caleb Love and Michigan last year come to mind

Really odd timing. Just yesterday Safet Kastrat was tweeting about him. Odd that even an insider didn’t know something was up.

Maybe recruiting via zoom calls on Memorial Day Weekend isn't a rock solid method. Who woulda thought?

If he was going to have issues here legitimate or otherwise, it's better that he leave now.
