Is there a chance we can land him? I personally don’t see why we can’t….

Gabe Wiznitzer is a name to watch. Found this from a few weeks ago:

Hargrave kid, he and Boals just started following each other on IG. Could be nothing, could be something.

ECU's Tristan Newton is going to UConn. I didn't think we were a realistic option for him.

We would GREATLY use another big. Some of the guys on the team and all coaches follow him on Instagram if that means anything. This dude's a bull: 6'11 240

Yea, looks like Gabe is now following Dwight, Aj, and both Ohio U/Bobcats IG. I’d say that’s a good sign.

It's a great sign. I'm trying not to get too excited since it isn't confirmed but holy crap we could really use this kid.

According to social media, UAB, Davidson, Ohio, Creighton, Iona, Penn, Brown and Cornell have all shown interest.

He's similar in size to Olumide, 6'6 200lbs. Freshman this year, played in 35 games started in 33. Started the season hot but seemed to cool off as the year went on. 39% from the field, 33% from three, 69% from the free throw line. There's some promise here. Also fielded offers from Central Mich, Hampton, Arkansas, South Carolina, UNC Greensboro, Murray State, Towson, and Texas A&M Corpus Christi.

What happened to his last part of the season? Those stats in final 7 games are quite disturbing.

No idea. He didn't start one game for some reason and only played 7 minutes. But quite a flame out at the end of the year.

Might want consider trying your hand at “googling”.

Lee Martin was his coach at Hargrave. He had a bunch of high major offers out of high school.

Let's be honest, he was a longshot anyway.

Yeah, did not think he would come here. Figured I'd update the status of players we offered. I'm feeling that we will get Wiznitzer from the portal though.

He has too.

Can't swing and miss in the portal.

Nice video of Gabe... He looks like a post player that, actually plays in the post. This brings up lots of fun questions like: Can we put him at center and put Dwight at PF? Can we pair him with AJ Clayton and have one of the tallest front courts in the MAC? Fun to think about.

Go Bobcats!

PS. The next guy I hope we get is the PG from Ohio State... Didn't we just offer his cousin or something?

Wiznitzer reminds me of Rich Stanfel.
