pretty good handle for a kid that size. How many years of eligibility left?

Two I believe. He spent one year at FAMU and this season at a JUCO. I'm not certain if that means 2 or 3 years left.

Esleeck with another "It's a great day to be a Seahawk" tweet last night. Wonder if that means another commitment today/tomorrow?

I have a....hunch that you're on to something here. Perhaps it may address a "Big" concern for next year's squad.


RE: Recruit Updates - Seahawkhoops - 05-01-2017 07:58 AM

Interesting nugget he puts out there. Can't wait for the news :)


RE: Recruit Updates - surfsalot - 05-01-2017 09:59 AM

I heard we had a 7' transfer from Charlotte on campus recently. Possibly this guy. http://verbalcommits.com/players/lukas-bergang

Interesting, i think it would be hard to hide a 7 footer :)

Didn't realize both 7 footers are transferring. Here is the other. http://verbalcommits.com/players/benas-griciunas


RE: Recruit Updates - HampsteadHawk - 05-01-2017 10:15 AM

I think it would more than likely be Benas Griciunas


RE: Recruit Updates - bricksnivy - 05-01-2017 10:38 AM

Benas Griciunas
Griciunas came to Charlotte under Alan Major as a transfer from Auburn, where he played sparingly as a Freshman. Benas stayed on when Price came on board and has been an enigma on the court. Benas has the skills, however lack of strength and consistent effort to command consistent playing time.

Benas is on course to graduate (which is tremendous and a credit to him taking care of his obligations in the classroom) and will be returning overseas to start a pro career in basketball.

Lukas Bergäng
There’s not much to say here, Lukas was a part of the first class for Price and the staff was looking for bodies. They took a chance on Lukas and he never developed. No idea at this time what Lukas’ future plans are.


RE: Recruit Updates - 82hawk - 05-01-2017 11:44 AM

If we get a true big man at center, it would certainly signal a departure from the Keatts era. And although it would be nice to get a transfer, we need help in the post NOW.


RE: Recruit Updates - bricksnivy - 05-01-2017 09:07 PM

I don't we ever offered, but FYI:

Jeff Goodman ✔ @GoodmanESPN
Duke just beat out Eastern Kentucky for unsigned senior point guard Jordan Goldwire. Seriously.

Incredible. Just hope that the Duke staff didn't mislead him. You've gotta be in the seven to eight man rotation before K will ever even let you sniff the court. I hope he does well.

Don't know much about his recruitment, but in Goodman's mentions, someone said Goldwire specifically said they told him he'd be there to come in and run the second unit. Like you said, their second unit is essentially invisible in February and March, but perhaps he's looking for a Duke diploma.

Reminds me of Stillman White. Probably could have been a really good college player at the Mid Major level but elected to go to Carolina to mostly sit on the bench. EKSU fans are probably fired up about it though.

@EvanDaniels: Mount St. Mary's transfer Mawdo Sallah committed to UNC-Wilmington last night, per a source. Averaged 6.1 PPG and 5.3 RPG last year.

That helps with post depth for next year. His averages certainly aren't overly impressive, but he's a 6-8 big man and was a 3 star by ESPN.


RE: Recruit Updates - bricksnivy - 05-02-2017 10:41 AM

Side note, Jamion Christian has lost three starters to transfer this year. Of all of the rumored/fantasy names, he's the guy I probably was most intrigued by. I wonder what is going on at The Mount.


RE: Recruit Updates - Coast2Coast - 05-02-2017 10:46 AM

Doesn't he have to sit out a year?

No, he graduated this year, so he is available immediately and has two years of eligibility remaining.


RE: Recruit Updates - bricksnivy - 05-02-2017 11:13 AM

Isaac Kante will make his college choice today between Georgia, K-State & SJU. People are assuming UGa.
