Gonna be interesting to see how Ingelsby uses these players. He is notorious for not having a deep bench but right now, it looks like the team is 9 deep.

200 minutes per game, could it look like this? One big question is can Houser play 20+ minutes, he played 15 last year and was in foul trouble often and is a defensive liability.

Tyler Houser 25
John Camden 25
Niels Lane 30
Cavan Reilly 25
Isaiah Pasha 25
Tahron Allen 25
Wes Middleton 25
Erik Timko 10
Kobe Jerome 10

3 remaining. As a true freshman, he shot 42.9% from 3 and had a 54/33 assist-turnover ratio. Some really good numbers to build off of.

Haven't seen this posted anywhere, but Zion Bethea, he of the about 2 minutes of playing time, committed to Pepperdine on May 14th. :wink: Hope he can stay healthy.

Like I've been saying, and what a lot are hoping for, the last scholarship spot is being targeted on a forward.

Albright Odobe 6'9 220
Sophomore
CCBC Catonsville
3.5 gpa
Stats: 12.7 points, 11.0 rebounds & 1.1 blocks

Looks to be a defensive/rebound first forward. Definitely will do work in the paint.

Yep, he is one of some names to watch out for. We are currently within a recruiting dead period until May 24th, so expect more traction in the next couple of weeks.

Phila Inquirer reported that Keita signed with Temple which has reportedly upped their NIL efforts.
