Tony Johnson Basketball Recruit

I love that Dawkins believes in bringing in bigs to make the lane impossible for our opponents. We showed in the tournament that if you have multiple shot blockers in the middle you can play with the blue bloods.
 
Moses Bol just signed his LOI with us along with Avery Digs, how much space do we have left?
The video on Bol is actually encouraging. From what I say on tape he looks athletic and can run, a definite shooter block. It’s seems like the coaches at Colby have done a good job with him being he only started playing basketball a 3 years ago.

Just from an athletic and size standpoint I feel good about the team but these guys will have no chemistry together.

How does someone related to Manute and Bol only start playing 3 years ago?
 
I feel like I didn’t know about Bol committing but could have missed during my terror over Dawkins leaving and now the White issue. Was this a secret?
We had like 6 or 7 spots (BJ, Tacko, Chance, Dawkins, Terrell, Rokas, Griffen?, Myles). Lots of room left.

3 spots remaining if Terrell leaves which I really hope he doesn’t.

If Allen does indeed depart, UCF has three scholarships remaining. It's likely Dawkins looks to the transfer market for those remaining spots, whether it's underclassmen that may have to sit out or grad transfers with immediate eligibility.
