1 big down and just 1 more needed

[smusic 00]

Wouldn't count on Kapita being an NCAA qualifier. There are others.

Long shot or we know something?

Just gathering various Intel and it sounds like he will be a long way from being an NCAA qualifier

I almost think another big is nice to have? We have done just fine with 3 posts rotating this season if you think Semi will play more as a 4. If we get another, I'd like to bring in someone with soft hands we can develop like Ben.

If Semi is going to play as a 3, nobody believes Ben E is coming back because then we would be up to 7 in the backcourt. I think they think of Semi as a stretch 4.

That's a shame. I thought he was just waiting on one piece. Would have been very nice addition.

out of curiosity is Wilson any good? no stars on rivals (probably doesn't mean anything)...

<Wilson is a knockdown shooter who played many important minutes for the Australian teams. He has a unique release on his jumpshot but is still a deadly threat from outside. Wilson is a shooting guard and has worked to improve his ability as a point guard. He is now more than capable at both positions. He is an impressive athlete and is a pleasure to watch, as he reads the game so well.>

Worst case scenario: each year under LB the kid plays an increasingly valuable role. He's long, so if he commits to playing D he becomes a valuable guy off the bench who can fill it up and spell starters at 1&2

Length, versatility and committment both D and team play seem to be the gold standard for an LB RECRUIT.
It would serm he's got most of that.

No way can we waste a scholly to carry someone else's bags anymore. We've already been there and how did THAT work out for us?

Semi will play at the 4 for us at times but he will also play the 3 (it was as a slashing shooting 3 that he got recruited to duke). If you have him at the 3 Ben at the 4 and Sterling at the 2 with Sake at the 1 you are extremely long and athletic defensively at those 4 spots. Remember LB's dream would be 5 guys at 6'8 that are all athletic enough to switch on all screens.

I have seen Semi listed variously as 6'8 (SMU roster site), 6'7, or 6'6. I don't know which is most accurate. Sounds like he was a 3 at Duke.

It's testy, maybe time to act.

If his actions are sufficient does he pass the test? Or is there more to it?
