Next year is going to be fun!

His minutes per game are huge because right now we only have Ambrose-Hylton (19 min) and Hudson (15 min) returning in the post and neither guy played those kind of minutes. Of course, they weren't limited because of foul trouble so a rebounding/scoring wing would be a good addition if this team is going to play more small ball

Say bye to Hudson

Say bye to Hudson

I assumed he would follow Lanier to Rice if there is an opening there

Traore's list of offers out of high school is impressive:

Auburn, LSU, Arkansas, Gonzaga, Houston, Kansas, Louisville, Memphis, Michigan, Oklahoma State, Oregon, TCU, Tennessee, Texas, Texas Tech, UC Santa Barbara, UCLA, USC, Utah

[GSean]

Good hands and offensive. Checks out on defense and doesn't rebound, questions about how hard he is willing to work. UCSB fans didn't want to lose him but not super sad he is going.

If Traore is as effective for SMU as Pohto was for Wichita State he will be a huge upgrade from losing Njie & Foster but we still need to replace the production T. Smith and Hudson provided
