Vincent14 Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 McDonald's All-American transferring from West Virginia. Probably could've gone pro last year. Wants to cut to down to 3 to 5 by the end of the week and make a decision this weekend. Has heard from IU along with Clemson, Florida State, Memphis, Kentucky, Miami, NC State, Pitt, Tennessee, Utah, and Western Kentucky. https://247sports.com/Article/Oscar-Tshiebwe-transfer-schools-timeline-Clemson-Florida-State-Indiana-Kentucky-Memphis-Miami-NC-State-Pittsburgh-Tennessee-Utah-Western-Kentucky-158670151/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question would be what soured him on Huggins and WVU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that we'll get an answer quick and he won't drag us along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Man wouldn’t it be great if we had a guy like that fall out of the sky for us. Looking for a breakthrough. As for the NBA so many people are totally lost with what the league is looking for right now. Look at how inconsequential Jahil Okafor from Duke is now. In 1985 he’d probably be coveted.

Don't think anyone is being required to sit out a year. Main question is probably whether or not he could get enrolled somewhere before the spring semester starts. Also, kid looks like a force down low. I don't know if we really have any kind of legitimate shot, but he would certainly solve any front court depth issues.

NYHoosier312 Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 Older bro went to WVU and follows them very closely. Said OT regressed a lot this year. He sent me the tweet from Fran Fraschilla. This is someone I would be leery about bringing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always worry about a kid quitting during the season but if the coaches are fine its their jobs on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
