Winning programs do what it takes to put together the best possible roster. “Making space” on a roster is a part of the deal.
I LOVE this Babatunde's upside. Nice young man too. He's actually on my list of kids to hit up this week for the South Florida site.
His HS, McEachern is flat out LOADED. Their campus and their athletic facilities are sweet too. It used to be a D-III college campus.

Rutgers offered him when he was in 9th grade.
Despite that, does Pikiell and staff still have interest in him?

We don't have anyone committed in the '19 class. Montez, Harper, and Carter are class of '18.
Absolutely. Coach Brandin Knight and Coach Pikiell are in regular contact with Stretch. The kid is a great student and if basketball doesn't work out for him I think he told me he wants to be a doctor.
Stretch has a 7-foot-3 wingspan is my memory serves me correctly. He has been up to Rutgers a couple times over the summer because the director of his AAU program is from Jersey. So when he would come up to visit his family sometimes he would bring Stretch and they will go over to Rutgers as well.
Makes a lot of sense we were in so early. Attends the same school as Okoro and Cooper who we have offered also who play for the AOT eybl program which is ran by Omar Cooper who is one of Brandin Knight’s best friends.
Looks like it was done for you if you read Russ’ contributions. He calls him Stretch. Others likely do, too.
