Open scholarships for 2017?

[bowlgoal]

How many are still open and are we close with anyone right now?

 

[PaKnight]

One spot available, assuming no other turnover.

 

[RU23]

Differing opinions on our chances with Jose Alvarado, top 150 PG from Christ the King in Queens. He's probably our top target.

 

[RUChoppin]

Sr - None
RS Jr - Freeman, Johnson
Jr - Sa, Williams
RS So - Diallo, Doorson
So - Sanders, Laurent
Fr - Bullock, Thiam, Omoruyi
2017 - Baker

That leaves one open scholarship.

There was some discussion at the end of last year whether Freeman would come back for his fifth year or not, and whether Sanders would leave early for the NBA with a high enough draft grade following this season.

While there is only one scholarship, there is always a possibility of Sanders leaving for NBA or someone else transferring as well.

In today's college game, you need to recruit far more players than open schollies available.

Transfers, academics, early entries...roster attrition is at epidemic levels.

I suspect we will see commits from at least 2 more players, despite the fact we have only 1 open scholarship
