Matt Bullock is listed as a sophomore, not a redshirt freshman.

Geo Baker's mother captained the MIT basketball team.

Issa Thiam's father played for the 1972 Senegalese national team, which made the Olympics (but went 0-7 in group play).

Peter Kiss did not start playing basketball seriously until sophomore year of high school.

Height/weight changes from last season:
Corey Sanders is listed as five pounds lighter.
Mike Williams is two pounds lighter.

Shaq Doorson is five pounds heavier.
DeShawn Freeman is two pounds heavier.
Eugene Omoruyi is one inch taller and four pounds heavier.
Candido Sa is eight pounds heavier.
Issa Thiam is one inch taller. (no change to his weight, which doesn't mesh with what Pike has said, so take this all with a grain of salt perhaps. Or they over-inflated his weight last season.)

Nothing interesting about Bullock being listed as a sophomore because that is what he is. Played in two games, practiced and was in uniform for all games and wasn’t injured.
 
But he redshirted right?
He played in games and wasn’t hurt so he is not eligible for a redshirt. If and when he transfers someday I’m sure there will some appeal to get his year back because he played about 90 seconds but by rule last year was not a redshirt year.
