Shaq Carter Commits!!!!
- Thread starter RU fanatic
- Start date
I'm confused, the McClung decommit was brutal, how did we recover so quickly?
This was really the most critical front court target needed....a perfect weekend folks...!!

This is such a huge commitment on so many fronts. 19-20 is going to be an extremely special year on the banks, one we'll remember for a very long time imo

Great news. Hopefully next time he steps on campus the football is away or on bye.

I'm about to get a new car, but I'm behind the curve: What else has been great about the weekend other than not losing a football game?
when one door #1 becomes empty and closes, maybe door # 2 holds something that fits better if it's opened [cheers]
Offers from Purdue, Xavier, Wichita State, Auburn, Iowa State, Washington State.....pretty impressive. Preseason 2018 JuCo All-American.
It's a highlight reel, but there are some things here you have to like. Will be a solid contributor in the 2018-2019 season to step in for the loss of Freeman and Doorson as the young big men keep developing. My favorite clip is at 1:02 with the 5-foot hook shot
Carter was always on record as being a fall signee wherever he decided to go....I still think we can take 4 or even 5 fall signees, but it would ultimately require spots to open after the season.
Now we can target the guard of our choice knowing the front court is in place...the decommitment ultimately was the key and while I would have liked McClung, front court was the preference with Mathis and Harper in place.

This is simply amazing. Welcome Shaq to RU.
Street & Smith’s Annual Basketball yearbook says..”6’9” Shaq Carter, perhaps the best JC big man in the country”.
Times, they are a-changing!

For next year...still only have three bugs
Shaq as a junior
Doucoure and Johnson as Soph
Need a frosh in this class (love to get Washington)
And Dixon in 2019
Very good and important commit. This staff understands how to build a program.
Doorson will be back next year, not sure why people keep missing this lol. Unless he can't stay healthy, I think he starts this year and will be back for his last year of eligibility.
Doorson is also back.
Shaq Carter has some nice moves in the paint. Nice touch and finishes with both hands.
In the tapes I saw, and must realize they are tapes, he looks like an old school power forward.
Doesn't ooze athleticism, but looks like he has a nose for the ball.

And Omoruyi is a 4 folks. Our roster will look like this in 2018-19 (barring other moves):
1 - Sanders (I realize it’s unlikely he’ll stay for his senior season), Mensah
2 - Baker, Kiss, Mathis
3 - Thiam, Bullock, Harper
4 - Carter, Omoruyi
5 - Doucoure, Doorson, Johnson
I would go so far as to say that, if Sanders stays, this could be an NCAA tournament team.
