The competition will be tougher for somebody like Aidoo. We should get him in for a visit. You never can tell.

It will be the second time around recruiting him for VU.
Okpara is visiting UT. Sigh.

Ike McBride one of the highest rated remaining guard out there. Not sure where he is visiting or who contacted him. Radio silence.

Ike McBride has withdrawn from the portal.

Makes you wonder if he was waiting on an offer to return to VU that didn't happen?

He was highly rated in this portal class and would have had lots of other offers.

Interesting - Oral Roberts was not a good team, but McBride had a good season - he shot 40% from three and 89% from the line, and almost hit 50% of his shots inside the arc. He was a marathon man as well, leading the nation in % of minutes played, playing all 40 minutes (or 45 in OT games) in 19 of the 31 games that they played.

One would figure that he would get an offer for much more NIL money elsewhere.

He had to have gotten some great offers. You would think.

Also: scratch the part about Aidoo to Baylor. He's going to visit Arky now.

Jalen Sullinger to Furman

Fun player to watch. Ohio State obviously didn't pony up for him.
