Maybe a bunch is going on we don’t know about, but with not hearing about other players at all this feels like a must have. Very good news he didn’t commit to UVA

I'm good with NU working stealthily to recruit the portal. I just think we know more about Fiegen because of his Wilmette roots.

However, here's one that got outreached -
He looks like a grad transfer, given he's already logged 4 years of ball - so that aligns with NU policy. He also was at Vandy for his first 2 years, so he's likely accustomed to the academic-first environment. He got serious run last year - playing 73%Min and started at the 3 for the Gauchos, kp 132 and middle o' the pack in the Big West.

While he wasn't a primary option, he did get shots up. Here's his Big West Splits:
82% FT (73/89, 12th in conf), 54.2% 2FG (45/83, 23rd in conf), 36.6% 3FG (26/70, 20th in conf). He did crash the OReb - 5.4%, 23rd in conf.

For his career, he's competed against 34 Tier A+B Opponents: splits :84.5% (49/58) FT, 34% (18/53) 2FG, 37.3% (38/102) 3FG

He's a Gaucho!
