Off topic here but I saw Naas Cunningham signed with Jacksonville State after an almost invisible year at UNLV. Anyone know what happened to this guy? I remember when he was one of the top freshman/sophomores in hs. Had size and skill. Did he just not progress?
Fall, Nwuli and Badalau are all in the portal . . . .
- Thread starter RU-ROCS
- Start date
Looks like Dorian Jones committed to Kent.
Based on where he landed, Dorian Jones probably wasn’t showing he was power conference caliber in practices.
i am legitimately curious what makes you say this
… and please offer something more than just the usual “pike sucks”
legitimately curious …

I am somewhat confused by this as well. Nwuli just seems like a pretty basic player, he can be an average or somewhat above average college hoops player, everyone gets better as they get older typically in college hoops, but sounds like some are expecting big things from Nwuli? Not seeing it.
as far as I know - he lived up to his scouting report - very raw with athleticism and little to no offensive game.
That was what we heard going in and that’s exactly what he was
not really sure what people were expecting his first year
Considering that he’s raw and athletic it’s logical to believe he will improve no matter where he goes .
Nwuli will do best in a system that creates offense from defense. SHU I think could provide that more than us based on current roster construction. We are currently still a below average defense that lost its best all purpose defensive player in Bryce Dortch. Sydnor might be an upgrade on D over Grant. And frosh like Powers have nowhere to go but up. But overall you look at our roster and you feel ok about the offense and concerned about the D.
