T-Sam now a grad transfer

[the Blades]

Samuel has one year of eligibility remaining and is on track to graduate from Penn State with a degree in sociology....Samuel looked to be a key player off the bench early in the 2016-17 campaign, but he saw his role reduced as the season wore on. The Brooklyn, New York native finished with 3.9 points per game and 1.8 assists per game.

Yep already spoke to him earlier lolol.

Finding out if coaches are interested in having him back for a season.

 

[the Blades]

You don't miss a trick Ozzie.....

 

[CaNOLEE]

We want to you back TSam. Sometimes the devil you know...

 

[Ozzie3178]

Doesn't look good for him....

 

[Huskyfan99]

Doesn't look good for him....

He wanted to go back to Uconn ?

 

[Ozzie3178]

Yea he would of course come back but no

 

[Huskyfan99]

Yea he would of course come back but no

That's what I figured . Any luck with Elijah brown ?

 

[KhalidShockedTheWorld]

Not really sure why anyone is that excited about him.

 

[the Blades]

I don't see T-Sam as a need and I see him wanting to play at a lower level school so he can get extended PT in his last year. Oz says a combo but wasn't the plan to have Diallo as a Husky ?........I see Uconn needing a bigger 6-5'ish guard in the same mode. They have 4 smallish type guards( 6-2 an under) but how about a bigger one to match-up with others teams big guards/who could also swing over to the wing in a 3 guard set ? ....who was the Diallo back-up plan ?

 

[Ozzie3178]

I'm still trying to get Elijah brown and Jaylen Nowell info and a few others.

Yes Blades preferably 6-4/5 ish guy who can play make not just a shooter is what we looking for.

 

[CaNOLEE]

I still see a starting 4/5 as more of a need.

But I'd take TSams toughness and championship experience in a heartbeat if we couldn't land a Big.

Kev is putting a lot of eggs in the Larrier at the 4 and Enoch/Durham basket.

 

[the Blades]

I guess he's back in the (AAC) neighborhood, should be plenty of PT available down there:

 

[andersonfro]

I'll be pulling for that dude

 

[CaNOLEE]

I thought we could really use his toughness and defense for one more year.

Or are we still waiting for the next Ray Allen to wAlk through the door?
