Blue & Gold Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) This was posted by Zippy5 earlier today: Lorng is a 6'9"-6'10" C/PF from Wesely Christian in Kentucky. His hometown is Paris, France, so he'd feel right at home in Akron. As lilroodude posted, he's a 4-Star recruit with offers from Missouri, Middle Tennessee State & UAB. He's visiting campus today with his HS teammate 2017 PG Keith Clemons. Edited April 17, 2017 by Blue & Gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy5 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Guessing Fulford offered him while at Mizzou so we should have a little bit of a leg up here. Would definitely be a nice package deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed5120 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm surprised we don't see more mid-majors recruit international players. St Mary's built their program on landing guys like Patty Mills and Dellavedova. They had 7 Aussies on their roster this past season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NBA is drafting more international players than ever. Maybe the money in the recruiting budget just isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valpo was supposed to have 5 international players on their roster last year. One of them transferred and 4 played throughout the season. It is a great recruiting tool if you have good scouts.

So should we blame Buffalo, for being in the MAC East, for our budget issues instead of the Info? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
