Blue & Gold Posted April 29, 2018 Report Posted April 29, 2018 7-0, 248 C transferring in from South Carolina. 24/7Sports dot com has him as a 3-star Center. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted April 29, 2018 Author Report Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) I think he'll have to sit one to play two. Also ranked a 3-star prospect by ESPN.com (per South Carolina's website). Edited April 29, 2018 by Blue & Gold Quote
Blue & Gold Posted April 29, 2018 Author Report Posted April 29, 2018 Oops, umm, this is embarrassing. I misspelled his name in the thread title. Could a mod edit? Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted April 29, 2018 Report Posted April 29, 2018 Holy crap. Did we have a scholly left? Quote

No. Unless one of the new people is walking on for a season, somebody else must be leaving. I have noticed on Verbal Commits, it says that Xeyrius Williams is committed without an offer. I thought it was just a dumb mistake, but that might be the extra scholly Quote
UAZippers Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 I see Khadim is from Victory Rock Prep. Same school as Deng Riak and Loren Jackson (whose dad is the coach). Quite the connection if these guys work out and we keep getting quality players from the program. Quote
dre22era Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Quote He appeared in 45 games, recording a total of 11 points and 38 rebounds. After logging 13 minutes at Tennessee on Feb. 13, Gueye didn’t play again in 2017-18. He was a three-star recruit who also had interest from Arizona State. http://www.thestate.com/sports/college/university-of-south-carolina/usc-mens-basketball/article207152904.html Quote
akronzips71 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 So did he not play because he really sucks, or did he not play because they are a high quality program and they had better big men he could not unseat? Quote

Rumor has it he didn't play because SC doesn't believe 7' is tall enough to be considered a big man, and he didn't have the dribbling skills to be a PG. Quote
kreed5120 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 I'm going to guess the fact he's averaging a turnover every 3.28 minutes plays a factor in why he hasn't played more at South Carolina. Quote
LZIp Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Yeah this is interesting considering I thought we were full on scholly's. My totally uniformed opinion - Zipmeister brought up Williams' academics for some odd reason. I'm starting to think he is ineligible this year and doesn't count as a scholly? Quote

kreed5120 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Just because we might not have any current available scholarships for 2019 doesn't mean we won't have at least one by next April. It's highly probable that 1 or more players transfer. Quote

I'd assume they will stabilize in a year or two when he has a roster full of his guys and class numbers somewhat evened out Quote

NWAkron Posted January 5, 2020 Report Posted January 5, 2020 Gueye isn't doing that great at Tampa and stats said he had a disqualification from a game...but no reason why. Quote
