Gilbert was nothing special when the Zips played Concord.

This man attempted more than 10 3 pointers a game two years ago

Could potentially be a good pickup for them if he builds off a solid freshman year. Mainly needs to work on improving scoring efficiency. He seems to rebound the ball really good for a guard.

Concord's Boubacar Djigo has committed to Marshall. That's one fewer Concord player @NWAkron has to worry about being on Akron's roster this year.

FWIW

 

247 has Eric as the #138th ranked portal player. Guys around him have committed to Bama, Miss St, Oregon State, Wake

 

Sharron is not ranked in their top 247

 

Neither was Gillespie, so that may answer the "FWIW" part of this post now that I am typing this out 😆

Yeah, I think when I looked a few days ago they only had ~300 out of the ~1500 portal players rated. I don't even think they listed Young in the portal until about a week after he declared.

 

It feels there are much better sources out there for listing and ranking portal players. Unfortunately most of them are hidden behind paywalls.

6'10" 240 lbs big man. Averaged 37.5 mpg, 20.8 ppg, and 15.4 rpg for Southern Wesleyan if I'm reading their website correctly.

Looks like we got a 6’10” transfer with rough stats of 20ppg, 15rpg, 37% from 3. 

 

I don't think we've gotten anything officially. That's just a prediction. Considering the page only has 6k followers and can't even spell the players name correctly it's hard for me to give it much weight.

Whoops, I missed the "predicting" at the top. Removed to avoid confusion.

I think it's just a prediction. But the player is intriguing

Josiah Harris in the Portal.  Let's see if Dustin can land that plane!  

[Zippy87]

I didn't know Harris had eligibility remaining.

There's always eligibility left if only you know where to look.

I assume Josiah was given a medical redshirt playing only 6 games with Akron. He actually got engaged a few days ago. I saw several Zips players on Instagram share it on their story so they must stay in touch.
