6-3 175 transfer from Fairleigh Dickinson.  Brandon is from Warrensville,Ohio.   Led FDU in scoring at 14 pts per game but shot only .394 from the field and.296 from three for a 4-22 team.

Would imagine he'll replace Olison

Double ET:
We need to sign a big guy and another to replace Akuchie.

Hopefully Will Dunn continues to improve every year like Akuchie did.  Did get Mattia Acunzo that played HS at Kennedy, was at Toledo then transferred to Robert Morris but only played 3 games.  He's 6'8.  I think freshman Jacori Owens has potential.  He's 6'9.  Need to get more PT out of him than what Jamir played this year.  Still would like to see more size inside. 

ucfpengbuck:
I just watched a video on Brandon's twitter page where he scored a career high of 36 against Wagner who was the top team in their league.  He seems to have a similar game to Cohill.  In the video his athletic abilty really shows.   Mostly a slasher with a nice vertical.  Didn't see his perimeter stroke but if that part improves he will really help the program.  Being left handed might give him an advantage.

As far as getting a big man.  All I want is a guy lilke CSU or Okland had that can score inside and intimidate in the paint.   Even the guy at Fort Wayne had that ability.   The Big at Wright State is special due to the fact he can play inside and stretch the floor from three.  WSU loses Loudon Love and then Grant Basile steps in and they don't miss a beat.
Noe Anibar was probably the best in the Calhoun era.   Akuchie in my opinion was more of a forward and not a natural post up guy that was a default five.
