Salley left the program. Kane-Johnson also decided to give up basketball.

Disappointed that these two are leaving.  Wondering if they thought they would be on scholarship this year and seeing a D3 recruit come in and get one might of led to some uneasiness.

I can understand Kane-Johnson leaving since there are 11 guards listed on the roster. But, Salley would have been the only center on the team (unless he didn't get a scholarship).

Salley was tall, but did you ever watch him play?  Calhoun's style and John Salley's style were a  complete mismatch.

I kind of wondered if there was going to be any room for Cameron Kane-Johnson.  He was certainly impressive at Westminster, I was looking forward to seeing him get a shot at D1 level, but not sure how he would do over the course of the season.

Since he transferred in from D-3, does he have to sit out for a year?

He was a senior last season.  Perhaps it has to do with whether he graduated from Williams college.  I'm just speculating.

6-8 William Dunn is the latest verbal.  Averaged 24 pts 10 rebounds his jr year.
Guys filming clips don't help much.  Kid is 6-8 so I assume he can dunk, but doesn't show one clip of rebounding technique, defensive ability and only a couple jump shots (form looks very clean).  We need some size and a senior year should be worth 10-20 lbs. which he could use.  Nice pick up.

Myles Hunter 6-5 shooting guard verbals today.  Thats three verbals for the 2020 class.

                                                              In this video you'll see his outside shot.   He really has a lot of arc(brings rain) on his jumper.

That little guard for the team wearing orange is kind of a slow learner! He got stuffed about 6 times on the exact same drive into the lane against Traore!

3 ball is kind of a push shot, jumper from inside has elbows flying all over the place.  Release on 3 is quick enough, but pretty low.  We'll have to see.  A 6-5 SG that can hit consistently should have a fine career running with Quis.

I think Traore has deceptive wing length and will be a rim protector.   Didn't see an explosive leaper but a guy who will work his behind off .   runs the floor well.    D is way ahead of his offense at this time.

Correct on Hunter having what looks to be a push shot.   He looks like he can stroke it from three well and take you off the dribble.   Nice pick ups.
