We're getting a visit from San Diego G Deuce Turner, WCC Sixth Man of the Year and Second Team All-WCC last year. Averaged 15.5 pts on 37.4% shooting from 3PT. Also visiting UCSB and having an in-home visit with ECU.

Another shooter. Remember his name came up a few weeks back and watching some video. Seems like another legit shooter, but some of same concerns as Becht, can he play D. Also did not start at USD? In any case looks like a viable option. Wonder when visiting? For what are needs are currently, it would seem to be an either/or case with him and Becht. To sman's point, I feel like if you get a visit, it means you have an offer. Could be wrong but it seems like the case in the fast moving portal world.
He averaged 25.6 mpg and started 13 games, while being their leading scorer, so he definitely had a starter-type role. He dropped 34 on St. Mary's.
Guess they just liked bringing him off the bench for a change of pace?
Definitely would be an unusual path for a guy to land at UR...started out at Bucknell and had a decent role as a freshman, then went JUCO, then two years at San Diego.

And the WCC is a pretty solid conference, actually surprised ranked 11th considering St Mary's and Zags.
He does seem like he has some Jordan King in him.
Did he visit yet? Any scoop. As much as we need size/athletes to replace Dji and Bigs, we could use a proven shooter. This guy fits the bill.
He can play (or least he could when I saw him in high school). He's a more skills than athletic guy which is what we seem to like at UR. Defense wasn't his strong suit in HS. He might be "King- like" on offense but what was really surprising with King was his D. Not sure this guy will be as advanced there. We need him to be more King than Roche!
Have not seen anything about a visit to UR, but he just committed to UCSB.

Damn. Going to need some good news in the next two weeks or I’m gonna start to get worried with 4 spots left to fill.
Why don’t you change your billboard profile, and see if it doesn’t change our luck.
We’ll get a good game strategist coach?
This one is tough. I'm going to assume we weren't as interested as we thought, because outwardly he seemed like King 2.0. Can't believe he would pick UCSB over us.
Yep this one stinks. Excellent 3 point shooter with stats from a good league. Beagle was a nice pick up but lots of work to do still. Need shooting and replace the athleticism and defense lost with Dji/Bjgs/Harris. Good news is the portal is still pretty full. Hopefully can start landing some guys. Maybe some of p5 NIL money is getting spent up and some guys will start falling our way.

I'm holding out for more NIL money
Moondog had a lot of misses early on last year as well. Not worried yet, but....

we can still land Rodney Rice if u guys can sort out the avatars!
Well in fairness Rodney Rice comitted to Maryland, so maybe Annap's was a positive? I think we can all agree my avatar is the worst - BUT I am too lazy to change it.
Your avatar is the epitome of brutality.
Or, he has this strange crush on him. "Not that there is anything wrong with that".
Rothstein is such a turd. He's truly like an AI version of himself with six or seven catchphrases he regurgitates daily. His schtick is nauseating.

"don't waste your calories on pizza outside of the Eastern Time Zone" always does give me a little chuckle though
At least we finally get to sleep tomorrow.
