We absolutely need some international flavor on this team.

Looks like Luka played professional basketball in Austria as well.

He's listed as a 2024 on the WMA roster. He seems to be well built and from his videos he plays inside a lot. Hard to tell the level of competition but we do need a big or two for next year.

I forgot to mention that many, if not all, of the WMA players were at the Albany game. I ran into a few of them after the game.

I have enjoyed building a relationship with Coach Martin and the staff at UMass.
After a conversation today, I am thankful to receive a full scholarship offer from Coach!

would love to see UMass start a pipeline from WMA - they have produced some very good D1 players - none probably better than Filipowski - not saying we'd have gotten him, but with Mannix's ties to UMass I think Frank will be making a huge push to get those kids to think UMass - this kid would be a good get - from what I've seen on Youtube he is very athletic for a 6'10 kid.

And add another one — Tyler Mason, out of the Mid-Atlantic region somewhere now prepping in Phoenix — posted on Twitter that he has committed. 6-10 dude. About all I know.

Edit: think he’s from Virginia.

so 4 guys signed and as far as I know only one open scholarship and thats assuming Sawyer is not coming back

Frank most likely knows already if Cross is coming back and if this is any indication then he's not. Way too early to speculate who might not be back next year but the early favorite IMO would be Foster so that would leave one spot we'd need to clear. Of the remaining guys I really don't want to see any of them gone so I guess we'll have a surprise or two come Spring
