Sommerville to Rutgers

Maybe we can get him when he transfers out of the Big Ten like Cellus did?
Anyway maybe he can get instant playing time there. Rutgers finished 10th in the Big Ten,
and I doubt they'd be expected by anyone to compete for the title next year.
They have only gone to the NCAA twice since 1991, losing in the First Four in 2022.
They've also had only one player drafted by the NBA since 2006 when POB was drafted.

I'm sure he has his reasons for going there. I find it hard to understand though. If you can't go to a respectable P5 program, for instance, any of the winning basketball programs in the BIG that are perennial tournament teams, why not choose a good/great Mid major team?Originally posted by yoda View Post

Congratulations to Lathan. It would have been nice if he chose a closer school so his parents could see him in person more often, but they will be able to see many of his Big Ten games played at Iowa, Illinois, Northwestern, Wisconsin, etc.Comment

I figured we were a long shot for Lathan. Best of luck young man. I'll be a fan just by association of who his father is and what he has done for this community, during his playing days and currently.Comment

Here is more about Jarrett Hensley, who just entered the transfer portal yesterday...
He is from U. of Cincinnati. He is a 6'8" junior forward originally from Leavenworth High School (Kansas), and he did a prep year at Link Prep in Branson, MO, where he was rated as a top 150 recruit. He spent one season at North Carolina-Greensboro where he didn't play much and averaged only 1.8 ppg. He transferred to Cincinnati when his coach at UNCG, Wes Miller, took the Cincinnati coaching job, and played the last 2 seasons there, averaging 1.5 ppg in 2021-22 and 2.0 ppg in 2022-23. His 3-point percentage in his 3 college seasons has never been better than 18%. He would only have 1 more season of eligibility left.

I don't quite understand why a player who has never averaged more than 2 ppg, 1.3 rpg, or shot better than 18% from three in 3 years of D1 play has so many good mid-major programs pursuing him. Can anyone explain? Anyway, I have to think that with the signing of Atlason, Thomas, Pettigrew, and Ellis, and the fact there are no open scholarships, that Bradley's interest would be minimal.Comment

Right, and he'll be playing for a long time family friend who will have his best interests at heart. Actually, his parents should be able to see nearly every game with the exception of Rutgers home games and games at Penn State and Maryland. Rutgers will have one of the best recruiting classes in the country so it makes sense for Sommerville to challenge himself at the Big 10 level now knowing he can always count home to Bradley if he ever wants to. I wish him good luck.Originally posted by Da Coach View PostThe True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies... - John Walter WaylandComment

Honestly, until the portal issues iron themselves out (if ever), I'd much rather see us picking up upperclassmen than bringing in high school kids that are likely to give us one good season before moving on to greener pastures if they have any success at all.Larry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment
