With KE's recent social media activity and quotes regarding Polite, Gray, and Cooper, I'm expecting a frontcourt add. I never really saw Otis Frazier in the 2 guard spot in any of the tape i've seen on him; he was mainly on the wing, but if he can provide some help there, then finding an experienced guy who can slot in at the 4 makes this roster about as complete as anyone could've hoped for. Again, losing AJ leaves a large void defensively that probably needs to be addressed. He was this teams "eraser", and KE is coming from Tennessee where Yves Pons served that same role. Maybe Henry can do that, but given that every transfer we've gotten has come from an NCAA Tournament team, I can't see us rolling into the season with more than one "question mark" in the starting 5 (Polite).

I said earlier that Schwartz didn't transfer here to play out of position, and I can also assume that he didn't transfer here to miss the tournament either. We are in Win-Now mode.

Maybe I missed it but I haven't heard KE mention much about or post a workout with Hartwell or XJ. Are we sure they are coming back?

Not to get all metaphysical, but sometimes what isn’t said speaks volumes ...

I know that XJ has been working out with the team, and I know that Jamal has been active on social, seemingly in support of KE.

I'm pretty sure he mentioned Jamal by name in his introductory press conference.

Oakland's Daniel Oladapo surprisingly enters portal; says he's open to returning

Oladapo has played two seasons at Oakland and emerged this past season as a major presence inside, leading the Golden Grizzlies to the Horizon League championship game.

I’m excited for the new additions, but Mason desperately needs a proven PG next season.

Watch the first 15 mins of the Robert Morris game. They put three dudes on him and couldn’t contain him. Really good around the rim and off the dribble. Would be an instant starter here

Coach has touted Mike Gray and Ronny Polite the last 2 days.. I think we're set.

You’ve said the same thing two weeks straight. We all agree and get it

He has the best spin move we’ve seen in Fairfax since Pearson graduated. Filthy.

Gonna catch flack from this but oladapo> Oduro by a fair margin. Dude looks like a giant Defensive End too.

I wouldn’t be too upset to have both of them. Fill the team with upgrades and gym rats and let everything play itself out. We’ll drive the A-10 crazy.

I wouldn't be upset to have them both either. Coach English CLEARLY loves Oduro, and pairing him with Oladapo in the frontcourt would be fantastic, especially since they play 2 different positions...

Oladapo played strictly center last year. Not seeing he’s not capable of playing the 4 but he excelled at the 5 and guarded dudes 4 inches taller very well
