Realistically we aren’t in a rush for another commitment, we can wait out McLeod and if doesn’t end up committing, we’re still in a strong position numbers wise for next year and who knows who might be looking to transfer or decommit in the coming months that could fall in our laps.

Re: '19 PA C - Naheem McLeod (Offer)

Doing more research on McLeod, he was top 100 within ESPN’s rankings before the latest update and is 119 within 247Sports top 250 rankings. I can see him taking the role Preston fills this year for his freshmen year and just expanding on that role as Cyril graduates.

Agreed. Cyril played 18 minutes/game last year and averaged 3 fouls per game. I'll be surprised if he plays more than 20-25 minutes a game.
