RamIt, thanks for adding this.

I like the addition to the team. He adds depth at 3 positions potentially: wing, power forward, center depending on foul trouble, injury and matchup’s.

I haven’t seen or read much of him other than the vid posted and what Bill Koch wrote the other day. Are you more familiar with Traore’s game ? What do you think ?

His commitment is being discussed over in the transfers thread in NCAA or Bust. Interesting comments on Traore; check them out if you get a chance.

Long wing-span. Didn’t know about that.

He really sounds like the type of guy this team has been missing for a couple years.

He was mentioned in one of the general recruiting or transfer threads, but I don't think a thread here was created before he committed. I've been swamped at work with commencement coming up, so that's my excuse at least. :)

Thanks for posting this, StevieP.

I know he didn’t play much at SJU but, I really like the form on his 3 point shot in the vid above. Nice arc on the the ball, too, in those 3 pt shots.

If gives me hope watching the video. And, I needed some hope because it has been awfully quiet on adding another good big for added depth in the front court.
