Dylan Swingle all time scoring leader in his league
Brandon Wade's team finished undefeated on senior night with 35 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds, and 4 steals! However he did get screwed in not being named one of the five finalists for Mr. Basketball

Looks like Kelly and Wade play against good competition. Doesn't look like Swingle does. Not sure about the other two.

One would think that Bizeau would face some good competition in Indiana but we will see what we see. Anyhow, I am certain that KD and staff look at what they perceive as the potential and not simply what they are capable of now against whatever competition they face. Staff seems like one of the best at the developmental part of the coaching business. Very exciting!

Plus the added cushion of coming into a program with 5 redshirt transfers plus returning players with plenty of pt this season with some success ( a lot in Williams case) doesn't place the burden on them to perform immediately.
Perhaps Wade will come along quickest due to position but the other ones can help due to size.

With the 5 transfers and returning players I'm guessing coach goes back to his style of bringing freshman along slowly.

Austin Rotroff named first team All State DII Ohio, and Dylan Swingle named First team All State DIII Ohio.

Has there been any news/updates on Lamar Norman or Brandon Stone?
I wish there was a recruiting site that actually had up to date commits and prospects, esp for the smaller schools like us.
Offline
I believe Brandon Stone has recently committed to the Class of 2019 (he was questioning whether to enroll in college this year or next year) and has taken Pitt out of the running of potential schools. So now his final 4 is down to 3: South Carolina, Penn St., and Duquesne

Wouldnt be shocked if he adds pitt back in now they have a decent coach. But moving to 2019 makes it better for us maybe. :-)
