WFU Hoops: Roster Construction - +LaRavia/Taylor/Walton/Monsanto/Williams/Sy/Marsh

So as it stands if DuBose comes back.. Whitt, DuBose, Mucius, Lavaria, Ody starting lineup??
 
It's MVC competition but dude looks legit on tape. Welcome, Jake!
 
This definitely elevated my Tuesday afternoon. Forbes is hustling!

With Williamson, Ingraham, Hildreth, McCray, Massoud, and one or two more transfers off the bench. Feel like that team could at the very least be mediocre in the ACC in year 2 under Forbes assuming Whitt, Ody, and Mucius take a step of improvement.
 
Missouri Valley conference is a strong mid major every year. Sagarin rates them as #11 this year, an equal of the Mountain West and stronger than the Southern.

LaRavia has played the 5 for Indiana State. He would certainly bring an enhanced skill set to that position for the Deacs, especially in a five out offense.

Sounds about right - maybe DW in for Dubose, who shifts to Vinnie Johnson “instant offense” kinda role

That’s a NIT team at least methinks
 
Let's hold off on setting lineups and rotations.

Don't think Forbes is done adding to the roster. Also, lets confirm who is returning from this year's team. Not a lot is certain right now, except the WF basketball roster will look different than it does now.

dude this is a message board. if you edited out idle speculation and rumor mongering there would be nothing here....
 
and at this risk of massive hyperbole, this is a huge get for us. talented big, lots of high-major offers. even beyond what he personally brings (which is substantial!) it just gives a lot of credibility to Forbes and the staff and could be a turning point on the recruiting trail. if we can land a solid 4/5 to support Ody then we are are really cooking with gas
 
Laravia had more steals and assists than any player on our roster this season. Granted, I’m sure they played a few more games than us.

Only 3 more games. His assist/steals per games were similar to Williamson. Pretty good to get a big who puts up guard numbers.
 
Well that's exciting. I saw LaRavia on our list of hopefuls, watched his tape and immediately assumed he was too perfect a fit to land here. Then Forbes and company locked him up in a week. When was the last time we had an actual ACC starting-quality 4? Hoard more of a 3, Collins played Center - has to be Dinos. That'll be nice, dude looks legit and has 3 years left.
 
He seems to have that Timmy D turn-around bank shot in his repetoire.
