See the link below. From the article:

“Former Washington State guard TJ Bamba, one of the top college basketball transfers this spring, has committed to play at Villanova next season, he told ESPN on Friday.

Bamba said he picked Villanova over a host of schools including Kansas, Tennessee, Texas, Georgia Tech, Auburn, North Carolina and St. John's.

"This gives me the best chance to reach my ultimate goal of playing in the NBA," Bamba said. "Players in my mold like Josh Hart and Donte DiVincenzo have gotten drafted from Villanova and proven to be valuable pieces. My hope is to follow in their footsteps."”



Flies from Pullman right over Happy Valley and lands at Nova in Philly. PSU is the Rhoades less traveled. I’m fed up.

So selfishly, I'm pleased with his decision... \\//

This is pretty interesting. TJ had one major offer coming out of high school - Washington St.

We made the NCAA tournament with four portal guys playing key roles: Pick, Henn, Funk and Wynter. Are you better off trying to recruit known quantities from the portal OR trying to build your program with HS recruits? Or both?
