Some of the info I see on Samba lists him as class of 19. Bad info or did that change?
He reclassified to '18 recently. That is why he was still available.

Now get Jones and this becomes a great class! ray:
I like Kane more than Castleton or Conditt, but hey, I was always a huge Egwu fan and prefer defensive-minded bigs over sticks that can shoot.

Great news! Welcome Samba!
I wonder if this may actually push Finke to stay. From his dad’s comments in the article, it sounded like he was not happy about having to guard 5s all the time. If he and Black both stay I would still expect both to start, but Samba (and Ebo) would allow Finke to move over to the 4 on defense anytime Black is out. Though I’m not sure if Finke guarding a quicker 4 is any better than having to guard a stronger 5.
On the other hand, if we also land Trice, I would be more inclined to think Finke will be leaving.
Great News! We got a Big Guy for '18!

Great, great news! I hope this will encourage Black and Finke we can be pretty special next year and neither should have to spend the year playing out of position.

It's nice to have the flexibility to choose who he should be on. Actually play matchups instead of being forced into a mismatch.
So did all of our 2018 recruits reclassify to 2019?
Not hearing from Dan is a worry.
Hope this isn’t fake news.
If not this is great work by our staff.
