From TOS:
English import Dylan Johns, a rising senior, could possibly end up one of the best finds of the Breakout Challenge. A big and fluid post player with touch and skill, Johns is at least 6-foot-10, has great instincts and is already pretty productive for a kid who has only been playing basketball for about four years.

He'll be joining the team in December, and we don't know if he's getting a scholarship. It may even be a preferred walk-on type of thing.
Again, we don't know.

IF he joins in December can he play this year? Would be very big pickup for us if he could play.

He's listed on Rivals as a class of 2013. From his picture he kind of reminds me of Rich Krajewski. Hopefully he's more developed and skilled. LINK

Looks like this might be the mystery big white kid some reported seeing around the basketball facility this summer.
This is going to be an international team of the Dale Brown mode. This kid is English, best I can tell.

This is very likely to be true.

Yes he is. Played for the British U16 team in 09. LINK
He's obviously gotten better since then.

numbers game. We have 5 spots open for next season with Dylan jones that gives us 5 recruits. Jarrell Martin still out their & we are recruiting Keith Frazier. We know CJJ is holding a spot for Martin so that puts us 1 over

We still don't know if Johns is going to be on scholarship.
