Just updated yesterday:
Top 100

Charles Manning (LSU Signee) is up to #4 overall

PF/C (6'10, 245) Khadim Sy fell a little to #6 overall, is visiting LSU next weekend. Highly skilled big man, I would say a better version of Duop Reath.
Stats
Averaged
17 points
10 boards
2.5 blocks
55% from the floor
32% from 3

SG (6'5, 195) Tomas Woldetensae is #9 on their list, and is a BIG TIME 3 point shooter, maybe could be a backup option to Lester Quinones:
Tomas' stats
48% 3 point shooter on 100 for 210
Also shot almost 90% from the FT line

Also to note, former LSU player Galen Alexander is headed to Georgetown. Brandon Rachal is headed to Tulsa.

I really liked Rachal. He had a big upside and was tough.

I think it's kind of crazy he ended up at Tulsa and Alexander ended up at Georgetown, I would have figured otherwise.

Great info.

My wish list is

2 bigs - Watford plus 1 out of Shy and Blackshear.

1 3 point shooter - Q or Thomas.

The 2 bigs is a must because we lost 3 bigs if you count Wade; Naz; and Kavell and have only added 1 big that has not played at LSU.

We lost 2 guards - Waters and Edwards but have added Hyatt; Manning and Bishop.

I would not mind taking 3 bigs but imo we have a big need for a legit 3 point shooter also.

Woldetensae put up 17 points per game with 14 minutes per game.

I wouldnt necessarily trust the MPG on there, it's notoriously tracked wrong in NJCAA website. There will be starters on team who average like 1.7 minutes a game

LINK

There's the issue, in some games it s clear they dont track minutes played and put a default "1" in there.

He had TWO games last season where he hit 7 3 pointers,

Highlights from this past season of Woldetensae:

Highlights

Not only can he fill it up from 3, he's athletic enough to get to rim and play some 1 on 1. We gotta look at a guy like that. Oh and he's a lefty

I agree.

His highlights look really good.

He looks like a great backup plan for Q. I would not mind if we just signed him instead of Q.

Me too. I forgot, why did Brandon leave? He was getting a lot of playing time.

They had a falling out. Remember he missed the last 2 games (both NIT games) his freshman year and was suspended for 1 regular season game. I think he was just not doing the things he should be doing.

Alexander got kicked off the team from the paintball incident, Kiir too.

Kiir transferred to South Florida where he was ruled immediately eligible ( fkin NCAA), but he was just a role player this year averaging 4.7 points and 2.7 rebounds a game.

Galen always had a lot of upside potential but questionable work ethic and more questionable attitude at times.

But he was always respectful in one on one interactions in high school. I think it looks like he has made some adjustment after his LSU issues. He looks to be in great shapes and also looks a little taller/bigger.

Good luck to both young men.

I remember it now. I wish things would have worked out because I really liked Brandon's game.

Any evidence that LSU is looking at this guy, or are you just throwing out names? (It's cool if you are, I do the same thing)

I havent heard anything, just saying I found this on him on this update on juco recruiting's website.

I'm sure we'll really start to explore the other options if guys like Quinones tell us no, I figure someone like him could be one of those options.

Is LSU still pursuing
32 Emmanuel Ugboh 6'11 Iowa Western C

I thought I'd read they offered him at one point.

Havent heard for sure, at this moment, probably not, but he could always come into the fold.

You know all the stuff that was coming out about wade and the animosity from compliance? I bet a lot of it stemmed from Rachal. Wade kept expecting him to play and he kept having to sit.
