New staff has been doing a good job of getting us some bigs.

This kid visited a few years ago as a frosh in high school. Loads of potential, excellent student as well!

Grad transfer 6'5" SG Jakolby Long from Southern Utah. Previous stop at Iowa St. I believe too.

4 star who averaged 24 ppg senior year in h.s. and was the Oklahoma 6A POY.

We needed guard/wing depth and hopefully this takes care of that.

Major commit tonight - Niles Notre Dame class of 2021 forward Troy D'Amico.

Mullins' recruiting has been everything we hoped it would be.

Wonderful news! Valpo was in on D'Amico too. I'm very glad to see him in the MVC even if it's not with us. I've said many times: the Valley needs a strong SIU and I think Mullins is the man to get them there.

Really excited about the Salukis 2021 class. Steven Verplancken is a D2 transfer that has to sit the year so you can throw him in too. Lot of depth coming in added to 2 pretty strong classes before it from Mullins.

Not to nitpick on Verplancken, but he is a D-2 transfer that has to sit a year.
