I think I missed Carter Lang being on scholarship, did that happen last year?

Edit: in reference to scholarship picture. W/o Lang listed I had 4 openings this season after this really exciting JG addition

I like Green Giant for Grünloh… fits his last name AND we can hand him cans of green beans and peas at games! Wouldn’t be weird at all!

Reminds me of Mike Tobey with just a touch more skill.

Once the house settlement deal is finalized, the expectation is there won’t exactly be walk ons, at least not how we currently think of them. …just 15 roster spots, everyone is on scholarship.

Tremendous get in our position of greatest need. This is a HUGE relief.

Tomorrow I will worry about other schools tampering with him. But today we celebrate.

I’ve been wondering if we need a “Get Loh” or something similar for him.

Thank God! All is good going forward.

Oh thank goodness! I almost posted something late last night, but I still wasn’t sure it was going to be announced today. But, I was told he was committed and the announcement would come sometime this week. This still fits with the “more big news is coming” along with an additional donor or two hopping in to make all of this happen. I have no news at all on the Malik Thomas waiver, and I’m trying to find a credible source (no luck on that either) who can shed light on it.

From a scout in Europe that I know:

“I am very high on Johann Grünloh. He is potentially Jakob Pöltl with a shot. Just needs to get a bit stronger. Pretty much every top tier school was on him. I was even surprised he decided for Virginia”

Well tell your scout buddy to shöve it up his äss.

Just kidding, Houston. Thanks for the info

Do the blue bloods have less appeal to the euros or is that wishful thinking?

Could see a world where it is a more level playing field for some of these guys because they might not have the blue blood brainwash of American kids.

You know the scout is serious if he is nailing both ü and ö

Maybe just familiarity with trusting a coach overseas? Big time move for a young lad. Odom is heavily connected and familiar with euro circles so could just be trust.

Did Houston copy/paste the overhead thingies from his Euro friend’s messages?
