Gone are players who accounted for 60% of last year’s minutes, grabbed 58% of the rebounds and scored 65% of the points. — TrainingRm67

This could be a tough, rebuilding year for the Ags given the departures and moving to the MW.

40.2% from 3 is pretty darn good as well. He was draining some NBA 3's in that video. I'm hoping to see a rim protector pretty soon and it would be nice if we landed a big man that could score inside as well.

Impressive highlights for Veniamin Abosi at USF last season:

Nils to Irvine and Wilson to sac state is tough given that’s essentially equal level of competition. — SoCalAggie

It hard to know why they chose to make these moves. It's a lateral move at best in terms of competition and I doubt that either school could offer them big NIL money.

According to Verbal Commits and 247 Sports we offered the following players but they committed elsewhere:

Sean Felts 6'11 Center from Snow College- Utah State
Ryan Hunt 7'0 Center from Eastern Arizona College - TCU
Kingston Whitty 6'2 PG from Arden, NC - NC State
Mason Magee 6'0 PG from Chandler, AZ - USF
Elias Obenyah 6'4 SG from Richmond, CA - Stanford
Rider Portela 6'6 SG from Phoenix, AZ - Colorado
Jaden Balies 6'2 Combo G from San Juan Capistrano, CA - Seattle

Committed: Braiden McKenna 6'2 290 OL from Los Alamitos HS in Los Alamitos, CA.

Committed: Xander Grayson 6'3 280 OL from Junipero Serra HS in San Mateo, CA.

Great news! Stokes has so much potential to become a elite player.

Loyola Maryland is a member of the Patriot League and the last time their men's basketball team had a winning season record was the 2012-13 season. Amzil appeared in 16 games for the Aggies last year for a total of 45 minutes which is an average of 2.8 minutes per game. I would imagine that he'll get a lot more playing time at Loyola Maryland since their program is a definite step down in competition. I hope it works out well for him.

My thoughts exactly.

Wilson to Sac and Cooper to LMU makes me wonder if they were unhappy here and just wanted a change rather than a move up to a higher level of competition?

I can't stand that blue field either. The only one that is worse is the red field at Eastern Washington. What an eyesore!

There could be a lot of things that we are unaware of regarding Wilson's transfer to Sac: maybe he just wants to play for Bibby, maybe he got a good NIL deal from Sac, maybe he was struggling with the academics here, maybe something else...who knows? I do hope that he found what he was looking for though.

That's an impressive highlights video on Massamba. It looks like he has an all around, full set of skills: 3 point shooting, mid-range jumpers, nice floaters, drives to the rim for dunks, blocks and assists.

247 Sports listed him as the #23 combo guard recruit in the nation for 2025 and they give him a 92 rating which is the highest rating I've ever seen for an Aggie recruit.
