Some of these are surprising, especially the gymnast. Not surprised by the football (lots of money in football)

Looks like a great rebounder, no idea how good he is defending post players, but it doesn't seem like he's that much of a rim protector, very few blocks.

Cohen committed to Arkansas. I'm sure he is getting a fat bag and I hope it's worth it because I'm not sure he will have much fun in the SEC.

I'm interested in Preecher's thoughts on that. He didn't seem too high on Cohen and I think he's friends with Musselman.

I have a hard time seeing him compete athletically in that conference. But I'm pulling for him.

We've seen the ceiling for Cohen and it is much lower than what he will face in the SEC... Not saying that he will not improve or adjust, more that this is a much bigger step than he faced in the A10...

Good luck Josh, you're gonna need it!

Looks like we've reached out to:
Tom House (Florida State)
Reid Ducharme (Xavier)
Brayden O'Connor (UMass Lowell)
Malik Henry (George Mason)

I was a big fan of Reid's coming out. Hopefully that one goes someplace.

That stuff is fascinating to me. It would be something if Muss took USC and Cohen was back on the market.

I would definitely welcome him back. I've been a pretty vocal fan of his impact on the team and with the community. I don't see it happening, but put me down for one open arms welcome if he did decide to come back.

I'd be more interested in the reaction of his teammates.

personally I'd rather them get a 6'9 - 6'10 athletic guy who might score less but can block shots and rebound. Josh was a good player but we need to get more athletic - a inch or two taller DHS type would be perfect. Teams took it to the hoop with no fear of being blocked - I'm 100% sure our guards had more blocks than our bigs did.

Jayden had 19, but he's a forward.
DHS - 17
Cohen - 16
Keon - 12
Diggins - 10
Cross - 9
Worthy - 4
Davis - 3
Curry - 2
Majok - 1
