Notable Walk on players:

2021 (when scheduled to graduate): 1 player

6'2" Guard Austin Ash

 

[LaQuintaHawkeye]

and likely Weezy

Not if his game doesn't show dramatic improvement over last year.

He was solid, but not "enter the draft early" solid.

 

[IllQChawk]

Wieskamp will likely go after this coming season, he's all but mentioned that during an interview with MR of WQAD.

 

[LaQuintaHawkeye]

I didn't realize his family desperately needed money...at least the European League pays well.

Doesn't matter.

Joe seems pretty determined to go the Tyler Cook route. Other than being more aggressive and not having a shooting slump at the end of last season, there isn't much Joe can improve upon between now and what would be his senior year to improve his draft stock.

Next year is it. JBo, Garza, and Weezy are all in for one final run. Then, Weezy is off to Europe.

I REALLY hope we can land Gabe Wiznitzer.
