I like Greg E as a player - he has a high motor, works hard, does the dirty work down low. He doesn't have an especially polished offensive game but that isn't specifically necessary in the lighter-weight and guard dependent Horizon League. I also get the impression Greg is very coachable and believe so much of his development over the years is due to trusting Coach Donnelly at UDJ and just busting his tail to get better. Alot to like about the kid in my opinion. Agree, 100%.

A Greg Eboigbodin update: llinois transfer Greg Eboigbodin has offers from Louisiana Tech, Southern Illinois and Northeastern. UMass, Buffalo, and Niagara are also interested. Greg will be announcing on Monday. I'm hoping we get him, but I have no indication we even want or are recruiting him at this point. Then again, my opinion doesn't matter at all...

I'm also hoping that we are in the running for Greg, but like you, I haven't heard of us being connected with him since Coach Ray left. On the surface, it seems like a no brainer that the current staff would pursue him, but I don't know what other options are out there that Coach Davis is considering, or what Greg E might have expressed about any overtures from the Titans, if indeed any came. I guess we will know Monday. Good luck to the young man, wherever he lands.

My guess is SIU with Louisiana Tech being 2nd My wild guess is Buffalo, and I make that with no inside information or other solid indication.

He never announced. Let's hope someone from our coaching staff contacted him and brought about a change of heart.

I wonder if someone (hopefully us) made a late push and got him to reconsider someone outside of his reported offers. For me, a great scenario would be adding a grad transfer big man (Reed) and a player like Greg who would potentially be a very effective front court player with three years of eligibility starting in 2019.

The ideal scenario. Add 3* pg Harge and another juco with some size (a player similar to Tariiq Jones), and now you're in business.

I'm still expecting something tomorrow. Let's face it, he's quickly running out of "Monday's" prior to classes starting
