15 players. Final roster should be out by late September.

The last of our transfers who sat out last year is 6'8", 230 lb F/C Olufemi "Femi" Olujobi of Long Island, NY. Femi transferred from Oakland University, a Horizon League D1 mid-major located in Michigan. Like Edmead & Kadji, Femi also has 2 years remaining.
Similar to Japhet Kadji, there's not a lot on Femi since high school. But here's a couple of clips to give you an idea of what Femi looks like.
Workout clip from 2017:
I don't expect Femi to hit THAT shot during games... but it's a glimpse into Femi's movement ability and basic skills for his size.
Femi actually hit this shot against Clemson... but I don't want him to fall in love with his 3-pt shot.
At the same time, I think we should give our basketball staff credit for finding a skilled big man diamond in the rough & helping him develop into a player. That's not easy to do in today's college basketball environment. It's early in the season, but that can only help us moving forward.

So far, Femi is good as advertised....thanks dsgo!
I see it simply as this....we are getting excited over a bunch of players we haven't seen play in person. Or as a team live. I understand the enthusiasm but I'm reserving my opinion until Nov/Dec 2017. We need to keep it real and understand, we were like NSS said a 3-29 team last year. Should we improve with the player additions? Yes but the last 20+ years of Aggie men's BB has been mostly disappointing and no I'm not being a Debbie Downer!
Well, it’s Nov/Dec and I humbly decided to let my fellow posters know I was wrong! This team is for real and you need to get on the wagon early.....thanks, DGSO for keeping us informed!

I hope Joiner has someone camped out at Concord NC 1st Assembly High to court the 6'8 soph Cheick Traore
