In response to bisonmania
I am curious as to whom will fill the last scholarship. Verbal commits only shows Bucknell with a couple of kids with offers.
That's a good question. Of the three offers still outstanding, I don't think there is much of a chance of any ending up in Lewisburg. It's possible there will be a late offer and commitment, but that is becoming more unlikely each day. If nothing happens in the next few weeks, that means the scholarship will be carried over to the spring, a process that hasn't worked out real well in the past.
One possibility - and one I'd like to see explored more - is to land a transfer. Langel has brought in almost ten quality players via the transfer route, despite having far less basketball tradition/success than Bucknell plus a much worse gym plus a location in the middle of the tundra. With a concerted effort, the Bison might be able to land a few transfers as well.
