I believe we have our first recruit signed early for next year...does anyone have details on him?
Who? Where? Pettigrew, or someone else?
There are next to no real details if its Petigrew you are refferencing
If you missed them we posted a bit on him in the last Saluki game thread. Glad you opened a new thread so that we can better discuss all of our new and expected player changes and additions for 2025-26. As for Pettigrew he appears to be a high potential forward who would primarily compete for playing time with Ellis, Sepp, Shaw, Carson Schwieger and Jayden Watson who is redshirting. So---------We still desperately need a center and JT Pettigrew is listed as a high school center but I don't expect him to fill much or any of our need for one.
If anybody has any insights on Watson I would love to hear them. Just from watching his shoot around warmups I have no idea what he might add to the 25-26 Valpo team and if he is competing for playing time behind the VU player group I listed above then I'm inclined to believe that we see as much of him next season as we are seeing of Lucas Scroggins and Louth Coulibaly during this one.

Reading the article again helped my memory. I don't want to tell everything to those who do not subscribe but now I am picturing (perhaps incorrectly) a slightly taller Kaspar Sepp who also rebounds, backs down defenders for points, blocks some shots and may be able to guard anybody he has to switch on to. Maybe he can handle the ball and shoot the 3 but you will have to subscribe to see if Paul covered it.I believe we have our first recruit signed early for next year...does anyone have details on him?

We will need a Victory Bell article with more details on Jayden Watson and some speculation on how Isaiah Stafford can best mesh with Wright, Monegro, and McNair during the 25-26 season. Even with Schmidt and DeAveiro gone I can still see a lot of 3 guard offense minutes but I'm not even sure we need a true point guard for next season.
