2023 Free Agency

Pelle Larrson declared for draft but may return (maintain college eligibility)

Jones took too many charges—-good for the team, but not for his health.
LK had drills where the players would practice taking a charge—not sure that would fly any more with the portal.

BTW, a couple of completed transfers that went unnotice here…

Maty Wilkes transfers from Wisconsin to join Utah WBB

And a player from BYU transferring in as a walk-on, former Olympus star Alyssa Blanck

Will be interesting to see how Maty is. UCLA got some serious size boost from that 6’7" Stanford transfer and new recruits. While size isn’t everything, UCLA’s bigs are productive, especially that 6’4" German player who shot the lights out against us.

I don’t understand why we want one the same age as Worster. But we need all the help we can get.

On paper things seem to be shaping up. If they can all play together as a team, they could make a run of it.

Unless something goes haywire and barring injury he should definitely start over Worster. He’s also got two years left if he wants them.

A new commitment, Jake Wahlin. He just returned from his LDS church mission and was a TDS commit.

Looks like he might need to start drinking protein shakes and hitting the weights. He was 6-foot-8, 180 pounds in high school. Now he’s up to 6’10. I hope some good pounds came with the added two inches.

It always reaffirms my faith when a kid returns from a mission with crystal clear clarity and divine decision making.

Good. I hope it’s muscle.

He didn’t look chubby, he looked pretty well put together in the DNews pictures in his Ute uniform.

He does. I saw only his high school photo. Didn’t see this one. Good. At 6’10" he’s going to need body mass and strength. I’m hopeful.

If needs about 20 lbs of muscle to handle the wear and tear.

At least he isn’t as skinny as Britton Johnson was.
