Absolutely well deserved!! Not sure who or how Freshman of the year in the SoCon was chosen but they TOTALLY missed. Although the kid from VMI had a good year but Pas WAY more deserved this based on total numbers not just average.

I just hope we keep him. I know that the NCAA rules say another school cannot contact a player until he is in the portal but all another school’s coach needs to do is tell the players HS coach that if so in so is interested, they would pick him up if he entered the portal. Still against the rules but very difficult to prove. That is one of the big problems with the portal. It puts these coaches on the honor system and many of them have no honor when it comes to getting good players.

He chose WCU in the first place. He had a great first season - with 3 years of eligibility left. If he likes his coaches, his teammates, Cullowhee and the academic atmosphere, why would he transfer? He has 3 years on a pretty good team that fought for SoCon title in a weird year. If he's happy - it will take a lot to get him to leave.
