This transfer thing will get easier for our coaching staff the longer they are here. Our staff was recruiting at a lower level 2 seasons ago. Now they're probably starting to have a few guys they recruited to Wyoming start to enter the portal but more of them that they recruited to UNC.

It has to be difficult with NIL to identify the guys that aren't just looking for the biggest check possible.

Agree Nil money can play a part, the big man on a smaller campus might gamble and try to be on a bigger (wyo) stage or the guy who plays at say a USC might not be making crap there and want to be the man at UW and get more exposure, planning time and Nil. Transfer portal, if recruited well can actually be ok imho

Ethan Anderson is visiting Laramie today.

D.p.

Would love nothing more than for him and his teammate from USC to commit. The big guy looks really good

I think our two biggest need positions would be solved if they both came. We already have a center coming in. To me, we need another long wing. Max plays small forward, but 6'9" is the lengthy wing we really need. We need a smaller guard that can defend quick guards, has great handles, and can push tempo. They're both great defenders. I don't think either of them are elite three point shooters, but Max is pretty solid for a tall guy, and Anderson shot it pretty well his freshman year.

Hopefully, they're good friends and both end up here.

Hopefully Ethan stayed overnight because its nice in Laramie this morning.

You're welcome. Its an exciting time to be a Cowboy hoops fan.

Yep - as others have stated, great info Old Bull - thank you.

Someone just committed, and I'm guessing its Ethan due to Marc Rodgers Twitter post.

Nice, sounds like someone wants to be a Cowboy. But who..?

LA Times says about Anderson "...nagging injuries followed him throughout his tenure."

Sidelines Wyoming's twitter handle is saying that a UCLA basketball transfer may have visited as well.

The only UCLA transfer I can find is...

Apparently there's more than one Cowboy in this posse'.

Ethan Anderson committed per his Instagram

And Max Agbonkpolo from USC as well apparently

Well this is very good news! Seems like that we filled a couple holes and really added depth. Welcome to Wyoming Max and Ethan!!
