Random transfer speculation I put together after seeing this news...
Elijah Foster, 6'7 240, Jr. forward. Went to Rainier Beach for HS but wasn't heavily recruited. Started for Nevada this season and was putting up 12ppg and 7.4rpg before he got arrested and suspended for the rest of the season.
Sounds like uncertain future at Nevada... his suspension is lifted and he can come back to Nevada next season but might transfer. With Rice coming here I wouldn't be shocked if he gives UW a look... but depends on if Hop wants to deal with the character issues or not.
Given the lack of size on the roster, I wouldn't mind rolling the dice with him.

I don't think many 5th year transfers will be interested in UW, but hopefully a guy like Jeter is.
I'd say the odds are pretty good for UW giving him a shit load of PT, west coast and playing for Dave Rice. Maybe I'm Doogin'. But the stars are aligning.

Add a quality freshman or two (Kevin Porter, praying dog.jpg), and you could have a team.
It feels like Hop has a master plan behind the scenes. I think the Dave Rice hire was huge. Now UW has pipeline to Mater Dei with Hop, which is a power down here in So Cal and LA with Dollar. Dave Rice gives us Vegas and Bishop Gormon and Will has relationships with all the big time schools in Seattle. They're hedged around the west coast and not so leveraged to Seattle.

He's not a Pac-12 caliber big.
But he's one of #MyVikings, so sure.
Where's that lefthanded kid Nelson going for #yourvikings? He lit it up at the state tournament last year - something like 26 against the B-Roy Garfield All-Stars in the semis. Haven't been doing much TBS this season.

I don't think its coincidence that he decided to transfer the day after Dave Rice left for Washington..

SG - Nowell
