I get the sense that Omari is returning to school. He’s more valuable to next year’s team than Donte, which says a lot about Villanova’s roster.
Quinerly, Booth, Omari, Paschall and grad transfer Cremo. Gillespie, DC Roundtree, Samuels and Swider will round it out. Am I forgetting someone? Slater may RS.
BTW, there’s a poster who always criticizes Wright for not using his 13 scholarships. I’ve seen a quote from Jay saying they do that on purpose. He uses an 8, 9 at the most, rotation. Unhappy schollie benchsitters makes for unhappy players. Motivated walkons can make for a happy family (see the walkon PSU OL that Franklin and players praise - name escapes me).
Villanova’s in play for Bryan Antoine and Scottie Lewis for the ‘19 class, both bigtime and teammates at Ranney School in NJ. They’re also in on other highly ranked ‘19 ballers and have two already committed. This could cause a numbers problem that Jay isn’t comfortable with.
Gonna miss Donte. I love his game.
