Yusef Jihad is an under the radar transfer who’s a strong talented player, with high potential. In HS was named third team All-State by Detroit Press. Red-shifted his freshman year at Oakland, and played limited minutes last season, but did shoot 3-7 on three’s.

After two years at Oakland, he’s still only 18-years old and won’t turn 19 till next month as he skipped a grade or two in grade school. Has looked very good in practices.

I certainly hope so because our front court will face some more experienced front court players in conference next season. For example CMU just added 6'10 240 pound Harrison Henderson from Southern a redshirt senior. Nije and Randle 6'10 200 if he ever signs and begins practicing with the team may have a rough learning curve against stronger and more experienced centers. And this isn't just limited to centers, ditto forwards as well. I like Heath's "long view" vs one and done.

I see the competition playing center as btw Njie and Okongo.
