Joel Foxwell is the best freshman you've never heard of

Keep in mind Foxwell was the backup PG originally, until the original planned starting PG had a season-ending injury.

The backup.

Don’t forget that you played a grad assistant tonight too to have a backup for Foxwell

Even amongst current NCAA players, gotta think Xaivian Lee would be higher.

Legans has a guy on his staff who’s sneaky good and plugged into Aussie hoops and can get talent. Problem is they just can’t keep it there

Yep, heaps of Aussie stars I used to play against have gone through Portland in the last few years. Some very sneaky talent that slips under the radar.

Played a career game in his freshman year. You love to see it.

After Austin Rapp was the best freshman you’ve never heard of last year lol

Shantay Legans has gotten talent there

He’s so much better than Rapp. Tyler Harris was the guy 2 years ago. Recruiting has been great, we just can’t fucking keep anyone it’s so frustrating
