I don't think it matters, it doesn't sound like King is a fan of the swing offence. Has it ever been confirmed that Will runs a swing offense, or do people just assume that because of his dad? I think he did say he would be running the swing either in his press conference or one of Venci's articles.

Because he was gonna stay at school, he didn't go in any portal so that's probably why it's under the radar.

Remember, Will would be the 2nd longest player on Team and we haven't heard anything from him at all so that should help confirm things.

Coach Ryan should put "Help Wanted for Big Men: Guaranteed playing time; Graduate transfers preferred" signs along I-41 and I-43.

It is really important to keep our expectations in check for available big men at this time for 2020-21. Short of Ben Vander Plas grad transferring to GB most of the guys that might be available are likely to be role players or still need to grow into their game.
Chevalier would likely be a nice fit for the style of basketball GB will be playing moving forward. The tempo should be more to his pace but the system would still feature his shooting. Guys at his size that can shoot like he can are not easy to find. I am sure he has good reasons for his decision and has discussed with those he trusts. With that said you don't get many chances to be a D1 basketball player. You don't want to wake up in a decade or two and wonder what might have been.
Coach Ryan did a good job in the press conference of focusing on the positive. I took some of what he said as coach speak for not everyone is fully committed or not everyone will be welcome to come back. As far as he knew at that time all decisions weren't made. If he says some guys aren't coming back the next logical question is which ones. That starts to take away from the excitement of a new start and focuses on a less desirable but equally click worthy rumor mill.
Coach Ryan definitely said they would be implementing some of the style that he knows will work. However, that doesn't mean it will be all old school bleed the clock down and pass 6 times to find a set shot. Basketball has evolved and the swing offense certainly can allow guys to make plays, they just have to be smart about the plays they are going to make. We aren't going to see a guy come down and jack up a shot without passing, even if that is a shot they can make.

It sounds like the players will be returning to campus in the next week and a half or so, so that should help to clear up where we’re at roster-wise.

Have to wonder if there are any guys WR was recruiting at Wheeling that he thinks highly enough to take them here? Linc did just that with Anthony and Avery Brown. Minus the off the court stuff, they, especially Anthony, were pretty solid players, who were D2 recruits. I couldn't find anything on the VerbalCommits page for Wheeling, in terms of incoming guys, but it might be something to keep in mind.
EDIT:
After doing digging on Twitter, I've found a few names of Wheeling 2020 commits
Darrell Jenkins, 6-7 PF, Cecil CC (NJ?)
Justin Walker, 6-3 G, Advanced Prep Academy (GA)
Trey Stoffer, G, West Lafayette (OH)
Andrew Taylor, G, Pearce HS (TX)

That's a wide net Will cast looking for talent at Wheeling. Think about -- east coast, Southeast, Midwest, and Texas... That just tells he's willing to look into every corner in this country and abroad.

Would be very surprised if we don’t add one more player before the season begins. Then bank the other scholarship for next year.
