Seems like CWU had a tremendous recruiting season. Could someone post their new recruits and heights and any bio information? Thanks.

My biggest concern (besides the fact that the season is 5 months away) is the chemistry. If you have five stars who expect to take all the shots or only one who comes back on transition defense, you could have not only a mediocre season, but so much negativity that it sets you back a couple of seasons. But we're clearly on the upward track. It took some time, but we're in a good place.

CWU adds Arizona former 6A player of the year in Garrett Anderson, a 6'6" guard from SJSU. Central seems to do a really good job of bringing in division 1 transfers (Cameron McNeil, Samaad Hector)

Originally posted by CWU Wildcat Nation View PostWWU just picked up a JUCO transfer forward from Sacramento City College in Dajon Lott. Last season he averaged 21 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 blocks per game. Only had 1 other offer from Academy of Art, which seems surprising. Big much needed recruit for Western as they rebuild to replace 4 departed starters

UAA added a 6’3 guard from 5-22 Nebraska Kearney. Looks like depth to their rebuild of their guards.

CWU's coach is an exception, really targeting the D1 guys (Camron McNeil, Samaad Hector, Seth Dawson, etc). Just none so far in this current recruiting class.

Following VC on Twitter, I think they are dropping down. I just don’t think we are seeing them in the GNAC for whatever reason. I’m not sure if the GNAC coaches prefer JC kids who have been through the grind over D1 drop downs that think they are too good for D2? Or if they just haven’t been attracted to GNAC schools. The last D1 drop down UAA had was 3 years or so ago with Darius Guinn who quickly found himself out of the rotation and not playing. I’m not sure what the deal was but he never looked happy at UAA and left after one season.
All Division II programs are regional, not national programs and the only way they will get a fan base is to have some sort of local interest. At Western Oregon our theoryof late has been to go to California to get most of our players and its resulted in some pretty bad won-oss records. Last year the team had one in-state player on the roster in Benzel and I thought he was the best player. For decades our bread and butter has been the Northwest and I believe the reason the latest coaching staff is struggling is because they've gone away from that.
I am encouraged that they seem to be returning to that in this year's recruiting class. I'm not against getting some Californians but you can't have your entire roster that way and then lose games like crazy. I won't speak for Alaska Anchorage but there's some talent up there that could play at UAA and I think they should get it being the big university in the big city in the state. It's rather obvious.

I'm more encouraged with the WOU off-season. Most of the recruits haven't been announced and certainly not on verbal commits, except for one. I'm trying to stay positive. I like coach Pifer and want him to succeed. Last year was a disaster, I'll count that as a one-off. Just hoping they're competitive next year, I don't have super high expectations.
* Does anyone else think it's odd that D1 portal guys seeking more playing time don't drop down to D2? I'm not a portal fan, but I'd think if you wanted to get some minutes and play quality ball, play in the GNAC, or PacWest, or CCAA, if you're from the West. I always find it amusing with the 3 or 4 school portal guy who keeps going from mid-major D1 to another mid-major and just sits on a bench in a different town. Oh well.

UAA has signed a slew of players from the California JC league. Another Utah as well. Tough to list them all as VC has some that UAA hasn’t announced and UAA has announced a few that VC doesn’t have, Looks like 3 guards and two forwards one 6’6 and a 6’8 PF.
The Alaska movement appears dead as no signees or offers I've seen are in Alaska players.
Another interesting note, Dillon Barrientos is no longer on the UAA roster, And he’s disappeared from VC as well. VC doesn’t even show him as transferred like they normally do, he’s just gone. That’s a big loss if he’s moving on, I believe he had another year of eligibility. He played well last year.

Worst part of all these recruit updates is having to wait another 6 months to see the new team on the court, especially with last year's success.
