Welcome Joel Kabimba

[mkaufman1]

Sorry, not trying to be an asshole on the welcome thread, but with Kaufmann moving posts around all willy nilly in real time it makes it confusing.

Welcome Joel! Walk on or scholarship, doesn't matter. We love you just the same.

sorry, just trying to have all the convo here. I won’t move anything more, I promise.

welcome Joel! we recruited Joel out of high school...He was the Independent league School state player of the year out of Middleburg Academy..

Joel announced he transferred to a JUCO 28 days ago. This 100% smells like preferred walk-on

 

[p8triotfan4life]

according to 247 sports, Joel had offers from Elon, JMU, UMES, Norfolk State, Radford, Stetson, and Youngstown State out of high school...Lil Dave showed interest which is why he might've already had a connection with Simpkins...

He graduated from a Loudoun County private school. Maybe he decided it would be better to come close to home and finish a four-year degree instead of chase another scholarship?

Pandemic Doesn't Slow Basketball’s Joel Kabimba - Stetson Today

The sophomore forward spent most of the summer as a last man standing of sorts

Story on our newest addition that I think is worth checking out.

I tend to agree with @Petey Buckets or whoever posted that he might not have any scholarship offers... he took 4 months to then commit to JUCO and then to us 28 days later

Mbaye out, officially. Going pro overseas.

Ugh that sucks hard

 

[Petey Buckets]

SMOKING GUN: no "great day to be a Patriot!" tweets from the staff. That's definitive imo, he's a walk on.

Well this turned out about as poorly as possible

It does but I love that KE had a Plan B ready.

Welcome Mr. Kabimba!

Welcome Mr. Kabimba!

Glad to see KE filling all scholarships unlike DP

It’s a defiantly a bummer, but glad KE filled the spot..

 

[GMUgemini]

Well, the likelihood of Gaines being out starting 4 next season went up by a factor of 10.

And Welcome Kabimba.

 

[By George.]

There’s no positive spin here…

 

[FreeGunston12]

Welcome Joel! We will be better off for next season with another experienced big anyways. The highlight tape looks pretty smooth too.

 

[GMUgemini]

two ways to spin it. One, KE pivoted really quickly and filled Mbaye’s spot fast. And two, we have three bigs now for next year, which is a good thing.
