Lobo hoops: Sandia Prep alum to walk on, Pitino says roster is set

Recruiting is never really done in college basketball, or so they say.

But, even in an era of seemingly never-ending player transfers and signings, it does seem that Richard Pitino and the UNM Lobos’ 2022-23 roster is about as complete as it can be in an offseason in which the team only had two open scholarships to fill — which itself is a rarity in college basketball spring/summer recruiting anymore.

“Well, I thought today was a good time to get together with the roster being as set as a roster can be in today’s world,” Pitino said Wednesday morning at the beginning of a schedule press conference.
