Basil taketh and Basil giveth.
The sudden dismissal of Basil Smotherman on Sunday opened up a scholarship for the 2017-18 season. That spot has now been filled:
Stefanovich is a 6’5” 184 pound shooting guard from Crown Point Indiana. He is rated as a 3-star prospect on Rivals, but he is basically the sniper that Matt Painter has coveted for ever class these past few recruiting cycles. Xavier was his best offer to date, but he was basically on Biggie watch until now as the most likely to be offered if Swanigan went to the NBA.
