Hours before he was supposed to meet with the media Tuesday afternoon and address his Class of 2018 fall signing class, Western Kentucky coach Rick Stansbury added a major piece to it.
The Hilltoppers announced the signing Tuesday morning of 6-foot-7 wing Dalano Banton, a Class of 2019 prospect who chose to reclassify to the Class of ’18. The Rexdale, Toronto, Canada native is averaging about 30 points a game early this season for Redemption Christian Academy in Northfield, Mass.
Stansbury used those same statements this time last year to describe Class of 2017 fall signees Josh Anderson and Mitchell Robinson.
