6-foot-9, 200 Arinze (Bishop O’Dowd) Chidom is transferring out of Washington State.
He redshirted in Pullman as a freshman so it looks like he’ll lose a season of eligibility while sidelined this time but hopefully he’ll get back on the court in mid-year 2019. Might somewhere in the Big West or Mountain West be a better fit?

Verbal Commits: “2019 City College of San Francisco (CA) F Malcolm Johnson has received an offer from UC Davis.”
Johnson is a 6-foot-5 wing out of Bakersfield who played at Cal State Dominguez Hills last season. He is averaging 15.4 points and 7.6 rebounds this season, shooting 64%, 50% and 72%.
Ethan Kassel: “No, they haven’t played quite the schedule that University or Stuart Hall have, but with a 56-49 win over Vista Murrieta, Lick-Wilmerding is 9-1. Junior guard Allen Wilson can do everything and a healthy Zach Johnson in the post is a force to be reckoned with.”
Coaching Changes: “No one is talking about this, but if not for a 4 point loss to Buffalo, Kyle Smith and USF would be undefeated and possibly ranked in the Top 25
Has this happened since Bill Cartwright played there?
If I’m an AD at a big school where it’s hard to win, Kyle is on my short list.”
This was a great promotional idea and San Francisco jumped right on it:
