Sounds like the *potential* is there for this to be a big upgrade. Let's certainly hope so.
I wonder if anyone on the coaching staff have a prior connection to this kid? Not every day a kid from California ends up in Florence, ha.

Not every day a kid from California ends up in Florence, ha. Dearmon is the connection. Offered him in 2019 when Dearmon was at Kansas. There's been several ties to the P5 transfers that have had ties to Dearmon. That will eventually run out, and then we will see how well Dearmon and this staff recruits transfers. Overall they have been way better than previous staff at recruiting.
