Yep. Paige is a nice sized wing. Bigger than white and Oliver.
Brandwijk is a big kid. Brandwijk got to see a hell of a game nice crowd of 6400+

Paige tweeted he cannot wait to play here. Brandwijk looks like Dolph Lundgren and will be huge in 2 years after he totally fills out. I see him being a 6-9 240lb wrecking ball who can shoot.

I don't know if there's any truth to the claim that it's between Siena and Vermont. There's certainly nothing in the media to support that. But whoever his other suitors are, Patsos needs to close the deal on this kid. Brandwijk is worlds better than Silas. I can seriously see Willem having a really good shot at starting at the 4 or 5 next to Bisping next season if he signs with Siena. Sign him and Taplin (or someone similar) and Siena is instantly back in business next season.

Vermont already has 5 LOI's, including a PF. I think the PF is the little brother of Duke/Charlotte's Josh McRoberts.

There's going to be a lot of negative recruiting against Siena though, given the lack of apparent scholarships. Still, I'm sure the staff reassured him of what we can't yet confirm - that there will be an open scholarship for him next season.

I heard Poole has been doing a great job with him as his host. Brandwijk really likes Poole. That stuff goes a long way in influencing a kid.

Brandwijk was hard to miss sitting courtside - BIG dude. Hope he enjoyed his visit, and that he could see that he'd be a valuable piece to this team. We could have used you out there, Willem.
