BB Recruiting 2023 F Baye Ndongo commits to Rutgers Basketball
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Man, this mornings article had him at 6-9, now tonight he's 6-10. As fast as he's growing could be 7-5 by the time he enrolls. 
The 3 is the small forward… he could play the 4 if he and Woolf are both in at the same time. If he is the back up plan for Cliff he will be playing 5 Center. Good problems to have!!! Welcome to Rutgers young man!
Based on that “pick up the ball outside the three point line finish”, he’s NBA ready.
247 new rankings released today. Ndongo gets ranked as #150 in 2023 class.
10 guys in the conference ranked higher than him.
I love players with a chip on their shoulder.
For whatever reason 247 has him rated lower than all the other services.
Just as important is the type of fit these two guys will be on the team. I trust that Pike and coaches can work wonders with the talent they’re getting here.
Gavin signed during the early period in November. Ndongo and Davis committed after that early signing period so they need to wait until the regular signing period April 12 – May 17, 2023.
While everyone is understandably focusing on the present team, should be noted Baye won a national championship with Putnam Science and was one of the most impressive players.
He's still underrated
Baye and Gavin are underrated.
Everything I see from Baye says top 50, versatile, Pikiell-type player.
One starter, one rotation guy/maybe starter and both better offensively than anyone but Cam from this year.
We're going to be an entirely different team next year in a very good way

It would be nice to have a few guys who can knock down some jumpers
Gavin Griffiths! He will also free up Cam more since we will have another 3 point threat
Agreed, plus I think Simpson will see a dramatic improvement with a year of S&C and playing in the system.
Cliff is the difference between a good season and a great season. He would have every chance to show off his skills and he will have much better pieces surrounding him, the question he needs to ask is " Will I grow more as a player at Rutgers or the G League. I had read that for some reason he is not allowed to accept NIL deals, if that is true, he needs to do what is best for him
Can't wait 'til Baye is signed.
Foreign students can't legally "work" here. Which is what he'd be with an NIL. Though I'm convinced teams have probably figured out ways around this by now.
Like the CBS segment mentioned he donated 25k of his own money to the Salvation Army.
I think theres also another work around where they can get the NIL money if they aren’t in the US when they get it.

Weird rule. We are handing out hundreds of millions to people who have come here illegally but he can’t earn any money?
Yup and we're taking a summer trip this year...I think theres also another work around where they can get the NIL money if they aren’t in the US when they get it.
