Is he still on the roster? Deleted his commitment post, not at any team event, haven’t heard anything mentioned about him regarding workouts
Chris Nwuli
- Thread starter joeyklings
- Start date
He has a problem not related to basketball. Let this play and the info will be released hopefully soon.
The decision to release the info is not SHU's choice, it's the player's and that why you are not 'allowed to know'.
Please show some compassion to the player..

No one is not showing compassion. If I recall correctly, this is more info than was provided on the trove.
Yep seen this story before with Zion Harmon and Taurean Thompson to name a few. Hope all works out for the young man.
This is exactrly what I have been posting on the Trove. All I asked there is for us to show compassion until the info comes out.
I strongly admire what the player is doing and when it leaks I think most of you would as well.
Maybe I missed some posts about Nwuli on the trove. But I don't recall reading that this situation is admirable or that it is up for the player to announce.
I do remember the you will understand when it comes out but for now you can't know what I know but if you did you would understand
And also that it wasn't SHU related

I don't care the reason, I just want to know is he definitely gone? Is the roster spot open? May be a blessing in disguise with dozens of quality 5th year players likely to be declared eligible.
He is a legit 6’7” and has long arms and can get off the floor. His ceiling is higher than what the numbers tell you on offense, but he particularly has potential on defense once he learns to key on the right things. Some have said he is a bit quirky, but no one has said he is not a good kid. You should be rooting for him to resolve his issues and get to school.
That is the touring norm now...handlers dictate this not the kid attending....Sierra canyon and bishop Gorman no joke on comp played against
He has a VERY sick close relative that he will be taking care of 24/7. That leaves no time for BB. He's giving up a lot of money and his passion to be a caretaker to someone he loves.
That's about as admirable as it gets.
Now you know why the school would not release anything. They left in up to the player.

To me that's where the school always fails. Just report that Chris Nwuli will not be attending SH this year due to personal reasons. They can respect the player's privacy but they have a responsibility to the fans of Seton Hall to accurately and timely report roster updates, injuries and other significant news.
I don't believe the school has even officially announced or acknowledged that Sha has signed a new 6-year deal. Rothstein has been visiting schools for weeks and watching practices for weeks but Sha still shutting media out. Zagoria says he'll have a zoom call with media on August 4th. So we have 2 weeks to look forward to that. This stuff isn't difficult. Stop treating the fans and the local/friendly media like strangers.
Parents and advisors shuffle kids looking for the place where their kid can fulfill his destiny and be the next Mike jordan.
When my son was playing, 8th graders (good players)were transferring to a new school to repeat 8th grade, hoping it would help their hoops. My sons last game was against a team that started 5 9th graders, all good students repeating for hoops purposes, and they all played at highly rated Catholic HSs.
And one tried to transfer to mt sons school but they would not accept him. This is white suburbia btw.
It’s ridiculous. 4 years now. At one point wouldn’t even let Carino interview players for features. Players are media savvy now bc of social media. I can’t help but think Sha’s style of dungeon control may also play into guys leaving annually.
We’ve posted about this for so long. This is how you ingratiate the constantly shuffling rosters to fan base and drive interest.
Look at the new coach at PC. Total opposite.
I also thought Nwuli had lots of upside especially with the way Sha coaches and uses the 4-spot. Oh well.
Whatever is plaguing him, I’m a bit surprised playing and earning the NIL payout wouldn’t help, but I wish him the best.
Apparently the reported excuse is he is passing on the season and the NIL in order to "be a caretaker to a sick person he loves."
Time will tell. If he signs with another team somehow or shows up somewhere else that will make it clear if that was ever really the case.
If the school did say he was missing the year due to personal reasons do we honestly think the speculation would be any different. Sometimes we just have to respect privacy. I know it’s hard but it’s really the right thing to do. Hopefully he’s still enrolled as a student so he can take advantage of that great & underrated opportunity in this day and age. I wish Chris & his family the best & hope he comes back next year. He sure has his priorities in order.
