Tate Sage

Apologies if I missed this somewhere, but sounds like he'll be announced as a signing soon. Class of 2025, 6'7" shooting guard from Oklahoma who committed to Drake.

Nice so he's signed on to Drake and would need to be released from their LOI I suppose... Ben sure has a type that's for sure. 6'4-6'8 guys that can all handle shoot and defend. Can't seem to get enough of em.

Not sure when he signed but if McCollum left after he signed, he can transfer without needing to get released from his LOI. Unless I'm crazy?

If he plays tight defense he will be known as Sagebrush.

Read an article saying that Sage and this guy, Saadi, were both Drake commits under BM at Drake for this fall. Both have decommitted and looking for new homes. Saadi is 6'9" and from Estonia.

The plot thickens. Found this with a little more research this morning.

Saadi played last year as a post graduate at Sunrise Christian Academy outside Kansas City. I'm sure we all remember that new assistant coach Barnwell coached there two years ago before moving on to Texas Tech. So we can assume that Barnwell knows him well.

I found this little blurb on a Sunrise article:

Simm Marten-Saadi (6'9'' Forward). Marten-Saadi is quickly becoming one of the hottest names in the postgrad landscape due to his size and skill. Sam brings athleticism and toughness to the team with a year of high-level experience already under his belt.
