Would he be a freshman? And does he have any other offers?
He's a high school point guard. Sacred Heart and Grambling have offered.

I've heard Seth Rouse may get a scholarship for his final year. That would give RMU four scholarships to use when the period opens, presuming no one else transfers (two grad transfers gone plus Washington and Burke).
Atem Bior would be one. Definitely need a PG. Definitely need a big man who can play the 5. Then maybe best player available or a guy who can earn some minutes on defense before developing an offensive game.

Greg Shead could *still* come...
But regardless we have 2 open spots with him & 3 without him.
& I agree that getting a big man for the 5 spot is big.
Ya weird...u would think Toole wouldn’t want to give him another year of scholarship if he never played or even sat on the bench.
Looks like RMU got a commitment from a prep school kid.
Elijah Kiah El is originally from Philadelphia, went to a couple of the Philly public schools (George Washington and Martin Luther King). RMU has had a lot of success with Philly kids, with the most recent obviously being Koby Thomas.
Covenant College Prep is run by the same guy who used to run Coastal Academy, which is where Dachon Burke spent a year.

Good info. Have to like big bodied athletes that are matchup problems!
Elijah Kiah El and Koby Thomas were AAU teammates on Team Philly

Wow you guys are great at finding information. Hopefully that is an indication that Koby has no intention of going anywhere.
Nice info, GoRMU!
From what I’ve heard, Koby is staying at RMU.
This commitment here helps comfirm that.
Losing Burke stinks but keeping Thomas would be/ is big as he might have the most potential/ highest ceiling out of anyone on the team this year. Not to mention we really need his rebounding skills & put backs to stay in games.
Glad to find this tweet

Robert Morris scoops up one of my personal favorites from the 2018 class in 2017 Martin Luther King grad Elijah Kiah-El. Wouldn't be surprised if he leads the NEC in rebounding before too long

Good find!
I’ve seen him listed at 6-7...215lbs so I guess he’d play the 4 or 5 for RMU.
I couldn’t find any decent videos of him tho but good to hear that people think he’s good.
Another prep school kid. I like the approach. Prep school kids have had a year out of high school to maybe mature physically and mentally.
Here's his old HS highlights.
Maybe a Dachon Burke replacement. Bigger guard who can attack off the dribble, play above the rim and shoot a little from outside.
Verbal Commits reports that 6'5 SF Cameron Wilbon has committed to RMU. Interesting that he does not appear under RMU but does show under NEC, with tomorrow's date. No other offers shown. Guessing that the two recruits over the past few days were just cleared by NCAA to be eligible. Welcome Cameron.
We still need a PG.

Like the addition!
Hopefully he got a little quicker since this last video but he seems to have a solid stroke & seems to be big enough to get a decent amount of boards.
PG article says one scholarship left. I am assuming Malik still has his scholarship and the speculation that Seth Rouse will get one for his senior year could be correct. That should leave one available to presumably use for a point guard.
Verbal Commits has been slipping a bit lately. I don't think they've reported Burke's well documented release, and Cameron Wilbon tweeted his RMU offer almost a month ago and he wasn't listed until he accepted.
Ya they can be...
I’m just saying that about those 2 players. We haven’t heard anything about them either tho.
Personally, if Sheard quit his team during the season, I'd be shocked if they took him unless there was a really good reason for him to do that. Sounds too much like another PG until recently associated with the program.
While Ashmeade is unlikely to come back, has he officially left the team? Just wondering.
& Shead is not locked into RMU at all as it was only an Verbal commit & not an LOI.
We still have nothing on the status of these two people from either RMU or their affiliated sources (trib, post gazette, etc...).
