Drue Drinnon, Redshirt Sophomore Guard-Smyrna, GA
Years of Eligibility: 2.5 (unless he is granted a waiver to get a full three years)
19-20 Stats: N/A
Best Performance: 7 points, 12 assists and 1 steal against the University of the Southwest on Dec. 30th 2018 (18-19 season)
Possible Destinations: No leads at the time of this publication. Drinnon is from Georgia but played a combination of his prep career at Pebblesbrook High (GA) and his senior season at the University School of Nova Southeastern (FL). So after moving back to the American southeast, we may see his name pop up in the Sunbelt or SEC with Georgia State and Georgia Tech near by.
Drinnon didn’t play a single minute for the Lobos this season as he had been back and forth between Albuquerque and his home in Georgia for a personal family situation. A decision was made to have him transfer out of the program in November and return home to be with his family. He stayed with the team until semester break when his scholarship was then picked up by Bayron Matos. Drinnon was a promising four-star prospect out of high school choosing the Lobos over several high major offers, this young man isn’t done playing college basketball just yet.

Jonah Antonio, Redshirt Junior Guard-Perth, Australia
Years of Eligibility: 1
19-20 Stats: 6.9 PPG 2.4 RPG & 2.1 3FGs in 25 games (13 starts)
Best Performance: 17 points, 5 rebounds & 5-9 from three against Purdue-Fort Wayne on Nov. 5th

Antonio is well traveled with a career that started at Mt. St. Mary’s in the NEC, followed by a stop in junior college at South Plains and most recently at UNLV where he re-teamed up with former fellow Mountaineer Elijah Mitrou-Long. The Australian can really shoot it, netting fifty-three shots from deep this season. Second on the team to only starting junior guard Amauri Hardy who started nearly every game while Antonio came off of the bench.

TJ Taylor played a very key role on an undersized Cowboys team in what was apparently Allen Edward’s last season in Laramie. The first domino to fall in what is usually a mass exodus between coaching changes, Taylor has also indicated the possibility of staying for his senior season via his twitter account. We can only wait to see what happens as he had a productive season season with the Cowboys, reaching double figures in ten games and grabbing six or more boards in eight.
