Koroma is a 6'7'' SF. listed as a 3 star chose Iona over Richmond, Oral Roberts and Grand Canyon. Interesting to say the least

Nice passer and defender for sure.

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t feel like any of these guys are really on our team until I see them practicing in the fall, and they may never practice in the fall.

Dwayne Koroma - 6'7" wing who can play the 1 thru 4. 3★ recruit Reportedly had an offer from Minnesota
Scouting reports:
"#2) Dwayne Koroma has come along strong in Bishop Walsh's frontcourt. Koroma is a solid forward at 6-foot-6 that’s slowly learning how to play either forward spot. He’s a native of Germany that hasn’t been in the states for too long but he’s made his mark with his ability to be a double-double machine in the paint. He makes his presence felt on both ends with his ability to play at the rim and crash the boards. He’s an intriguing prospect that uses his solid frame and athleticism well to impact the game. He’s drawn interest from some mid-major programs and with the current situation with the Coronavirus, he’s likely to receive some offers in the near future." - Big Shots Nation- Top 10 Available DC/Maryland 2020 Class - 04/19/20
"Koroma is a combo forward prospect with good size at 6-6. He has a lean frame and is a plus athlete. Offensively, for a wing he is fairly raw and has some developing to do there. He is at his best when getting out in transition and attacking the rim in the half court. The lefty is a below average shooter from three but his mechanics are fine. His handle can certainly tighten up and improve along with his decision making. He has upside on defense given his size, athleticism and versatility. Ultimately, Koroma projects as a MM wing with some upside as he is capable of improving as a slasher and as a spot-up shooter." Evan Daniels- 247sports- 05/08/2020

So just got a DM from a national recruiting guy about Koroma. Really likes how athletic the kid is. Very explosive with a very good handle for a kid his size. Passing is exceptional and solid defender. Needs to be more consistent with his perimeter game and gain strength. Smart athletic kid with great upside. Minnesota was recruiting him but had to cancel his visit when the virus broke out and he went back home to Germany.

I’m shocked that RP took a kid Minnesota lost a visit to via corona,I guess his son understands.

Intriguing roster with the bulk compiled through a review of highlight videos and I'll guess referrals. Prost!

Have not been able to find any HS stats so far, but he had a very solid season, including winning the MVP of a Christmas tournament. Koroma was also getting interest from Old Dominion, Rutgers and Dayton. If there was a AAU season this spring Iona doesn't get this kid.

Damn dude.. dont you thing there are enough debbie downers right now. Have a little faith. Not saying the roster won’t be better, just thinking it’s very much a work in progress. As for there being a season I think it’s probably going to happen but with no fans and be delayed, but you would have to have your head in the sand to be ignoring the possibility.
