Fordham adds pair of Australian bigs
By ADAM ZAGORIA
Fordham has landed a pair of Australian big men.
Abass Bodija, a 6-foot-10 redshirt freshman from Brisbane, Australia, is transferring from UC Riverside to play for coach Mike Magpayo after visiting this weekend with Jack Whitbourn, a 6-11 Aussie from UCR who also committed.
One coach described Bodija as “very talented.”
The duo visited along with the previously committed Rikus Schulte, a 6-9 German from UCR who signed earlier this month.
