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.
Fordham expects to add more players going forward. Follow Adam Zagoria on Twitter Follow ZAGSBLOGHoops on Instagram Like ZAGS on Facebook Transfer portal commitment trackerA look at UC Riverside transfer Rikus Schulte:
