Kennesaw State’s men’s basketball program added another player to its roster on Wednesday when Memphis transfer Damien Wilson was deemed eligible to play immediately.
Wilson was sitting in class when KSU men’s basketball head coach Jimmy Lallathin texted him the news. “Turn up,” Wilson replied simply.
