More Euro signings, a curious trend. The University of Colorado Buffaloes signed two players Wednesday, guard Thomas Akyazili (Belgium) and power forward Kenan Guzonjic (Bosnia) to add depth on a team which needs a turn-around season in 2015-2016.

Know anything about those two? Agree, CU is one of the few teams that hadn't recruited a good class w/in the conference, and didn't appear to be trending up. If good Euro's then very much needed.
