LINKS: Who is Transfer Forward Chudier Bile?

A pleasant surprise for Hoyas fans on Monday was the announcement that graduate transfer Chudier Bile is coming to the Georgetown Hoyas. After searching high and low all spring, Patrick Ewing added a new 6’7” 200-pound forward.

The 21-year-old is coming by way of the Northwestern State Demons. Bile impressed in the Southland Conference last season, leading his team in points per game (14.3), rebounds (7.6), and blocks (1.5), and being named to the second team all-conference team by the coaches.

Bile made about about 4.6 of 9.7 field goal attempts each game, including making about 1.3 of 3.3 three-point attempts. Chudier Bile got to the free-throw line better than anyone on his Demon team, and hits about 73% of them. He did turn the ball over almost 4 times per game (in 24 mpg), with a couple games with 5+ giveaways (below), while playing what appears to have been an uptempo offense. Bile has professional aspirations and previously studied business. Ewing has his work cut out for him with adding 6 new guys during the modern work-from-home era.

Prior to a year-in-residency at Northwestern State, Bile had played at Otero JC and Denver South High School in Colorado. The transfer sit-out was due to originally transferring to Bradley for a summer before leaving for NSU in 2018.

In addition to the Denver area, it sounds like Bile also called Sudan his home. Announcers have pronounced his first name “Choo-dee-ay” and his last name as simply “Bile.”
