Re: let's talk '21

Good stuff. I like what I see from the two of them. High motors and a high chance to develop into a multi year player. Every program needs those types. Veterans you can lean on because of their experience. My question is on DaRon Holmes. I saw that he's likely to commit somewhere before the early si...

Re: let's talk '21

I like what I've seen from the little tape I could find from KJ Allen. My biggest question is how many spots do we think will be open next year? Do we think Azuolas Tubelis will be a oad? Without him leaving I see probably 3 or 4 spots open as someone is always bound to rather leave early or transfe...

Re: let's talk '20

So I saw yesterday we made the final 8 for Alex Tchikou, a 6'11 forward out of Phoenix. He announced this after we reclassified to this year's recruiting class. Only scenario I see us be able to get him is if BWill leaves and T. Tubelis becomes a walk-on. What are the odds we get him and what does t...

Re: let's talk '20

Miller just said that we need to get BWill back on his media discussion a little bit ago. Personally I don't see that happening as that would mean someone like Ira Lee would be leaving the program or someone else would be losing a scholarship. Thoughts?

OADs in moderate consumption are good for your program i.e. to fill a hole on a very good team already (Gordon, Stanley, Lauri). Going heavy on them however...yeah. That's what I was thinking.
