Read a couple times Tennessee has been tampering / trying to get into portal all season. I’d suspect Lanier’s going there.

@NJHusky We had some kids we mentored a few years back that had tough experiences. One was in a French pro league that abruptly cut him for no reason, played In a few countries Before giving up and becoming a college assistant and now works for the Clips. another plays in turkey now, neither...

I do too, but so far no interest and the NIL guy seemed to indicate they don’t want to run Ball off With Shulga types with high usage, although Mahaney seems to be a big-time 2G as well.

Was about to chime in on this. JC was really hoping to have KEA one more year to pass the torch onto Taliek. Think it would have helped Taliek a lot, but he obv still had a terrific run at PG on one of the most fun 4-year stretches for me as a fan.

It’s some scrub (or at least they think he is) from USC Vince Iwuchukwu (sp). I know he was a big recruit a few years back never seen him play.

Agree 1000% if AK back not getting him. He handles very well, he has a unique skill set.

Seems like the Twitter prediction guy isn’t super accurate according to people that follow it closer than me.

We went to a lot of A&M games his last year there and watched most of them (mentored another player), he’s a totally different guy and more team-oriented vs trying to prove self. Kudos to Kimani. What a year Hass had, prob natl sixth man of year if not v close. Just a rock for us!

So many dudes going into portal with no regard for fit/winning/culture. Do you follow enough to get a good read on if winning/fit important or would taking Kansas‘ bag and playing behind all the wings they just got not matter?

Immediately after Tristen committed, Jahmir Young that ended up at Maryland cancelled his visit. Same spot.

I definitely miss this team and the games more than at any time in my 30 years as a diehard. They just played with such intelligence & skill. Was always in the ‘99 was the toughest MF’ers, ‘04 most talented (my fave team), but to me this was the greatest team, because all 5 guys could get 20...

Saw a game vs K State where he looked like a future lottery pick, has some big talent for sure.

I think Slamson was crazy impactful in a few tournament games where we played faster when he was in. Even Purdue when barely in he made an impact. Further, Def saw a lot less of him falling down all the time & unable to get rebounds as well (from earlier in season). Would imagine staff thinks...

You Nailed it. Not sure if mentioned but has a pretty nice lefty game around hoop a la Sanogo. Makes it look relatively easy. Really like this guy as a fit here. with our development he could be monster in a year or so.

No to another pg, hass is totally proven and Nowell is a dawg as well - he’ll play a lot like Kemba did in ‘09. need the 2/3s we add to be ball handlers/high iq like Cam was. Like 2 of them, one starter and bench Joey California type. Give me a big like Reed, high upside and beefy...

That’s first thing that jumped out def quick twitch for that size. Intriguing. Was on a dumpster fire team and still diving for loose balls like to see that!!!

that's good bro! so true!

is This real? He’s extremely impressive, skilled in the little bits I saw of USF this year. Appreciate the intel @BIIIG & anything Else u might know on it. Not sure where he fits, is rail-thin like 6’10 and a shade over 200 lbs. Stood out each time I’d watch, fills up stat sheet In variety of...

Can hausen dribble and defend or is he just lights out shooter? What’s his game like? He rarely played when I watched and they had a lousy O when I watched anyways.

Feel like I heard Bamba is back for them according to their peeps. Think it’s Hausen, Hurley loves him and he can play Joey C role. Dixon (2nd guess) would fit with, but not a rim protector at all. armstrong looks electric at times and a bad fit in Nova offense imo, hed be my third guess &...

Hurley was effusive in his praise of Hausen I felt like When gameplanning etc? Peeps saying Eric Dixon is it who knows.

Was sorta ambivalent seeing him 1-2x over summer & reading the analysis on here by guys I trust that weren’t that excited as well. He’s clearly improved a ton offensively & gotten stronger. He’s an absolute dawg (wish I could do it justice in words) & connector like Andre was. Outside shot is...

He’s been terrific for a while now after some struggles esp getting manhandled at points during reg season. His play has really has really ticked up several notches and gives us that strong 1-2 punch again.

would love this, Golden is solid, plug and play. Haven’t heard anything on my favorite player from their team, Alijah Martin. Anyone hear anything on him?

Allegedly St John’s convinced Gayle to portal and eaerly favorite. I would love a taller, high upside guard to pair w Hass/Nowell. Re shooting woes feel like he was dealing w injury last year. I know less about him than most of you just relaying info here. Still believe in Ball big time as well.

Appreciate the intel. Really like the videos I’ve watched at his BB IQ. Def below the rim i dont love but a lot to like. Very comfortable with the ball in his hands.

Id guess michigan since that’s where his coach went. He’s from Russia so he won’t mind the cold and leaving sunny south Florida.

I would guess Chatman from Ohio State going in portal too. Didn’t we recruit him? Prob not a fit anymore with Nowell coming in.

Agree. Feel there’s no way we even sniff around Storr, 5 high schools and 3 colleges in 7 years. culture is non-negotiable for us and a huge advantage vs $$$EC schools That just buy. New team each year like Arkansas and Florida (to lesser extent).

Pj Haggerty from Tulsa just entered, love his game but prob stays in the south. 20 ppg as freshman last year.

I live down here, UF has a machine gun culture they just recruit a ton of guys with no thought of culture or recruiting over. This guy was thought to be a lotto pick after this season but they took Clayton and pullin and his role diminshed. Def interested, he was very good as frosh. As always...

Yeah makes sense. would have to come as bench guy and likely not want to do that.

Ohio State NIL already tweeting about him allegedly. No rules anymore

What happened w Gavin Griffiths at Buttgers? Poor #s but I know they were awful offensively. Rumblings he’s going into portal. Would we want him (assume so) or is bloom off rose?

You hear St Johns everywhere fyi.
