Very good basketball IQ , passer and ball handler. Not in the same league as a perimeter shooter as Brea and Hausen but would certainly be a great fit.
Pitino proved that scholarships limits are no longer limiting in the days of NIL.
Bre, Hausen and Reed would be just as great IMHO. I think folks are sleeping on Singare, he can certainly contribute as a rotational 5 next year.
Great interview, Jared!
Still working through the decision process with his family.
Great to hear that he spent the day with Joey California on Sunday. Husky family forever!
To be fair, Coach Hurley said in post championship press conference that he has two players looking at the MBA draft. No one has definitely said that both Castle and DC are gone. If money is the main factor, DC will go and it will be well deserved.
Another year would also risk injury.
However...
Samson hit some short jumpers/floaters against St. John's at home. He has a decent shooting stroke but will need to work hard to make it an effective part of his game (I agree that this will be a critical part of his development going forward if he wants to play professionally).
slow and always plays drop coverage but has clever ways to get his shot off, is very good from 3 and is an elite passer. He is consistent at boxing out as well.
I agree with DC establishing good defensive position behind Edey and gong straight up on challenges, particularly in the first half. Properly boxing out Edey to limit his O Rebounds will be a big key. Whoever plays 4 for them will also crash the boards very hard, so AK will also need to box out...
Watching the Utah State Vs Purdue round of 32 game. Two phantom fouls called on Utah State’s Osobor when Edey stumbled on the inside and then a third when Edey bumped into his chest. Those three fouls really titled the game in Purdue’s favor.Two earlier fouls were called against Utah State’s...
Jones is actually not slight but is pretty well built and plays physical defense.
Darth Kylo-Ren plays a very physical style and pounds on defenders to get offensive rebounding position. He will be a tough matchup for AK on defense. It hopefully the refs will pay attention and not let him get...
Loyer is the most egregious flopper in college basketball and for some reason that is obscure to me the refs love to reward him for his flopping. So we are doomed!
I'm not sure why folks are fretting about scholarship limits.
For a player that Coach Geno wants, the NIL will certainly be considerably more than the tuition payment, so they could be walk-on
IMHO number one criteria that has led to our success the last two years is basketball IQ. This year we have six with BBIA in spades. Wolf also seems to have a high BBIQ. Lack of athleticism may limit his minutes but not his usefulness.
Pitino proven that with NIL the 13 scholarship limit...
Commentators on previous games said Coach Oats is extremely analytics driven and will not let anyone except Estrada shoot mid-Range shots. If that holds true it would make them very easy to game plan against but we shall see and of course we are doomed, clearly DOOMED!
Very tough matchup. Hard for DC to play drop coverage when Hawkins shoots 41% and Guerrero 45% from three. DC will have to avoid fouls and make the chip shots. Team will have to avoid live ball turnovers and rotate back hard on missed shots. Fight the hubris, so we are doomed, clearly DOOMED!
