Grad Transfers and Marijuana Use

[StepbackCity]

Are we listing just anybody or guys we are actually looking at?

I would like to see us bring in a big body. Like 6’11+ who can take up space in the middle and be a defensive presence when Carlton gets in foul trouble or needs a break while we recruit our longer term solution. Almost every high major team carriers this type of generic tall, long presence in the middle we havent had one in a little while.

Shakur Juiston from UNLV will likely be a grad transfer. Sat out this year with injury. Put up great numbers last year. Double double I believe. Also from jersey.

That's a really solid list. Speaks for itself. Sign me up--we need talent anywhere we can get it.

I like how Tucker can score efficiently in a variety of ways.

Scoring 20.3 ppg, his scoring breaks down to:

55% and 7.6 ppg from 2P shots
41% and 7.2 ppg from 3P shots
78% and 5.5 ppg from FTs.

Which means he doesn’t take a ton of shots and he isn’t ball dominant

He would be great for Bouknight. He could allow him to have a real freshman year instead of needing him to be great for us to be successful.

He is a shonn miller clone with less shooting. His freshman year he was a killer. Going to need him to develop a shot wherever he plays.

Keep your eye on Asante Gist from Iona. Played for Hurley at St. Anthony, from Jersey City, has already transferred once. If we decide to go the grad transfer route for a PG he is our most likely option imo. Excellent ball handler.

Hurley left St. Anthony in 2010 and Gist didn't graduate until 2016. Did he play for him as a sixth grader?

You do know hes talking about Bob Sr.?

Dan Hurley never coached St. Anthony. I was talking about his father. Thought that was obvious.

Hurley left St. Anthony's in 2017 when the school shut down.

Christ, such a snarky post, has gone horribly for you.

This should be grad transfer priority #1. We desperately need another experienced PG behind AG.

How did so many schools let him go from FGCU to Little Rock?

Tucker isn’t a PG he’s more like a SG/Wing.

Yeah, I know, I'm up all night worrying about it. So sad, I was just trying to be one of the boys.

Shittu with Drew gone?

 

[uconnfan68]

I wouldn't be thrilled with this. Short, below-average shooter who turns it over a lot.

Sounds like a good fit.

 

[brihman]

All these transfers doesn’t it feel like transfers make up half of the recruiting action?

Shittu with Drew gone?

Says he will not transfer
