Rudi Williams Top 8

As long as we also got castle to reclass he checks all the boxes

We say bench. But right now he’s be the second ball handler. 20-25 minutes a game easy

Exactly, even if his shooting percentages drop by 10% because of the tougher competition, he would still be a good option because we need another ball handler.
 
Still think that he could start, or get starter minutes in a small ball lineup that moves hawk to the 3 and Andre to the 4
 
Who the heck is this guy? Lol. Strictly a one year depth piece I hope.
 
He's a traveling man - thats for sure
Why do these kids get so damn impatient?
If he was applying for a job (not as a player) would this bother you? Lets be honest
If I was Dan Hurley I'd be digging deep into the background of this transfer
He can shoot but if he starts to erode team chemistry..............................

I don’t know if he can shoot it. He shot 29% from 3 and 40% overall the previous year playing against better comp for K-State. This has to be strictly a depth move for us.

Agreed. His “final 8” is also pedestrian. Shouldn’t be a projected starter for us.

Pretty sure we aren’t getting him

I’ll interpret this as you knowing something. Correct me if I’m wrong. Do you know where he’s leaning, or have you just heard we’re not in the lead?

What about that offer list is decent?? Pretty much us and a bunch of dregs.

That his Top 8, not necessarily his offer list. A google search brought up OK St, Memphis and Florida all having reached out to him as well, I don’t know the full offer list but those teams reaching out show there’s interest from other decent schools.
 
You gotta love this place.

Gaffney, Diggins and CFjr transfer and the Boneyard looses their collective .

Player whose probably pretty clearly better than those 3 puts us in his final 8 and we've got people hoping he's just being brought in for depth purposes?

I don't know man. I'm glad some posters on here don't run the program.
 
Would you rather give 25 min / starting role to this guy and have Hawkins come off the bench? Or vice versa?

There is risk to not giving Hawkins starters minutes.

Stop it. Hawkins is starting no matter who transfers in here. We have 4 locks right now. Newton/Hawkins/Jackson/Sanogo. Hurley can either go 4 guards and slide Jackson to the 4, which opens up another starting spot for a guard like Rudi. Or he can go "traditional" and Karaban/Samson start.

Rudi has zero impact on Hawkins starting. They don't even play the same position lmao. Hawkins is not a ball handler, Rudi is.

So you think he spurned Ok St, Memphis and Florida to include George Mason, Wichita State and BYU?? C'mon please

Yeah that’s why I’m asking the question.

Hurley was quoted saying he wants to return to a 4 out offense with a traditional stretch 4 (i.e Karaban or Samson if he can develop a deep shot). Jackson will be moreso a guard than a forward, handling the ball like we saw last year.

So let me ask again, with Newton (1), Jackson (3), Karaban/Johnson (4), and Sanogo (5) who would you want playing starters minutes at the 2?

He answered that question Hawk. Rudy is a pt. You have AJ at the pt so Ruby sits.

Huh? You aren't making sense. If Hawkins is starting, and Jackson, and Newton, and Sanogo, you think there's an additional starting spot for a ball handler? Hawkins is 175 pounds (Dan said they want him at 195), he isn't holding down the small forward spot. A team with Rudi at the 2, Hawk 3 and AJ 4 is puny and would get crushed in the Big East. Hawk is working on his handle, he's the SG. Johnson is likely the other starter at the 4. There's no starting spot left on this team. There are minutes, sure.

Hawkins is 185 pounds (started last season at 170) so you're wrong there. And yes, there is an additional starting spot if you slide Hawkins to the 3 and Jackson to the 4. Jackson is a point forward at this point. He can play the 4 because he's an elite defender. Who cares if he is slightly undersized, he's the best athlete on the floor every single night. He can guard anyone
