Transfer Portal Starting to Load

Idk if its been said yet but , Des Claude is my dream transfer. Its Romantic and a near perfect fit for Danny wants and needs. 6’6 combo guard avg 16-4-3 49% 31% 77% 6 fta pg.
Claude Ball Stew Reibe Reed
Thats a giant , dynamic , skilled ,versatile starting lineup. If the other freshman are hits and prob ankther 2-3 good transfers. Thats an amazing team.

We'll need more than a pg

It will be telling how our staff feels about Adams/Furphy/Mullins based on how aggressively we pursue 2/3s in the portal. We have enough bodies to cover the wings between them and Solo. But they may not be sold on everyone contributing right away.

A guy I know Hurley and crew recruited, I think would be an excellent fit at the 4 Taylor Bol Bowen is in the portal 6’10 athlete went for 8ppg 5.2 rpg 1.5 blocks while shooting 41.4% from 3pt on 70 attempts.

Only saw him once in person, but he was absolutely terrible in the NEPSAC AAA Final a couple years ago. Didn't play very hard either. Hopefully he's improved

We obviously need a PG but we also are in desperate need of a Guard/Wing that can consistently get to the rack. Not sure our Freshman guys have that in them at the College level just yet.

I think they made the mistake of banking on young guys developing last season. If I've learned nothing it's that you always bring in more talent. The cream will rise. If Adams and Furphy(Im assuming Mullins will produce) demand 't, playing time over a guy like Lindsay then they'll play and we'll be even deeper. If they dont, well then at least we have a lindsay to go to lol
 
One advantage we have this year is to work the portal in front of all these other programs still playing.
Don't think for a second that they aren't working the portal. They've been working it for months.

By they, I mean schools that have not yet been eliminated.

This. Going to need a starting PG, reserve combo guard, 3 and D wing, and starting 4 man. Here’s what I think that looks like:

PG: Transfer/Transfer
SG: Ball/Adams
SF: Mullins/Furphy
PF: Transfer/Transfer
C: Reed/Reibe

They’ll need a PG, a CG and a 4, at minimum.

I don’t think what we do in portal indicates how Dan Hurley feels about frosh at all, perhaps the class year in portal he goes after, maybe. You cannot win with freshman given lack of physical maturity. They are generally supplemental.

I don’t think Dan Hurley will ever go into another season feeling depleted of experienced guards again. Need an even distribution of wings and guards, with experience.

Needs to balance some classes too.
 
If the people you are competing with have more than you, things aren't equal and in 99% of the cases you will lose.

Good thing is we have Hurley who can get the most out of guys.

Wow, where do we begin on this???????????????????????????????????
2 straight rings and just took #1 seed to the brink. Yeah that guy stinks!

CG would be best. Don’t need a true point.

Either way, we need size across the board going forward.

We absolutely need a point guard. This season was a mess because of our point guard situation (our point guard graduates) and we can't ever let that happen again. We need a few things but a big proven point guard is #1 need.
 
I have a strong suspicion (and just received a little insight) that the portal may not be very good to us this year.

Our pockets aren't deep enough.
We are going to have to ante up to retain a lefty shooter.
