True, PRT. Shouldn’t overlook or underestimate the possibility of returning players improving. I didn’t consider it in the debate with NYG. That said, NYG’s an intelligent poster. I even recommended him for Rhody GM/KB liaison earlier today. I might have to rethink that if he keeps disagreeing with...

PeterRamTime

We are going to be about a .500 team in conference and maybe slightly above that overall. As of now, my take anyway. Again, not good enough. I still hope we get another impact transfer which could improve that prediction. Bone, we have 4 openings left ? My wish list for 2 of the final 4 spots that ...

Per 247Sports.com, Tenn lost 7 from their Elite 8 team and added 3 from the portal so far. Between those 3 adds and 6 leftovers, I didn’t see a PG listed. Hard for me to think they can’t nab a good, experienced PG from the portal with their NIL and PT available at that position. I must have have ov...

PeterRamTime

If he could is a big if, NYG. I don’t think we can yet as I don’t believe we are able to from an NIL standpoint at this point in time. We are paying for the core and the 3 new players we brought in already. Do you know that we have the NIL money available to add 3 more talented starters in addition...

PeterRamTime

NYG, 4 more starter quality players would be great from our perspective. But, I don’t think 4 more would come here as it would be too crowded for PT. Plus, not sure we can even afford them. Also, yes it is too late for one of the core starters we have now to enter the portal since it’s closed but b...

Yeah that ain't happenin. I think he'd refuse and he just isnt a physical player. Wouldn't work out.

I would have to go back and check, PRT, but I thought Zapala looked to have more spring in his jump. I could be wrong as my memory isn’t as reliable as in the past. Anyway, some very good stats referenced by you above. I personally favor a more springy center but those stats against high level comp...

https://youtu.be/Br11bGOOVNE?si=wD4dtggphm1ttISw Thanks for posting the vid, PRT. Did a first quick viewing of the first part. The good: He’s big, has a nice touch, has a nice stroke from 3. The not good: He is slow off the floor, doesn’t have much lift. He's definitely a little slow, but solidly s...

Yall got my boy Bazooka Joe! I like that pick , always good to have QB depth , and he could be a trade chip How did you like him as the Vols QB ? I didn’t get to see him Okay I'll start with positives He has the strongest arm in the history football. Not exaggerating. He is super-human. Great size ...

A 7 footer who can run and rebound, that is.
Yes. I can't remember his name, but we had a 7 footer a few years back who couldn't walk and chew gum at the same time.

He was just a big flimsy stick

Still hit a 3 though!

Wilborn is someone I thought we would be showing interest in. 6’8” All-NEC Freshman forward from CT, who averaged 10.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.6 blocks. A10 would be the perfect move up for him. https://x.com/theportalreport/status/1785304991391248841?s=46&t=X3tFdRrojFvLeOstPVm...

This signing does not move the needle for me at all. If this is the best we can afford then we are truly screwed. Of course it might not be all about money. Could be Archie just can't close the deal for better players. Either way, not good. It's clearly not the best we can afford since we already g...

Arch find us 2 more rotation bigs ! And that's really the last step after Drissa committed. PG Bassy, Lawrence, Ways SG Lawrence, House, Cam SF/Wing Green, Traore, Farrell C Fuchs Green and Traore could play the 5 in certain situations, but it looks like we'll add two true 5's now. After that? Not ...

FG% of 43 and 3 pt % of 29 isn't good. Maybe you think it is. He took 28 shots in the game he got 41. If he's doing that here, we're in big trouble. I've seen this posted by a few people. A FG percentage of 43% is not as poor as you and others are making it out to be. While shooting around 29-30% f...

You guys are OK with getting backups for guys who finished in 12th place in the A10? That's what our new practice facility and increase in NIL money gets us? Wow, expectations have become really low.

Well they could be in play. We bess not have Traore backing up Fuchs, so we could (should) pick up two guys that can play center. 0.0% chance a 6'8 215 lb kid is playing center I wouldn’t say 0. I could see a situation where he is the 5 at times - depends who else we bring in. He was used to spell ...

re: Miranda, I don't think he's posted a list and to me its unclear if he's actually interested in ever playing college ball again. He could simply be "in the transfer portal" to see if someone is willing to give him significant NIL money. He's played three games and 16 minutes across two...
