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.

Blake Vedder

He was just a big flimsy stick

Still hit a 3 though!

On April 1st I was told the store would be open within 2 weeks...so that hasn't happened. The other stuff I know takes time and it's basically like a new collective.

I just wanna get a hat and maybe a shirt :/

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 ...

Solid commitment video!

He looks pretty thick to be 215.

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.

On here is the list. Continuity, eligibility issues and injuries have absolutely zero impact on a teams performance. Don't watch highlight films. Don't watch a transfers full game.

We have.

PeterRamTime

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 ...

PeterRamTime

I'm cool with it. I would not be cool with it if they expect to play him as the 5. Him backing up Green makes sense though. Guy that comes in, plays hard, two years at a Big East achool and is a good teammate. I figured we would get someone like that. Doubted we add anybody that would challenge Gre...

Could be a fine bench piece, but i would still really like a big that could make an instant impact.

Just as Kenny Johnson was kept secret as well The only reason we found out about Johnson was someone found a blurry picture from a URI practice and somehow identified it was Johnson. True. But I’m referring to Johnson going to Georgetown. He was there working and un-announced at Georgetown for a wh...

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...

I would like to think it's only a matter of time before we are good and can stay good on a consistent basis. Some on this board are convinced it will happen. I'll still on the fence as to whether IF it will happen, and how long will it take? I should live in Missouri. It's called the "Show Me ...

Gotcha... My guess is they are keeping him quiet so that he can work in the phones in an almost incognito way as the portal gets ready to close down on May 1. I am not sure what purpose that serves. I just feal that a deal hasn't been finalized yet. No information has even been leaked out yet, just...

I saw him play several times at the Pinnacle Bank Arena and was really impressed with his speed and basketball IQ. Having him and Bassy in the backcourt, we can really play up-tempo.

Plenty enough size to guard 1's and 2's and some 3's.

Hate to interrupt the daily doom spiral, but there is absolutely no reason to believe that it will or should be impossible for A10 programs like us to be consistently good. If you have the program infrastructure in place, the right coach, and can become a winning program that is attractive to playe...
