Transfer portal opens today.

I think that is hopeful thinking. Sears and several players were on last years team and that team had to be begged to play d as well. CNO has also gone after the top talent both recruiting and transfer. Just missed on them other than a decent recruiting class just not stellar.

The pursuit of AJD dismisses this theory IMO...

When UNC doesn't get it turned around, they'll be beating down his door.

FIFY

Here is some of his highlights and he looks ideal for CNO's system. Has a good 3 pt stroke and quick to the basket. Needs some work in the weight room and training table. I like this pick-up.

Really like how he attacks the rim and he is very fluid/athletic. Think Stevenson but his complete opposite...

Three years of eligibility left so his best basketball is still ahead of him. He really does look like a great fit for what we do but we will need to get him beefed up some.

6'8" 180 lbs is what he is listed at.

He needs some midnight milkshakes!!!

Yeah, Stevenson was long and stiff as a 2x4; the opposite of fluid!

 

[CrimSonami]

Like his high-quick release on the 3-ball. He might be still growing too.

Honestly, I’m wondering if it’s not going the route of lower profile players. Last year, there were a lot of egos on the team - and when you have to sit your seniors down and talk to them about defensive effort, there’s an issue. I’m wondering if Oats isn’t more interested in coaching up hungry, less talented players as opposed to guys who have repeatedly been told they’re the best thing since sliced bread. I’d love to ask CNO “which team did you enjoy coaching most - the 24-25 team or 23-24?”

You’re exactly right. Coach the guys and develop them instead of running around every year trying to find the next big thing in the portal. This new day of college sports has gotten to the point it will be difficult to remember exactly who played for Bama because they weren’t here for over 10 minutes.
