I would add Pohto to this list. Skilled kid with a Big Ten ready body that won't mind playing backup 5 minutes unlike most transfers. I think everyone else sticks around with Ihnen being the question mark, we've really mismanaged that kid's development.

Carr looked well on his way to being Pitino's second first team all conference PG halfway through the season so it's hard to know how much more of an impact McKinley would have had as an individual. I doubt Pat is making this point but if he's talking about the bigger picture and referencing to...

Agreed, I think a top 3 would look something like Gates, Muss and Craig Smith in no particular order. I'd be pretty excited about any of those three.

Not really sure what I said that triggered this reaction from you but much of what I was talking about is basic recruiting strategy and that’s talked about across college athletics. I probably needed to be more specific in the point I was making so I appreciate the reply.

You're misinterpreting what I'm saying lol. My point was that if you want good players from other parts of the country, often times you have to prove you can develop your own (kids from your region) before recruits from other parts of the country show interest. It's a lot easier pulling an...

I don’t have any proof of this but just from following recruiting, I’d say most kids (66% and up) are from surrounding states. You have Duke, Kentucky and Gonzaga that recruit from anywhere but the core of pretty much every other program is fairly regional. Pick a random P6 school and look...

You have to earn the right to recruit nationally, it's not the other way around. It's great for people to say "I don't care where they come from as long as we win" but athletic departments have budgets and reality is that more often than not, you aren't convincing a kid halfway across the...

Muss would be the homerun hire...I just don't see us shelling out the cash to get him but I think he'd give the same shot in the arm to the basketball program that Fleck did for football. I'm not buying that he wouldn't be interested as every coach has a price especially when they aren't at a...

Someone seems desperate for the job ;)

Would this be a bad gift for my wife?

Racists falling up, an American tradition unlike any other.

Bear Alexander committed to Georgia. Nearly impossible to pull elite interior DLinemen out of the south. Though there was interest, always seemed a long shot

Mason played just like Carr does. Remember how irked people would get about Nate’s early possession pull up jumpers? Same approach, different players. The blame shouldn't be on Carr, he's being asked to be Mr. Everything for us as a creator for himself and others just like Gabe is still being...

The list is probably 12-15 teams long and Tennessee is probably on that list but the key is stability which shrinks the list a great deal. Let's be honest, we know there's a number of jobs that have natural advantages that have more upside than this one but have a bunch of bozo decision makers...

If people are ragging on Carr, they haven't watched Pitino era guard play the last 8 years. When we can't get post touches, we prayed that Mason or Coffey could bail out an offensive possession. There's minimal off ball movement or action being run to create good looks. It's post dump ins from a...

If they can keep shooting like they have from 3 the past few games, they'll be tough to beat because their front court is tricky enough to deal with as is....experienced guards too.

As some others have mentioned, he’s just going to take the traditional path for a big in college. Stashed and developed for a couple years before being relied upon...nothing wrong with that at all. Pohto is more in the mold of your Eric Curry like plug and play big. Should give us solid minutes...

The Jekyll and Hyde nature of this team has been something else lol but these home games have been a lot of fun to watch.

Sounds like the Townley ship has sailed

Andries, Ruschmeyer and Schmitz will all be headed into their 5th year of college in this 2021 season. Maybe Ruschmeyer sticks around for a 6th but I see Andries and Schmitz as legit NFL prospects who probably should make the jump following the 2021 season. Dunlap’s obviously headed into his 4th...
