Given the uncommitted big men in the portal now, I would expect him to be a starter or at least play most of the minutes at the 5. There really aren't a lot of decent or better centers available. Most of them are either relatively untested underclassmen or players who seemed destined to be...

Yes, but word is that the NCAA has assembled a task force to reduce that sort of thing and provide rules to determine the legitimate business interest of NIL payments now that revenue sharing has kicked in.

Not in my top 2 or 3 for most preferred uncommitted center targets but the pickings are fairly slim right now and he'll definitely do! Welcome Robert!

Plenty of time perhaps but there are not plenty of bigs who can be considered "decent or better" listed as uncommitted in the portal right now. I look at the portal every day, often multiple times per day, and I'd estimate that there aren't more than 8 uncommitted centers who are worth taking...

Yes, he would be a very good example too because he was a great athlete, a great student, and an all American kind of guy.

Nobody is giving him a pass. By the way, he was fired so he's no longer the issue. I don't see the point in continuing to kick a dead horse.

I think that revenue sharing will lead to decreased NIL contributions over time. The Gophers already didn't have a fanbase that was enthusiastic about making donations to college athletes. Now that players are sharing revenue, there will be even less motivation. Also, supposedly the NCAA is...

Another sophomore. I'm glad Medved is going after guys with a couple of years left. I am interested in who he will get as a true big man.

You managed to embarrass yourself for two reasons with your post: one for inserting an inappropriate political remark in a sports forum and two for not knowing that the current NCAA president, Charlie Baker, was a two-term Republican governor of Massachusetts. In fact, Massachusetts has had a...

If Isaiah Hawkins can go inside, Mulholland can go inside.

Can't disagree with what you've said there but I've watched three of Chattanooga's games now and I like the kid, not as an immediate starter but as a rotational player for the time being. He's only a redshirt freshman. I agree that he settles too much for threes and doesn't go inside enough but...

Not too big of a bag. I like the kid and I've watched him in three late season games now (one in Chattanooga's conference tournament and two in the NIT) but I don't think he's quite Big Ten starter quality just yet. He's still young, just a redshirt freshman. He can do a lot of things and he...

I wouldn't mind getting his teammate from high school, Collin Mulholland, who will be playing for Chattanooga in tonight's NIT championship game. I don't see him as an initial starter but I think he could be a good rotational player. He does a number of things and he moves around the court a...

I'm certainly not going to bet that the Gophers will finish above PSU at this point but I don't know where you are getting your numbers. Five of their top 8 players in terms of minutes per game are out of eligibility and they lost 4 players to the transfer portal (although 3 of them barely...

Prior to us getting any commits, I didn't expect much improvement over last year in terms of actual record in the upcoming year. The first two transfer recruits haven't done anything to change my mind. Does that mean Ben Johnson shouldn't have been fired? Of course not. I liked what I saw...

Jaden Henley to Grand Canyon. Certainly a well traveled player.

Well said! I think some of that can be due to naivete about the complexity of the task, the limitations (both in personnel and resources) of the people doing the ratings, and the overall quality of information posted on the web.

As much as I liked Hawkins, I don't feel that way. I think the team adequately compensated for Hawkins' distribution abilities although that's not all he did. Payne was a true big man who could measure up to most of the centers in the league. Frank was a very good offensive rebounder and a...

Two-time Atlantic Sun 1st team (23 & 25) and POY in 2025. Must have been injured in the 24 season as he didn't play that year. Love to have him. He should come here instead of Wisconsin. At Wisconsin, he would just look like half of the other players on the team.

So he already knows he's coming here? Just kidding. I wish though. I think this past season demonstrated that he was the biggest loss from the 2024 team.
