Agreed. I think we all want Nacho to construct a perfectly balanced roster for his first season. It's going to take a minute for him to establish his brand at the U.
I think it is more likely that he is the Mbemba replacement. Fill it out with more 6'7" forwards that can shoot. Add in a couple guards and we will look pretty good.
You sound like you were a fan of Ben starting Parker Fox every game last year. He didn't deserve to start, but at least he wasn't finishing, am I right?
C’mon Slim Tubby. I’m already tired of the “Nacho” bit. If you’re trying to be cute or funny: it’s not. If you’re trying to be a dink: I had always thought you were better than that.
You're being a little hard on the beave. This came out of the thread that complained about people's habit of misspelling players' names. Some of us figured that, if you're going to misspell someone's name, do it affectionately and with style!
No. Parker was pretty limited, anyway you cut it. Try to find him some clock based on match ups and situation. But definitely not a guarantee to start every game.
Perhaps I can push you off.
Of our 6 spots to fill, there are enough impact players in the portal that we could realistically sign 2 or 3. Plus, "impact players" isn't defined until the season starts anyway (based on how they perform)
Jo-jo McIver?
That's a good metric to live by. You need star players. These last six scholarships are going to tell the tale.
The one big difference to me between this roster so far and a lot of Ben's is that there's a good amount of guys that have more than 1 year of eligibility left. There's at least some room for development.
I read somewhere that the talent that Niko has on the current roster grades out better than the entire roster from last year.
I'll give it a shot
Executive summary: we settled for Medved and shouldn't expect much different results.
Once, for a joke (even if it’s not funny), I can put up with. Keeping it up is too much like the idiot that called Pitino “little Ricky” for his entire time at MN. That was just being a jerk.
read into what it you want, I expect Niko to be successful here. I expect the team to better next year than last year and see continued growth.
The difference: Nacho is affectionate.
PJ has had the Gophers in the top 10. Medved has had CSU in the top 15. Those are a couple of really good coaches.
When someone breaks out Litt'O Niko, then we know the program is in trouble...again.
You, my friend, are an idea man.
There’s not much room for patience anymore when everyone is a free agent every year. I trust Niko to do this fast if he is properly funded. That’s a big if around here
