Your 2 cents is right on the money,BB5. Redshirting is over due to transfer portal. Money talks and loyalty to team has walked out the door!
Sharing what I just heard...
- Thread starter nicky
- Start date
As an inside player weight and muscle are needed, but as an outside player speed, quick release, and shooting skills are needed. he could definitely contribute IF he has these skills.
We hear this all the time about practice and then players end up being exactly what they always are.
Like player X is doing outstanding ..........then year 3 of said player begins and he plays exactly the same as Years 1 and 2.
We don't have previous results on this guy, but if he was this stud player he wouldn't be redshirting.

He’s redshirting to still have 4 more additional possible years of NIL. Don’t let anyone tell you different. Don’t let one outlier ranking change your perception of him as a player.
These stories from Pope are just buying cover to get late enough in the season for the question to go away

What OP meant is that Hawthorne is tearing him up in practice for his new flic Trolls On Bolls.
He ain't gonna be here 5 years if he's good.

If he really is good, and I don’t trust pope for one second, the kid won’t let Mark burn a loss of one year of NIL. That sounds about like something pope would say. Just like he is praying Kam plays this year.
Is he getting paid now? If so, then who cares what he wants? Suppose he would be a difference maker...are you willing to throw 3 or 4 more wins and maybe more tourney success away because he doesn't wanna?
Aha, the good ol’ anonymous insider!!!
Him and Josh Carrier dominate. They combined with Matt Pilgrim and the South American PG to tear the starters up in practice. It’s why we have gotten so much better recently.
He can be a stud, Its just not between his ears to do it on a regular bases. I won't believe Hawthorne is as good as there saying, until they put his a.ss on the floor. What coach sets out a Tashawn Prince for a red shirt, if he's a stud like were hearing. I call bull s.hit, until proven in a game and not practice. Practice is where it starts, but if you can't translate that to real games, it don't mean Jack s.hit.
People were saying Jules Camara looked like a lottery pick during preseason pickup games.
You can count on players not being around for 4 yrs, if they can take your team anywhere. If Hawthorne were that good, he would never have been red shirted in the first place. I hope like hell he proves me way wrong, and plays like fkn Kevin Durrant, but Not likely going to happen.
Maybe NIL for 5 yrs are some of these guys goal, if there not confident that they will be in the NBA.
I think he was like 6-9 and 158lbs or something he made True freshman Tashaun prince look HUGE!

He's definitely more.like 6-10.then 6-8 hes tall as anybody on our team now except maybe jelavic!
I don’t know man. If he is doing that well in practice I’d play him. You never know, he may transfer and then we paid him for zero production. Also, he’ll most likely be drafted before his senior year so he wouldn’t have needed a RS year.
I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed a player that “was tearing it up“ in practice actually tear it up in an actual game.
Ament WAS skinny. But he gained 20 lbs over the summer. Has Hawthorne gained 20 lbs ?
Perfect.comparison he can be a poor man's Nate Ament his first yr and then develop into a great player .
Besides your average stars, but I get your point. Nobody like a Josh Carrier who we all wanted to break out and was a practice star ever did much in games outside Allen against MS State lol.
I don't see how this can suddenly be true. Just because he's redshirting doesn't mean he wasn't practicing all this time.
Possibly
His jersey hangs in the rafters at Rupp and you hear him on the radio every game...
