Any Basketball Recruiting updates

Instead of doubling down on your nonsense, how about repeating the fact that he dealt with a ton of injuries and started with an empty cupboard? But then that wouldn't give you a reason to create another account.

I understand what you are saying but it is not exactly rare for todays coaches to start from scratch. Two years in and Pope had an empty cupboard, his own cupboard, to replace this season. While we did have injuries, almost every team has injuries. I will admit that last year was the first time I have seen a coach heavily recruit a guy hobbled by a severe injury then, get to use that injury as an excuse for the whole season.

Black to Arkansas, but taking his time
Rosser - seems to suggest UNC still very involved, but so are UK, Ville and Ark. They question whether Ark will spend.
Williams - BYU
Diggs - Zona
Daughtry - same ol, but he will wait till spring
Anderon - Tenn & Va
Jalen Davis - UNC
Jordan - Vandy
Millogo - UK

Millogo & Hampton a find class for Pope, if that's where it lands. If he gets a 28 reclass, even sweeter. I don't think you want to go overboard with HS.

I think it’s Benji if Rosser goes elsewhere which I’m totally fine with. 3 man class then retention and portal.

I think the "plan" is probably Hampton, Millogo... Stay in the hunt for Rosser (doubtful unless we overspend and promise to build the team around him), and if you lose Rosser, they will use that offer for Benji, Kamagate, or both in the spring as reclasses. If we do land Millogo, his agent and Yann K's are the same and both have the Aboyo connection. It's a long way from a done deal though. Pope needs to hit a homerun with this class, not necessarily a world series grand slam, but a solo shot to get on the board and show some power. He's been swinging for the fences and either striking out or flying out to straightaway left a lot. Millogo shooting up the rankings probably made his price tag go up. Hope UK can lock him down before he takes a turn opens back up his recruiting.

Those diva high 5*s seem like such PIA's in the NIL era. You end up blowing 1/4 of your NIL on em and they come with demands. If it's Flagg or Boozer I get it, no one here that good.

Ament waiting till spring last year, he sucked and now he sucks in the NBA. I get it if you can lock em up early, but who wants to wait to the spring to land these guys?

The reality is that you should throw all of em in a pool with the portal guys at the same time so you can shop for what you need collectively.

 

[Feral Manatee]

Think I’d rather have a heavy portal roster. Maybe 2 HS guys.

If ncaa legislation is passed, limiting transfers, we will HAVE TO compete in high school recruiting again. Our portal success could be a path that is completely closed off as an option for building a team if congress passes an ncaa bill now or in the future. What then?

 

[Lameguy]

Only 6 of them rated as 5 stars, seems like a pretty weak class that so many on here obsessed over.

Yes that’s a good class
