Fr: Doucoure/Mathis/McClung

We all know the moving parts....sanders might go pro, doorson may not be back for 5th, transfer rumors for bullock, what year doucoure is

Here is might thoughts
1.) we know we have one more for 2018....it must be a big man. Only have doucoure, Johnson and maybe doorson. Yes can steal some 4 minutes with Eugene but we need another 4/5. This is the first priority

2.) If doorson does NOT come back ...must be a second big. Prefer a JUCO or 5th year guy as we will have three bigs that are soph or frosh

3.) for class of 2019...think you take one guard, one small forward, and one big for known three spots. The big man may be in 2018 for one of those spots in advance if doorson doesn't return

Trying to see what's out there that fits our profile needs. Of course if a 4 star wants in that is in this need list...you take and figure out the puzzle piece issues

Not sure if Doorsan wouldn't be here? Is that his decision or Rutgers decision? Bullock I have no idea and Sanders is a wildcard. One thing that could make Sanders possible return is we have some incredible talent coming in and he could have major space on the floor with guards like Mathis, Geo and Maclung.

I know there's a big time shooting guard visiting next week so I think you take him if he wants to come even though we could use a small forward and and power forward the most. We need big men that's for sure.

Sanders is really working for that camp invite. His antics have becomes a little bit more about me then I would like. Still wish the best for him.

I don't know? I think he seems so grown up and mature now. If you think about how many high schools he went to to get to college and now that he's about to be here for a third year; that's a big accomplishment. I think for Corey; it's always just been about getting to play pro ball. I don't know how he was even able to take exams this year with the camps and pre draft preparation?

I really thank Corey for choosing Rutgers and I'm hoping for a monster junior year for him.

At this point Corey can go pro but it would be overseas. He has way too much he needs to work on. He needs to work on his left hand, his shot, his passing, his ball handling. The only thing he has that is elite is his athleticism. He should be a four year player but if he wants to go overseas than there's nothing wrong with that decision.

Question? Is it Better to go overseas based on the money; more so than the D league; even though the D league is affiliated with NBA teams?

If a player goes overseas, where is the biggest money?

Overseas, players know how to shoot, handle, pass, and right handed players know how to use their left hand. Him making a team there isn't exactly a foregone conclusion.

Doorson will be a 5th year and it is never automatic.

Throw in the fact he is still battling through injuries and it is not unreasonable to speculate that his return for 2018-2019 isn't 100% certain

I know they need a big man but I don't think they pass up on Carey if they can get him.

If Carey wants to come to RU you DEFINITELY take him. He is a big time player. I have seen him play several times. I believe he scored like 43 points against Roselle Catholic last year which was loaded with D-1 talent. He was basically carrying Immaculate Conception and RC could not stop him.He was hitting shots from everywhere and every way possible.

I think our program is still at a point where you take the best possible talent you can land. Yes we need bigs, but I still think we need wings. I hope Eugene and Issa develop, but until proven otherwise I see them as guys just fighting to get in the rotation.

A couple of guys saying something on message board does not equate to transfer rumors.
