Recruiting Crunch

['Cane-man]

This past year's recruiting class has put TU and Frank Haith behind the 8-ball. Zeke Moore (the most highly-touted recruit) quit. Simon Falokun's progress was stymied by injury. Chris Barnes and Peter Hewitt did not contribute very much. We'll have to see if transfer Reggie Jones and walk-on George Christopolous will be heavy rotation players.

Maybe Barnes and Falokun can elevate their games...or there could be some attrition among this group.

Incoming freshman Isiah Hill seems like an exciting prospect. But I think it is fair to say TU has a couple of large gaps in their roster that need to be filled this spring. Let's hope Haith and staff can get the job done.​

 

[TU Sepp]

A big man and a strong power forward would be a good start...

Ya but we need guards

Ya but we need guards

Guards that can shoot close to 40% on their 3’s and a reliable 15 point average . Not 23 one game then 4 points the next . You know a Steve Harris prototype.

Steve Harris was special. We most likely will need the distribution spread out a bit due to our inability to sign those type if players. Most importantly when we put a team on the floor, we need options. If they do take a scoring threat away there needs to be effective players that can take on more of the load so opposing squads can’t just shut down one guy and kick the hell out of us. We’ve seen enough of that recently. That conversely doesn’t mean that anyone can just disappear and magically resurface a game or two later.
