    (2018) PG - James Akinjo

    What I like most about Akinjo is that he is a proven winner. Winning the peach Jam and now making the final of this tournament.

    The kid who stepped up and drilled the one and one for this has ice in his veins. Too bad he is only 5'10"

    These guys look great. WOW

    I was thinking this as well. I'm looking to see what kind of shots we get in CMs offense. Hopefully better quality shots produce a higher shooting percentage versus the dribble weave chuck up a 3 at the end of the shot clock offense we have seen in the past

    I hope you're right. We have been waiting on the team you just described for a long time

    Beat Purdue and make the tournament. That would be a really good first year

    (2018) PF Darius Days to LSU

    Without a doubt it is unlikely. I just wanted to start a conversation. I guess that wasn't a very good idea. Lol. I do believe we are going to see 2 things happen from time to time with CM. (1) he is going to keep an open scholarship in his pocket and (2) use a redshirt in the right situation. My point all along is nobody knows what CM will do with roster management so it's really going to be fun watching it play out.
  8. That is a very good description Old Friend

    All I said was "I wonder" if a redshirt was possible. I never said it was happening just throwing it out there. Lol man oh man

    I have no idea what CAM plan too do with red shirts. I wouldn't be surprised to see it again or not see it again

    I wonder if the plan is to use another redshirt meaning he wouldn't play until 2019. It will be interesting to see how CAM manages the roster

    I would take Anderson all day long. I love Henry's game but Anderson is the better fit with the other players we have on the roster. I also like that we got him out of an area we haven't recruited well in the past.

    Haven't heard anything new other than we continue to be front and center at his games.

    From what I have seen of RP shows above average athletic ability. He can flush it too easy to be in the non-athletic category. Would interesting to see what Coach Marshall can do with him if he commits.

    I wonder what Painter thought when he seen Coach walk in out at LA. Poor little brother.

    I'm leaning towards this as well. At some point he has to say "commit or we are going to move on to other kids". I think that is what we are seeing now.

    Oh not counting the obvious flaws (defense, turnovers, consistency, off court troubles, substitutions)

    Really I think the biggest issue Crean had was the high turnover rate. He always had a very high turnover rate for guys we needed to stay and develop. Add that to the ones who didn't pan out (hollowell, Perea, Ethrington, Robinson, etc..) he was always behind the curve and playing catch up.

    Anderson, Hunter, Thompson, Langford, and Phinisee would be one of if not the best recruiting class we have had in 20 plus years. I don't expect that from Archie his first 4 months on the job but if he pulls it off we are absolutely going to make some noise nationally.

    With all the new PG offers this week I gotta think CAM is working his tail off to get a quality guy that fits his system. Garland would be a monster pickup but we gotta get him to Bloomington if we want a chance.

    (2018) SG - Luguentz Dort to Arizona State

    Now that would be a statement class. It would be nice to get a guy from Izzo for once.

    (2018) SG - Luguentz Dort to Arizona State

    Looks like he wants to take a visit around August timeframe. If we land Dort does that mean the Romeo sweepstakes is over?
