Harris story: Saw him in HS at a showcase event. Got undercut on a fast break and took a nasty fall on his back. Thought the kid was really hurt. Down for several minutes. Took him to the locker room, wasn’t walking well at all. Came back out to the bench walking a little better and proceeded to flat wear his coach out trying to get back in the game. Coach finally gave in and that kid competed his a$$ off at about 70%. Long way of saying, yeah, kid’s a dawg and I’d take him in a second.

Great transition scorer. Killer excellent warrior attitude. Terrible shooter away from the rim. Lockdown defender - First Team All-Big12 Defense.. Contributes to winning. Two years remaining eligibility.

Smart, thoughtful, team oriented young man that is a high-level culture addition. Major Chris Reynolds vibes!

Take, take, take!

And..  

It's a decent chance he wouldn't have started last year at WVU with Stone and Tucker 

Small

Stone

DeVries

Okani

Hansberry

 

Harris

Powell

Yesuf

Andre

 

IMO-- is a pretty darn good group, especially if Stone fit seamlessly. And building that type of roster, year 1 with those resources has me excited.

Rice to the portal.

I like Rice.  He seems like a pretty good kid and he has overcome a lot.  Unfortunately, he got caught up in Woody's system -- I guess his NIL takes some of the sting off of that. 

He may not be a fit for CDD, but hopefully he can find a place where he can start improving again.

I can’t like this enough. I’m sure he’s a good kid but usually only played hard on offense in the form of out of control passes and shots. ATO horrible and opposite of CDD philosophy  of taking care of the ball.

Just saying; when he was at Washington State and wasn't being coached by Woody, his assist/turnover rate was excellent.

Honestly don't know how Woody talked any guard into playing for him. Well, I gue$$ I do...

I just know he is somehow gonna put up 30 against us when we play. 

That’s unlikely imo.  He was never a big time scorer in hs.

Oh I am ALL in on an avatar bet for that. I’ll stand up in my living room for a round of applause if he scores 3.

Would have never thought that Cupps could score 30 against anyone, but @Hovadipo with an avatar bet adds some funky "Bug-eyed Josh pic" pro-Gabe juju for sure. 

So maybe.

The guys Woodson brought in last year (except maybe Goode) came for the money. It doesn’t mean they’re bad kids, or that money is all they care about, but it’s why they came to play for Mike Woodson. I’m ready for a completely fresh start, so I’m glad to see everyone hitting the portal, as harsh as that may sound. After listening to DD’s interview yesterday, he sounds like a normal, down to earth, hardworking guy, and I’m excited to see who he brings in.

I second this. But I'd keep Goode and roll the dice on Tucker who Woodson seemed to have beef with. I had a buddy tell me Tucker asked to be shut down as well. I don't know that I care one way or another, but I don't want to see any resemblance of the type of basketball we saw this year.
