He didn't even have to like a post. We had him in candy stripes from someone saying something about a good freshman wanting to transfer to IU.

FWIW, the "Indiana Sports Partizen" has subsequently posted in a way that makes it clear he was talking about Essegian.

Would we roll the dice on another Pitt transfer or too much baggage?  John Hugley in the portal.

https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/news/pitt-forward-john-hugley-to-enter-ncaa-transfer-portal/

This is an intriguing prospect:

  • He has three years of eligibility remaining.
  • His numbers in his one full year at Pitt were strong: 14.8 ppg/7.9 rpg in 30 mpg, though lots of turnovers and pretty low fg %. He's a true big that absolutely can play ball and bang down low.
  • Coming off a knee injury and a lost season due to mental health issues.
  • Finally, he has a pre-existing relationship with Xavier Johnson... and not a positive one. But it seems as though X has grown as a man and a leader: 
    • According to a copy of the criminal complaint levied against Hugley, Hugley and an unidentified accomplice stole a 2012 Chevrolet Malibu that had been parked on Coltart Avenue in Oakland near Pitt’s campus on July 19, 2020. Video evidence obtained by Pittsburgh Police allegedly shows Claire Green, the daughter of the vehicle’s owner, and three other individuals, including Pitt basketball players Noah Collier and Will Jeffress, exit the vehicle where Green said it was parked on Coltart Avenue on the evening on July 18, 2020. According to the complaint, Green said the individuals attended a party in Collier and Jeffress’ dorm room, along with Hugley, an unidentified friend of Hugley’s and Pitt guard Xavier Johnson.

Bring in Essegian and a player like Jaden Taylor.

Our Guards would be deep

Johnson/Cupp

Galloway/Taylor/Gunn

Essegian/Bates/Newton

Banks

Reneau

 

Then find a Veteran stretch 4 and another Veteran big and this team has Top 25 potential and Top 5 in big ten. 

I approve of this message, especially the bolded part.
