We are gonna be a fairly old team and back in the portal pretty heavy next year.

That's fine, is what it is until high school recruiting picks up and that takes a little bit of time.  A few portal guys with multiple years of eligibility will help balance things out, and I'm sure we'll get some of those here in the next few weeks...

If DeVries can prove in year 1 that his approach can succeed here, he will have no problem recruiting HS and portal players going forward. This year was always going to be more challenging because players are taking a bit of a leap of faith to come here as opposed to more established systems elsewhere. With that, we will likely have to overpay some players. That's just the way it is.

I'll worry about next portal season next portal season.

Any more news on Acadian Lewis? Intriguing since he has years left.

I think Trevor Andershock said he talked to someone in Lewis' camp and it looks like IU isn't in the mix.

I did see one really whacked comment saying that Wilkerson looked very uncomfortable at Keeneland and it was good that Pope took him there because it exposed Wilkerson’s anti-social personality…and would certainly be a cancer.  My paraphrasing.  LOL So many maroons, as Bugs would say.

I can believe he appeared very uncomfortable at a horse track; very odd place to take a recruit, especially a priority one, on a recruiting visit. Was the restaurant really THAT cool? Read the room Kentucky!

PG - Starter/Entight

SG - Wilkerson 

SF - DeVries/Sisley

Let’s add to this as players get added so it’s easier for us to track 

Any news on Goode yet?

Would that be Marshall from Mizzou? 

Haven’t watched him play but reading about him it looks like he’s more of a traditional back to the basket big? If that’s true then no.

We’d need a mobile anchor on defense given our perimeter defense may be suspect, and a threat in the PnR given the middle should be wide open with our shooters on the floor.

Sisley more a 4, especially 20-30lbs from now. 

Based on his roster last year... heavy perimeter players incoming. 1-2 more bigs, IMO. 

Shouldn't we leave a roster spot open through....?.. July? Idk
