Trilly also saying that he’s hearing more IU for Perkins. But lots of Michigan for Essegian

No Thornton in portal yet. Perkins as our lead guard is such a curious move. Essegian is whatever to me. Can be exposed on defensive end. Limited on offensive end.

If I want that, I take Blackmon without question.

I’m not too thrilled with what we’ve got going so far. Even the rumored names aren’t big ticket guys.

TBD, I guess, hope some surprise names drop this week.

Saw this elsewhere.  Blackmon will get you 30.  Blackmon will give up 20.  Do you want him for a net 10 ppg?

Blackmon Hickman.. only room for one, and I'd take Connor.

If I thought that were true I’d be fine with Blackmon. But my fear is what you’d actually get is Blackmon giving you 17, giving up 22 and putting your bigs on the bench with fouls because he can’t stay in front of any decent scorer.

That’s what’s most likely in a major conference

I think Perkins would make us a little better, but if he ends up being the dynamic lead guard that we supposedly were targeting, I am underwhelmed. Keep waiting for those reported “connections” to kick in.

Me waiting for some transfers.

Is it just me and my impatience but shouldn’t we have at least 1 commitment from the transfer portal

It is reported that Brandon Huntley-Hatfield from UL will visit April 12-14. He is to visit NC State this weekend but with them in the Elite 8, how will that visit go? If it happens this weekend at all.

It really doesn’t matter if a player shoots a high 3 ball percentage unless it is done in the rhythm of a smooth passing and movement offense.  A 45% 3 ball shooter can become a 30 or below % shooter unless everything flows well.

What is this flow thing you speak of?

1000%

Also greatly prefer Perkins, Walker, and especially Conwell.

Guys with some dog in ‘em.

661 players had entered the portal according to On3 and only 23 have committed.

I’ve warmed to Perkins because, while I don’t love the skill fit, my biggest issue with last year’s team wasn’t the shooting or the schemes, it was the complete lack of on court leadership. Every good team has Yogi or Hulls or some kid who centers and galvanizes you. Particularly now when you’re re-rostering every year. Galloway’s not wired that way. That’s why imo so many games got completely sideways last year. The team just drifted. I don’t know if Perkins is that guy or not, but when I watched Iowa I knew who the Guy was.

If the worst defensive player on the floor is still net 10, you’re probably going undefeated. Just saying.

But we got a jump on many schools because we denied the NIT we probably wasn’t going to anyway, I’m only talking about 1.  There were players that committed to schools that still in the tournament

Getting a five star incoming freshman this week hasn’t filled your to-date quota?

A little patience—guessing it won’t be all that long.

My wife tells me all the time that very same thing and it still doesn’t work!
