Bradshaw was never short on talent, his problem was between his ears. 

As far as our money, I think with one position to fill, if we do, money could be gotten for a starting big wing that averaged 16.9 ppg and was the best 3pt shooter in the country. 

Other than that I don't know who else is left. 

Not many options. Looks like Euros who have played professionally at a high level are off the table and 5for5 doesn't apply to kids who graduated this year. The transfer portal is pretty much depleted. Only a couple who interest me for what we need:

Emeka Opurum- 7'0" from Auburn who we were involved with last year as a juco. Only problem is he sat out last year with a heart condition. Supposedly has been medically cleared to play and visited N.C. State last weekend.

Hamad Mousa-6'8" from Cal Poly a high scoring wing and great shooter. Just not sure about the level of competition but Michigan and Kentucky have been involved.

Why don’t we take a look from our football squad? Prescott Horvath from Mishawaka, 6’8-6’9/280. Never seen him play, saw an average of 20p 8r. Would seem to add another practice player? Anyone here seen him play?

Mike Walz from Richmond? 6’11-260, avg 8p 6r last year in 21-22mpg while shooting 38.5% from 3pt

Had not heard of him- might be a good fit especially with that shooting ability.

Did some more digging and saw another guy who might help-Veljko Ilic from Sam Houston State averaged 11ppg and 6 boards-6'10" 240. Maybe knows Lamar.
