Quote from: brewcity77 on Today at 08:47:33 AMCorrect. The issue was the academic eligibility, which is why we still brought in Jameel McKay from JUCO and would've brought Willie Atwood (ended up at ASU) had Buzz stuck around. As long as academics were in line, admin was okay with it, but some of those transcripts (Jae Crowder in particular) were disasters.

Remind me - why did McKay transfer out?  Was it his position/role?

This has more to do with roster balance...

But only Chase Ross, Ben Gold, and maybe Royce Parham would start for either the 2014 or 2021 wojo teams.

Could be convinced that buzz last year was not that bad. Think there were 3 guys on that team who appeared in the NBA. They went 17 n 2, I believe.

Was at mu with Dukiet and at least those teams played hard and we had some semblance of an offense. Example, I think there was a scrum during a game and Candelino bit a player from the other team. Don't see anyone on this soft as hell, can I get a hug roster....do that. We have no fight.

I thought we were gonna stink this past summer, then became optimistic and said 18 wins, current thought is 10 to 11 wins.

I wonder if the Hausers would write more letters.

Talent identification and evaluation have been the huge issues. We're getting next to nothing from the junior and sophomore classes. The good news is we have two good freshman guards and you can definitely see how Phillips could contribute next year. The system seems fine. It's generating open threes and open to mildly contested layups. We just can't put the ball in the hoop.

Royce had a few good moments of bully ball on Tuesday hat I'd like to see him capitalize on. Play more like that and less as a drifter around the arc. Start giving him postups and see what happens.

Quote from: brewcity77 on Today at 12:50:30 PMIn terms of hit or miss, the closest thing to a hit would be Zaide, who would be fine as our fifth starter but is needed to be much more and hasn't demonstrated that yet.
Generous. Like is he better than Royce or a Greg Elliot?

Quote from: brewcity77 on Today at 12:50:30 PMWow, that's a big block of text.

The season isn't over, but unless we beat Wisconsin and Purdue on the road or win the Big East Tournament, our hopes of playing in the 2026 NCAA Tournament are over. There just isn't a realistic path to an at-large bid that doesn't involve winning those two games.

I think the gripes are threefold:

1. The talent isn't good enough at this level. We don't have players that can score the basketball given the looks they get and they cannot defend adequately in the system we want to play.

2. The staff misevaluated the talent. If they truly believed Sean was the heir apparent to TK/Kam, they grossly misjudged him. If they truly believed we had a Big East level front court, they grossly misjudged the team. And if they believed we had enough wing scoring, this current crop simply didn't grow enough to make that a reality.

3. Lack of portal use. Right now we are getting very little from our junior and sophomore classes, which should make up a good percentage of starter and front-line bench minutes. In terms of hit or miss, the closest thing to a hit would be Zaide, who would be fine as our fifth starter but is needed to be much more and hasn't demonstrated that yet. Being able to fill in with experienced players that have longer track records could paper over some of these recruiting misses.

The fact that we are lined up to potentially see Caedin Hamilton be a 3 year starter is just so so so defeating. It actually hurts to think about.
