Recruiting as of 5/15/26

[HutchwasClutch]

When a program goes without winning their conference, missing most NCCAT and not winning the rare occasions they do get in, and is generally a bottom feeder for a generation(s), they're a high major in name only. High major should mean more than simply what conference they belong to.

South Carolina has a more recent final 4 than we do......they also have 4 current players in the NBA........have they been a consistently good power conference team? No

But they are a high major by everyone's definition but yours (apparently).......and do recruit good players on a regular basis.

Why don't we wait to see how hard we even pursue the kid before dismissing him for not being recruited by suitable competition?

He has had a very good spring..........the staff has interest and vice versa...,,.,that's all we know right now.

Relax

It doesn't.

Wait until he finds out about what schools offered Tyler Kolek out of high school........

So essentially you are promoting your own personal beliefs of what qualifies a team as a true high major as definitive. I see absolutely nothing in your posts on the subject to suggest that this is simply your take.

Conference affiliation does not make a program a high major.

Literally the only thing that makes a program a high major. High major is a conference designation.

South Carolina has a more recent final 4 than we do......they also have 4 current players in the NBA........have they been a consistently good power conference team? No

Example:

Collin Murray-Boyles
2025 NBA 9th overall pick
2025-26 2nd team All-Rookie

Definitely don't want Shaka recruiting any players like that.

Keep an eye on the name Jomar Bernard. 2027  6-8 SF out of Florida.

Really??

[MU82]

Literally the only thing that makes a program a high major is a wacky opinion on a fan site.

That really isn't accurate

Scoop goes bad every summer.

Random tidbit -- MUBB posted a video on Instagram interviewing some of the players; Nigel spoke about how excited he was for this roster and noted that he and Ethan Johnston have been friends since they were about 7. He also referred to Sananda as "Sunny".

Hopefully Fru plays well at Villanova.

Thats Fru's nickname coming into MU. Nothing new.

Get that feel-good nonsense out of here. With 18 on the roster, we'll be lucky to win even 12 games again.

Did anyone know this week before the Shaka interviews with Homer and Broeker?  If people didn't see them, than it's new.

I knew before he committed from Pat Kelsey quotes, but I might be more of a sicko than the average Scooper.

Yes. I've referred to him as Sunny on this very website multiple times. Here's one from three weeks ago:

You seem to repeat the same argument that cries about the fact that 18 isn't going to start or play huge minutes. No one is disputing that (unless there is an injury to Sunny, God forbid).

The issue is that SS will likely put 18 in the regular rotation, giving him planned minutes in the first half of games. It was the impetus for Sheek's departure, and hampers the outlook for this team. #LastYear

So, yeah.. #NotNew
