What type of player does MU want with the last 4 scholarships?

[tower912]

Assuming status quo.... Koby, Symir, Greg, Dexter for guards.  Oso, Justin, BB and Cain for forwards.   Theo all alone in the post.
IMO, Wojo needs at least one, and more likely two post players/bangers.   Garcia has the length. 
A 6'6 shooter.
An ultra quick small guard.

I assume that Wojo will keep a scholarship in his pocket for a transfer of some kind, most likely another grad transfer big.

RJ Davis is the priority right?

Another PG. Always bring in a PG if you have multiple open scholarships. Or at the least a combo guard who can play point and also play dogged D.

A dead-eye 3-point shooter who preferably is a great defender at the wing.

Two bigs ... all the better if at least one of them also can shoot.

Is that too much to ask?

I would concur with the above..and I would say Davis and Garcia are both priorities. A dead eye shooter would be really nice, unfortunately, it doesn't seem that MU is in on anyone that would fit that description. But, you take the best available players and make it work, however best suits the talent you have.

[MUfan12]

Absolutely need some shooting.

[Nukem2]

This.

I would amend to say Davis, Garcia, and Suggs are the top 3 priorities.

Not sure why people keep leaving Suggs out of the conversation when we are in his top 3.

[tower912]

If MU gets a PG and Garcia, I am OK with, and might even encourage, a project big.    A Heldt.    Or Ike with a good back.   

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

Winners?

[DienerTime34]

A switchable that can dribble, pass, and shoot.

I'm one of the biggest Suggs's guys here, believe me. I want him VERY badly. But, it seemed Wojo didn't give him an in home visit recently(though he was at his school), that's a bit concerning. Also, every time I bring him up...people just say "forget Suggs, he's going to Gonzaga". Even though he hasn't committed there yet. So I don't bother to bring him up anymore because I will just get told "he's going to Gonzaga"

Because sometimes being in the top 3 means something....and sometimes it doesn't.......If Suggs visits I will start taking his recruitment more seriously.....until then I will assume he is going to Gonzaga.....

If MU could get only 1 more verbal from any of the remaining players this fall, I'd gladly go into the spring period with 3 signees.

Ditto. I'd also be OK with a great shooter who might be otherwise limited -- a Rowseye or Cubillan type, though I'd prefer more size. Does Novak have any eligibility left?

Ditto that, too.

Get 3 outstanding commits, kick arse during the season, take the BEast title and advance to the second weekend, and show Dawson and others that WarriorLand is happenin'!

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

1.  Player with size that can contribute right away.  Garcia, JBF, or grad transfer.

2.  RJ Davis or AJ Hoggard
I'd take both but I think one is the goal.  Davis provides better shooting but Hoggard is bigger.

3.  BPA
Suggs, Mane, late bloomer, transfer...lots of ways to go

4.  Depends on what happens with the other spots.  Could be a shooter, big, BPA, or transfer.

[brewcity77]

1) Guard, ideally Davis or Hoggard. Could take both, but getting one should be a priority. Continue to spread guards among the classes because we've seen what guard-deficient teams look like.

2) Big man. I would have JBF at the top of this list. Having Lewis and Ighodaro in the mix lessen this need a bit because we at least have bodies that can develop behind Theo.

3) Dawson Garcia. He would certainly be a take-him-no-matter-what type player, but in terms of roster balance, he's not as essential as he was before we had other forward options. He's simultaneously at the top of the desire list and lower down on the need list.

4) Transfer. Personally, I think the best year-in-residence transfer we can get makes sense, though a grad transfer could be a significant benefit, especially if there's a perceived lack of scoring going into 2020-21. This could also go to a project player or redshirt target. Does not need to be an immediate contributor.

I agree with this.  This gives them room to add a transfer and a late bloomer in the spring. 

[Johnny B]

Did we cool on Suggs or?

[TallTitan34]

Suggs pretty much sounded like a Gonzaga lock but months have gone by and he still hasn't committed to them so maybe the door is open.

He's referred to other Gonzaga commits as "we" before so I still think he ends up there.

[Nukem2]

Is Suggs still looking at FB?

[dgies9156]

A winner who can get us to the Final Four.

And win it.

Suggs comments on MU in late July.

"When they came in for the in-home visit, they really ran down the plan of what it's going to look like for me. They really just kind of relayed it to (Marquette star) Markus Howard — you got players around you, but ultimately you're the guy to go to. And he told me, 'We're missing that one, big, five-star to really put it all together.' And one thing that he said to me that really stuck with me, kind of hit home, was that I remind him of (former NBA superstar and Marquette product) Dwyane Wade and the type of impact I could have on that program. That hit home. I appreciate that so much — that's an honor to get that kind of comparison."

[GB Warrior]

Agree with all that's been said. We're going to need a banger, but if we're not in on one of the top guys, the marginal return isn't as good as some of the guards/forwards we're in on. A guy that's going to develop over a year or two seems sufficient, or a grad transfer

I liked Matt, but please, not another Heldt.
