There are plenty of Gatorade Player of the Years who aren't even D1 players every year.

Jayden Miranda, Layden Kauka, likely Jordan Carlson (although he's only a junior), Nolen Ames, Lincoln Rogers, Uzziah Sanders, David Lunn (another junior, so could develop into a D1 player), Sam DeGroot, and Gibby Williams (another junior) are all either seniors not playing D1 basketball next year, or juniors with no D1 offers that won Gatorade POTY winners this year.

So I'm guessing there have been plenty of Gatorade POTYs to redshirt their freshman season.

Interesting. I suppose it makes sense in some of the smaller states especially.

How often to Gatorade Players of the Year redshirt? Gotta be close to never I imagine. At least for guys that are healthy.

In small states.... all of the time.

Things continue to go well at Georgetown.

Just the kind of 1-year Rent-A-Gunner that Gard uses to craft a first-weekend exit. Go for it, Greg!

Brian Butch was a McDonald's All American and red shirted at Wisconsin.

[Hards Alumni]

You realize most rotations go 7-8 deep, right?

*narrator's voice*

He didn't

Things continue to go well at Georgetown.

Transfers were a problem well before Ed Cooley. There's not a lot of player loyalty to a last place Big East team drawing as few as 2,000 a night in some games, and NIL doesn't help.

It bears repeating that Georgetown is not a place where there is a line out the door with donors willing to hand over six and seven figure checks to group that represents less that two percent of its student-athletes. In that respect, basketball is no longer the institutional priority it may be at other Big East schools, MU included.

Bo Ryan was a psycho, though.

Sir Mohammed entered the portal..

He is really bad.

But you never know

Has the banquet been announced yet? I haven't seen anything. I'm guessing that we'll hear about the departures after the banquet

Portal window opens April 7th.

Anyone entering the portal should enter before that date.

Yikes.  Forgot about him and just looked him up.  Brutal

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Gard continues to get it done.

not bad for a three point sniper at the 2

Would be nice to get an in-state kid.

Anton Bonke out of Charlotte. Great name and good height.

[burger]

Not interested in any one under 6'10" and 220 as a big....

And a combo guard who shoots 38 to 43 parent and makes 80 percent of his free throws...

[mileskishnish72]

He could drive you Bonkers.

[muwarrior69]

Does anyone play better in games than in practice?

Ask Shaka, he knows.

Nobody should shoot that many parents

We have enough bad players that i just want good players

Anybody Shaka brings in, either as a transfer or a recruit, is bad. He's a bad recruiter and a bad coach. He needs to be fired yesterday and replaced with someone who only brings in good players. Right?

I am now an anti-shaka smart guy, because I want 7-8 Big east level players on the roster

If Sheek is towards the back of the rotation he is going to transfer after the 26-27 season.  Ideally, he's the first big off the bench, backing up a one-year starter at the 5.  And then he's ready to step in as the starter the following season.  Shaka is not going to recruit a back-up big to player over Sheek nor should he. I honestly don't see why anyone would disagree with this approach.

As for Owens, he shouldn't be expected to start and should earn whatever minutes he does get.  I still think he has a high ceiling.

It takes bigs more time to acclimate themselves to the college game than it does guards. Skilled guards are more ready than bigs. Nigel James was ready for action day 1 as reported first by Panda last offseason.

Bouncy bigs like Sheek are not used to going against guys bigger and stronger than them. Not saying he won't get there, but expecting an impact from him next year in a position we sorely need instant contributors is just not right. Ideally, we pick up a starting center and a 20-25ish minute 4/5 type player who can spell both positions. It's unrealistic to expect the impact we need from him as a first guy off the bench type.
