I think you recruit freshman that will come in a fit a role and might develop into an all conference type, and when available and within reason take the swings at those top 50 players (Bryce McGowen) especially when they have connections to the university. I tend to like Hoiberg strategy right now, frager/nano fit my expectations, as did Rice last year was also that type. Transfer/grad are more reliable you know there production level

Crazy world, but I’m happy that Rhule is pushing this kids to make their visit during spring practice, and practices in general, I remember when I was looking at colleges for football, I’d see the game day environment, everyone is all smiles and energy is great, but I was in for a shock my first fall camp and spring camp, coaches are different energy is different and your just like what did I get myself into, I like that these kids are seeing this at NU

Shock the world and bring a title to Bellevue University? Go Bruins?!

Rationally.. MSU, but in my heart creighton, as yet again we have a chance to get some home grown talent that’s prospered elsewhere back at NU, and yet again they spurned, and this time it’s 3 players that would make a big time difference for us

We had a great season, lot of good positive vibes and momentum.. this just seems right, I’m ready to be hurt again

We can agree (as I know that I will not uphold this agreement when we sign some 7’1 young man from England by way of Nigeria, and I blow his highlights way out of proportion, and talk myself into him being all conference in 3 years, as I forgot all prior evidence that these rarely stay 3-4 years)

It’s always plus to have a guy like this, just a guy that knows how to run and lead a team, it comes in real handy in February and March when games get tight, I really like this signing, as KZ said allows Brice just to be a free flowing playmaker, whoever they bring in as another vet guard just be a scorer and if we can get Ulis up to speed allows Hoiberg to just be a good solid backup guard and he dosnt need to try and run offense

Griffiths, Worster, Hickman, close it out with Kyle III sounds good to me

Forgot about Ola Joseph thanks!

who are we seriously in the running for(this isn’t me questioning, just saying it out loud to try and track the portal) We need another big man ( Hugeley, Kyle, Payne?, are we hoping the other two will wait til The end of the month til Kyle makes a decision?) Can the millic kid play wing/guard wings and than for PG? The Bradley kid or the other transfer from Utah, is that basically all? It’s hard to keep track!

I gotta say of his options, Michigan State can hide his defiances the best, they always have a slower footed shooter that succeeds, because they 1, 4,5 are just straight dawgs on defense most years. I think he’ll really struggle at Wisky, and Creighton could be his second best option as they always seems succed with his type of play, but they just aim to outscore any one in Big East,

I have zero inside info, but Kyle looks like he’s wanting something bigger, and Fidler seems like its east omaha, or a reunion with chucky. Idk im hoping wrong, but I feel likes it’s the Sallis deal all over again

Not the news I wanted to hear

I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think we’re getting either of Kyle or Fidler, Kyle wants to take a visit to Wake Forest, and Fidler im guessing goes to either the evil empire (flying blue-rats) or the first order (wiscansin). I was hopeful but the vibes are off. I hope we can get the Rutgers transfer, and than figure it out from there.

This could be a play to force WK11 hand, like hey we really like this guy, if your N, be N if not we’re going a different way

What’s Blaise status like can we count on him next year?

Agreed, to me he almost a must get because he upgrades that Allick role, and allows Mast ( if he returns) to be hidden on defense a little bit, and maximize energy on gang rebounding and offense, and than when we got small with (Gary also assuming he returns) that offense is even scarier, this would be a fantastic get

William Kyle III of So Dak St in the portal… him, fiddler, and if the basketball gods are nice to us Hepburn solve a lot of our issues next season and being three homegrown talent home l wouldn’t mind that at all. Add in another 6-8 to 7 foot guy for depth

I think rice is gna make a big jump, and ik he had some defensive lapses and he had minimal playing time but Diop had some nice moments and I would mind him getting some run. But I areee we need a big, another athletic big 6’8 to 6’10

Be super nice for Mast to be able to grab a rebound or two.. smh

I wouldn’t mind WK3 coming to NU, met him at my wife’s church, great kid

I noticed around the under 5 mark in the 1st half , there was a possession that Keisei was doing his curry impression with Brice wide open at the 3 off the elbow and Brice just shook his head, like he knew no matter what KT is putting it up. Than after that Sota put up back to back points on KT and Gary was kinda yelling at this direction. Could be something, could be nothing but it’s def something that could bite us in March.. the 14 team didn’t really have this problem I don’t think, shields respected Petteways heat checks, and petteway knew shields was his automatic secondary go to, with Walter available in the corner.

I was saying this all night to my father in law, Illinois in the top the of the second half was killing is getting to the basket anytime they wanted. We need a James Palmer type, I like Brice but he dosent have that mentality that James had, we’re a top 15 team if we have James on this team

Damn… definitely want this Kid, Nelson is a pipe dream, but this seems real and if we don’t get him, would be really disappointed, he’s a piece we need

Good call on Copeland forgot he was mid year
