Miles states recruiting want list

[jason2486]

Thurman could become what Ed is hoping to become. TT appears to have more outside game.

I will say he has been spot on with info other than the New Mexico crap

I'd be fine with solid ballers to fill out the roster. We'll see how it plays out.

Take it for what it's worth but the guard that's visiting this week and the center next week have both committed and waiting for visits to finalize.  This comes from the same guy who told me miles was heading to New Mexico 

If this is true just give me Thomas Allen or Chris Darrington and lll be feeling a lot better about next year.

Guessing Thurman gets a lot better as a player if he ends up here 

 

lol...i see what you did there.

 

In all seriousness though his numbers and size look like Ed's (though against lesser opponents) without the injury history.

With Allen and Okeke in the fold, anyone updating their want list?

I am sticking with Jennifer Anniston and Sandra Bullocks!  - I hope Miles gets another big (pipe dream at this point) and another shooting guard.

Still going with:

- Tyler Mayes or Chris Darrington 

-Princeton Grad Transfer

I guess I don't really care at this point.  I can see value in Darrington but now that we got Allen, our need for a perimeter shooter is not as acute and I don't want to upset the apple cart as far as team chemistry.  Darrington is a high-volume shooter and it's yet to be seen how that would blend in with guys who've already started to acclimate.  I'll trust that Miles knows what he want and needs and can identify it when he sees it.  

 

Don't get me wrong:  I liked what I saw of Darrington.  (The Vincennes kid, right?)  If we didn't get Allen, I would really have loved to see us land this guy because I think he's a guy who can get to the rim, etc.  But I'd take a 4-year player who's a 4-star recruit over a juco at this point.  Not sure we need both.  Not with the other guys already on the roster.

 

I do think we need another big boy.  He has to be able to bang, though.  Can the guy from Princeton do that?

He played center at Princeton so he should be capable of doing the Jacobson 4/5 thing.

[Huskerpapa]

Just because the kid will have a degree from Princeton doesn't mean he can't bang with the best of them.  He would be a good addition.

Seems like we should have enough depth to carry another high end transfer that has to sit out.
