Had 18 and 9 against LSU earlier this year.

He needs to grow the hair a little more.  And he'll only be 23 next season.  Also, I have no idea if he wants to start a trucking company.

So what you're saying @hhcmatt is he's a...PERFECT FIT FOR OUR SYSTEM???

In all seriousness the assist numbers seem to indicate you could run your offense through him the same way we did with Derrick

[AuroranHusker]

Good fit. Particularly interested in if Mack were to pursue saddling up with a certain "Tall Boy Trucking" company upon graduation. Probably has a Mack truck already. 

[Norm Peterson]

The comparison to Derrick seems very appropriate.

 

 

[Norm Peterson]

He's out w/ some highlight vids just in time to announce he's transferring. Still, comparison to Derrick very apt.

 

 

[Norm Peterson]

We could show this kid some videos of Derrick that would show him exactly how he could fit in our system.

 

I will say he seems to have a bigger butt than Derrick, which allows him to create space down low.

Wofford has been to the tournament and I think it has a good basketball pedigree.

[HB]

This will be a fun portal season.  A lot of prospects already reaching out.  We’re going to be selecting vs. recruiting this time around.

If Wofford would have had a Japanese 3 point shooter that Mack ran some two-man plays with we'd have a better comparison.

Me likey 

[AuroranHusker]

I can already picture the..... MACK ATTACK !

 

 

[Norm Peterson]

Derrick Walker clone? Or taller, better shooting version of Juwan Gary?

I was thinking we're gonna need to see more footage of him bring the ball up the court and passing from the high post to really know for sure.

[Dead Dog Alley]

Mack probably would transition fairly well into a DW-type role next year.

 

So would this guy:

 

[B-town hoopsfan]

Feel he is far to skilled to seriously consider us but time will tell.  Walker was not the player he is today back when he transferred here. 

[AuroranHusker]

 

Chris Ledlum entered the transfer portal on Tuesday. He’s in the portal as a graduate transfer, which means he did not have to wait for the NCAA’s designated transfer window to begin.

 

Listed at 6-foot-6, Ledlum was Harvard’s best offensive player this past season. The Crimson finished the year with a 14-14 record.

 

Ledlum averaged 18.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.8 steals, 1.5 assists and 1.1 blocks per game for Harvard this past season. He led the Crimson in points, rebounds and steals.

From looking at the list, my money is not on Marist 

[Dead Dog Alley]

The Harvard of the Plains beckons

[Norm Peterson]

His career 3-pt% is about 30. I think I'd rather have John Tonje if he entered the portal.

Agree. It's about finding the right players, not the best players. Juwan Gary will demand a lot of minutes next year, assuming he's healthy. I don't like the fit of Ledlum and Gary at the 3 and 4, with whoever else at the 5. 

[REDitus]

Great fit for 5 out offense or high post offense.    Would love to see him pick the Huskers.
