Yep.  He’s taller than Gary and an outstanding spot up shooter.  He also plays way above the rim.  He’d be an awesome get as a versatile 3-4.  

 

That's a skill that this past year's team needed a bit more of, I'd be in favor of it happening more often for the Big Red in 2024-25. GBR Always.

He's 6'7" and can shoot 3s. I get why we're interested

Id like to see an increased volume on those, but him knocking them down is a good sign for future shooting growth.

Iowa State now has commitments from two portal post players. It was thought that Kyle was priority #1 for them. 

And they have JT Rock sitting in the wing after redshirting a year. So that's 3 bigs, with two being portal additions, without knowing too much what about the roster

Hopefully good news for us. Schaefer (I think) said he wants to be close to home. He’s been #1 on my portal wish list since months before he entered.

Mine too. His athleticism and defense should both be immediate assets to the team.

Yes, it would be a great pull. I'd take a Fidler on the Roof as well to set up a dynamic Bell West duo.

According to his Rutgers bio, Gavin Griffiths:

 

"was ranked the No. 20 recruit in the country (247 Sports)" and "was upgraded from a four-star recruit to a five-star recruit in January of 2023."

 

Replies to the email linked above say Griffiths will be a "Friar."

But how's this for a Fred Hoiberg recruiting niche: taking former five stars that underperformed elsewhere (e.g., Griffiths and Biliew) and developing them into what they were projected to be?  That would be cool.

He was also a 5 star on Rivals until their final rankings came out. He ended up the highest 4 star, one spot behind 5 star status.

Who is this Schaefer of whom you speak? Just wondering.
