Well, he only has six offers. I think he's probably going to play out this summer and see what happens with the dead period before making any decisions.

Dalano confuses me.  On this year's team, he does seem to be the best option we have to start at the 1.  And I know Fred likes positionless basketball, non-traditional PGs, etc etc etc (cue 'King and I' voice).  But I just cannot for the life of me figure out who Dalano is on offense and how he fits long-term.  He will be good for 1-2 passes per game that only he can make due to his length and vision at the top of the key.  But once he starts moving with the ball...yikes.  Accuracy on his passing drops like a rock.  And he isn't the greatest finisher at the rim, nor a good free throw shooter.  And we already knew he wasn't a good 3pt shooter.
 
I'm not advocating chasing the kid off.  He has enough raw tools to keep him an intriguing prospect all the way until his eligibility expires.  But man...I thought we would get more from him this year.
 
 

They’ve only played 4 games so far and his team is 2-2. He started 3 and came off the bench for the other. They are definitely not as good as a whole with the team this season compared to last year. 
 
13-29 shooting

for his averages in the 4 games. 

Fred Hoiberg and Co. recruited Teddy Allen, Delano Banton and Derrick Walker in the first class.
The second class includes Trey McGowens--which also results in the signing of his five star brother.
Next year's class, including that brother, is a top-25 class.
We have a great start on 2022 with a highly-sought big.
The fact that Delano couldn't play the first season and Derrick couldn't play the first season and a half is significant in difficulties that have occurred--not to mention the pandemic-induced, month-long shutdown.
 
My vote and confidence on recruiting knowledge, judgment and prowess is with Hoiberg and Co.  
 

75% so far this year. Upgrade!

Hope your hand is okay ;)

Wow. Sex AND a Nebrasketball win?! This has been a great Valentine's Day for me.

Not a direct response to your question, but I do feel like Fred has been a lot better lately about recognizing when Teddy needs to come out and when to leave him in.  What used to be 5-7 mistakes and drives into traffic has turned into 1-2 and a trip to the bench.  He seems to come back much more level headed after taking the trip to the bench too.

Damn that was a hell of a 10 minutes we played!!  Gotta give it to the players and coaches. They definitely left it all out there..  now for the final 30.  No comment on that garbage

That game was like watching Jeff Settles in HD

Well #4 for Wisconsin just shot two of the ugliest looking free throws I have ever seen at the college level.   

That guy shoots free throws like we do. Why didn't we scout him?

So Lakes gets the start...  odd but okay.  Then he doesn’t play again the rest of the game..  I’m guessing the Lakes experiment might be over but who knows. Next game he will prolly play 40 minutes..🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

And who should have been kept off Miles last roster? Miles was heading in to a major rebuild himself. The prized recruit that season is averaging 1 PPG this season at Pacific. There is a reason what was left of Miles roster none of them ended up at power 5 schools. And some are really struggling at mid major schools...check Brady Heiman and Karrington Davis. Nana is about the only productive player and even he’s shooting under 40%. 
 
This was/is a major rebuild and a crappy time to go thru it to boot with Covid. We need to hit some home runs and fast. 

Nothing to say this time I haven't said the last 23 times we played in conference.

I checked his game log if you have another source I’d definitely like to compare but it has him going negative 5 of the last 6 games 3 of them in the double digits.  I’m just wanting to have a game where we have all three guards being productive, I can’t think of a game yet where that can be said.  I could be wrong though.

Banton plays too soft, and no one loves the kids skillset more than me.  He needs to take a Trey McGowens class on effort.  Without him asserting himself into our offense, we are going to struggle.
 
Teddy Allen may score points in bunches, but is his play what Hoiberg is looking for?  I struggle watching his game, it makes me cringe. His lazy turnovers, lazy defense and inability to jump for rebounds are equally as bad as the ugly buckets he grabs in bunches is good.
 
Webster should start over Thor
 
Lat Mayen needs to take the three when it's in rhythm, and stop putting the damn ball on the floor.  He needs to be more involved on both ends of the floor.  So far I feel we are not getting his best effort.
 
Yvan is definitely getting better.  Had one of his better outings tonight.
 
McGowens = Our leader and Hoiberg better start taking notice
 
As far as the game goes I am glad we didn't let the game get out of hand after MSU got up 17 in the second half.  I know Allen got us back in the game, but he also a large part of the reason we were down that much in the first place.
 
Last but not least... WE DRIBBLE WAY TOO MUCH!

I'd just be interested to see if Yvan could score against himself.

Man this team is horrible. 
 
Hoiberg’s “we are better shooters than the numbers show” is starting to really sound Scott Frostish.
