  1. He didn't have his own thread somehow He visited April 13th during the Spring game Has thus far taken visits to UConn, has declared for the draft, and is open to returning to UNLV
  2. Ntambwe declared for the draft but that doesn't mean he's staying in it.
  3. Two things 1. I'm pretty sure that Roby has an agent. However, with the rule changes that is permissible now for guys who want to come back. 2. 'Not going to class' as in 'physically not being present in class' isn't the same as 'not completing classes/classwork' and the latter is what I'm assuming that Bartovik is referring to.the Everything is set up for Roby to come back if he chooses and the draft evaluations and workouts will probably be the biggest factor on whether or not he does. (seems doubtful)
  4. Expressed interest = There is a tweet that says we contacted them. It's generally safe to say that until a guy schedules a trip here it's mostly ado about nothing.
  5. Gates is the one who is pursuing Kirk
  6. Me and my fuzzy memory
  7. That's a good question because he had a very unorthodox path. He actually enrolled at New Mexico St in the spring semester of 2017 so technically he redshirted that year. After Paul Weir and assistant Mark Hsu left (Hsu is now at W. Kentucky and Figueroa was to visit there yesterday), Figueroa ended up at Odessa JUCO where he was an All-American. He then ended up at St Johns. Worst case scenario is that he ends up somewhere and has to sit out one to play one. Best case is that he can immediately play somewhere for two years. I suppose it's possible he could have a waiver for the first redshirt year and thus can play two but still has to sit out one.
  8. Figueroa is very very good
  9. Just because someone is working in Chicago doesn't mean they're not keeping up with classwork. Also, if we don't have mechanisms put in place for guys to go early in the NBA draft while keeping up with school then how do we ever expect to get those types of kids to come here and/or have a good APR if they do?
  10. The OG thread was less than a week old and already on page 2 lol
  11. {Phone Rings} Hello, this is Sam, who is this? Hi this is Matt A from the Nebraska Cornhuskers Hey, hold on (in background) Yo Joey it's Nebraska calling Isn't that where Ed Morrow was from? Oh, yeah {back on phone} Hard pass Matt
  12. According to UNL it's official
  13. Who would be playing the 5 for us if Roby came back besides Roby?
  14. Doc has traditionally run a pack style defense that really limits your lane but gives up 3pt looks. The numbers didn't necessarily reflect that sort of extremes the year he was at Iowa St. Most of the defenses under Fred looked like they played fairly passively: Not trying to pressure and attempting to stay home so in an attempt to make you take a poor shot. Most of the defenses defended without fouling. I'm not sure if it will be zone but I suspect it will function a lot like a zone.
  15. National Champions LOTS OF 3s Villanova 2018 - 47.5% of shots were 3pt (12th in Div 1) LOTS OF 2s North Carolina 2017 - 30.3% of shots were 3pt (306th in Div 1) The problem with arguing for or against style is that style itself doesn't determine success. Playing fast or slow is a style. Shooting more or less 3s is a a style. Generating more or less assists is a style. Those 3 national championship teams illustrate how invalid both the arguments that you can't win shooting 3s and you can't win not shooting 3s are. At the end of the day style is a function of how you go about compiling the statistics that actually matter like eFG%,(how well you shoot in a combination of 2s and 3s) turnover rate (not ending possessions without a shot which is effectively a missed shot), offensive rebounding rate (how many extra attempts you get at a shot) and Free Throw rate.
  16. It depends on the makeup of your team. Duke was definitely more efficient from 2 this year as they didn't have many good shooters and Zion hitting over 74% of his 2s
  17. 6'3" Guard out of Georgia, also has a St John's offer
  18. Here is the probable schedule The "first round" of the Caymen Island Classic will likely be a home game. 20 B1G 4 Caymen Island Classic (1H/3N) 1 B1G-ACC (H?) 1 Creighton (A) 5 Home 'pay games' 17 Home - 11 Away - 3 Neutral
  19. He means that a 3pt basket is worth 1.5 2pt baskets.
  20. You have about 7 months to figure out how to stream/project a carrier pigeon onto your TV
  21. Part of the equation is players for next year and Washington St has 5-6 guys on scholarship ATM. This will increase as they sign guys, especially if they're any good.
  22. He seems like Bakari Evelyn where he's a skilled player but not the right amount of height/athleticism for what we want to do.
  23. I'm curious as to what percentage of the guys we've offered are 6'5". It feels like 33-50%.
