Gates is the one who is pursuing Kirk

Me and my fuzzy memory

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.

Figueroa is very very good

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?

The OG thread was less than a week old and already on page 2 lol

According to UNL it's official

Who would be playing the 5 for us if Roby came back besides Roby?

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.

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.

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

6'3" Guard out of Georgia, also has a St John's offer

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

He means that a 3pt basket is worth 1.5 2pt baskets.

You have about 7 months to figure out how to stream/project a carrier pigeon onto your TV

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.

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.

I'm curious as to what percentage of the guys we've offered are 6'5". It feels like 33-50%.

Ah. Not 100% sure on Hepburn and we didn't offer Sallis previously. FWIW Gates might be our new unofficial local recruiter as he recently has followed both of them on twitter. I would think our interest level in both is still there. They're both 2021 so we have some time.

I only see kenpom national rank yellow

Andrew White Marcus Perry Bear Jones

The issue i see with the OP with replacing our current players with newer ones (besides the pretty obvious likelihood we will likely not land many if not all of the names listed) is the logistics of putting a team on the court this year if you want to fill it up with players from 2020. Any of the guys that one thinks could transfer this year could just as easily transfer next year.
