After those two, I am pretty flexible.  I would maybe flex towards youth/projects/specialists.
 

Igor and Kyle.  Not that I'm begging.  Okay, I am begging.

We have moved on from Joseph.  Griffith got the nod over him.   Joseph rebounding stats poor. 

Hopefully, but these kinds of decisions are made every day at portal time.   How far to go on NIL with each player/agent, figuring out what's real, drawing a line knowing that's effectively letting a guy go.   I'm probably stating the obvious, but this is so much about money now, rather than a better fit at a new program, etc.   And on the program end, there comes a point where the price is higher than the player is good, and you have to keep some dry powder.   
 
The good news is in the play for pay era, our new AD is totally committed to that, and will overtly support 1890 until the system changes and allows direct institutional participation or changes to an employee model.   Fred is very pleased with Dannen so far.   Fred has almost double what he had to work with on the pay players budget from a year ago.  We're all in on the current system.
 
We're really trying to get a visit from Payne, but the NIL demands are very, very high.  We're getting a visit from Essigian, assuming he doesn't commit to Indiana on his visit there.   Kyle supposed to come next weekend but concerned about Wake giving him a huge number, like they did Sallis.  

We don't need to sell our soul or completely change course, but we do need to get more athletic to successfully compete on an ongoing basis.   It's not an all or nothing thing.

Maybe we can find another Lincoln player that wants to come home...

Think about this.  We now have two legit point guards that are penetraters, pass first, and strong defenders.  And oh yeah, Brice has shown he can play point guard; and then there is that kid named Sam.

Didn't turn him down directly, but indirectly, we declined to dig deep and come close to what Xavier was willing to pay.

Malique Ewin. We're still in the mix

Former Nebraska guard Jamarques Lawrence has committed to Rhode Island, he announced on Instagram. Lawrence spent two years at NU and has two more seasons of eligibility remaining.

Whatever has become of the top JUCO post player that Fred went to see a couple weeks ago?

I wouldn't be surprised if we turned him down rather than vice-versa...just saying!
