Friars vs Hawks S16 Game Thread β€’ Mar 25, 2022 10:43 PM

Anonymous Providence player on David
McCormack:

"He walked in our locker room &
walked right by me. And I'm like,
what the hell is he coming to our
locker room for? And he walked
by me and he tapped Nate Watson on
the leg, and said, 'Lace 'em up,
it's gonna be a long f--king
night.’

@FarmerJayhawk

I know he played a reserve role this season but in every Zaga game I watched (around 10) I didn't see why he was a Top 10 prospect coming in. I see the tools & likely he'll make a jump at some point. Hickman looked more ready this year then him imo

I'd take either in a second.

Ksu is dang excited about Tang. I would be too, can't understand why he didn't break away sooner. Sooo is Bruce looking for another job?

Bruce's next job should be at a Braums handing out ice cream to children.

So, shifting gears to Villanova. Really solid team. Not flashy or uber-talented. Not very big either. But just so fundamentally sound, esp. on defense...

Whoever they get next, that will be a fantastic game. That's is a TOUGH quad.

What's that? Still 0 titles in Spokane for the Charmin Zags? Tough scene.

2022 Transfer Portal Thread β€’ Mar 24, 2022 09:58 PM

@Texas-Hawk-10 My concern is the 4 spot if CB/JWill both leave. I think at least one will be back. I am also not sold on Rice making it to Lawrence however.

Completely agree though as I mentioned the main want is a guard with plus size. Already a few good options in the portal for that with more coming.

Do you think we will be active in the Portal this yr ? - - - I think if we get serious about the portal it will be a WING right ?

Depends on how many departures there are. Just about guaranteed to go for a big guard though. Unless they could fully close on MJ Rice. Honestly I think there are transfers we can add that would be better than him.

No brainer imo

Bidding war coming though I'm guessing. Georgetown thinks they have a shot (which I'm not familiar why) besides him being from the area.

IMG Academy, from Baltimore.

Uh yeah. Would really show we are back if we got him.

Anyone want to take bets that the Chiefs won’t be a top 5 offense?

It was probably the best combo of complimentary players in the league, but this is a fine move in the end. They got a shit ton back for him.

Not gonna bet against Andy and Pat.

Don't think he's KU level tbh.

I was not impressed when I saw him. His HS team has hovered around .500 the last couple years. That doesn't mean he is bad but it does tell you something.

I think there is a good chance he still ends up at Missouri.

A very intriguing transfer from Belmont.

Freshman guard Will Richard 6'5 averaged 12 & 6 on near 47% shooting. Had two 20 point games, scored double figures in 23/33 games, 47 made 3's, 80% from the line. Definitely that big guard with upside. This one will have lots of suitors.

Looked into him.

We could do a lot worse for that big guard spot.
