Eric Dailey Jr. 6’8” Point-forward that played some small ball 5 for Ok St
He would improve our offense. As would Milan taking a step forward and using his tremendous skill to get good shots, rather than using it to make some tough shots

Having a top six of Lipsey, Gilbert, Jones, Momcilovic, Jackson, and Dailey is absolutely insane. If Rock and Omaha are ready for decent minutes then this would be so sexy.
I hate that Fish is gone because he is a local kid here, but I want the best roster and I think whoever we get in the portal will be an upgrade.
Whelp, after finding out that Fish and Hamilton are both gone I’m all for adding a 2/3 in addition to a good 4/5. Dailey and the dude from Colorado and we are right up there.
So who's next, Bielew or Watson?
Watson will get minutes next year. I hope he doesn’t leave. Omaha needs to look at his future. Can other coaches develop him better than TJ and Green? He’ll have the opportunity to get minutes in the Big12 if he develops. If he doesn’t, it doesn’t matter where he goes.
If a freshman isnt an absolute stud and a building block of your program, they are going to the portal. You want your roster as old as possible. This is the new age of NIL college basketball.
Doesn't the roster get older by keeping the freshman? Guys like Fish and Hamilton leave as you bring in guys you hope fit in, but might be like Omaha this year? I don't get it and I don't like it.
To an old-timer like me, NIL college basketball is making college basketball less interesting.

My point is just that I think a lot hinges on if he’s able to be an important rotation player next year. Skogs wasn’t, that’s the comp, I’m not saying I think Rock will be a bust. Thanks for making your point without cursing at/insulting me, some posters struggle with that. Skogland wasn't a...

Two guys I got to watch some this year that caught my eye today in the portal --
Danny Wolf, Yale's 5. The Ivy doesn't allow them to take their (5th) COVID year so there have been a lot of good players going somewhere for a year in a bigger leage. REALLY skilled player - handles the ball, passes, shoots well, creates off the dribble and has an array of post moves. And he's 7 ft.
Gavin Griffiths - 6'8" freshman shooter from Rutgers. Very highly recruited. He looks kind of goofy - the goggles don't help - but he is a shooter that is springy. Runs the court well and can handle it on the break some. I think he went through a bit of a confidence thing and he sometimes didn't have Rutgers' ISU-like phsyical defense down 100% but, man, he has talent. He's a Connecticut kid with 3 years left so the Midwest may not even be a consideration but dude's got game.

Colorado’s JVonne Hadley
Geo Mason’s Keyshon Hall
SDSU’s William Kyle
Anybody else so far?
He needs to develop and if he does, he has a clear path to lots of PT here
But we’re not great fit.
I had thought his athleticism in combination with our priority on elite defense would mean it’s an ideal fit, than a place that values offensive skill
I was dead wrong. We value defense execution, and he doesn’t have the instinct. On offense, he’s limited in half court, and would benefit from a more pace and space where he can just use his raw athleticism
He’d see the court faster, and thus develop, somewhere that doesn’t demand execution on team defense at an elite level, and hides his limitations on offense better
Honestly, a Creighton type
Not surprised at all by any of these developments with the exception of Fish.
Pav was in over his head athletically. Unsure on Hamilton, but it was going to be a battle for minutes with Jones, Gilbert, Lipsey going to get nearly all the backcourt minutes. Throw Pierce and Nojus into the mix and there is not a ton of opportunity in the backcourt.
Optimistically, Fish leaving suggests that TJ has been honest with him about portal targets. Would not be surprised to see us pull a new starting 4 man to go along side Jackson.
Omaha is a huge question mark right now.
