1.9 to 3.1 assist to turnover ratio, if this kid was a sr, I'd say what the heck we have 4 schollies but to potentially be on the hook for 3 years, I just don't see it. That said, I bet he ends up here. Being mentioned with a kid like this probably says a lot about how this staff feels about their chances with the bigger fish.

Underwhelmed by the offers but to be fair haven't seen him play so I don't want say anything about his game to knock him. KO did average 14ppg for 2 years and has starting experience.

... and let's not forget CSP does need legit practice bodies to get the young guys ready. He currently only have 9 players to scrimmage.

Ozier is a fun name to say so that is something.

One of the rare times when I don't want a kid to pick us. What's worse is that he'd have to sit a year, so our next coach would be stuck with him.
Would you rather have an open scholly?

Yikes, looked over who they played last year and it looks like 2 decent teams-UConn and Providence and he was abysmal in both games.

Honestly want to know, would he start over Walker or break into a combo of Bolton/Jackson starting at the 1/2?

Man he's little, wondering what the Born haters have to say.

Good luck deleting twins posts

Nothing says their recruiting and our recruiting can't be awful at once.

As bad as this spring is going so far, the incoming class still has some potential. I would much rather have our four guys than what Iowa has coming in right now.

I have to hold out hope there is a viable path out of this. And it would appear that path would just have to be internal development of our remaining guys, addition by subtraction of some of the poor players and troublemakers from last year, and the freshmen.

It could happen. Not that I am betting the farm on it.

But I will still be watching. College sports are supposed to be fun, not a source of woe.

This kid will take up a spot for 2 years minimum, maybe 3. I'd rather just bank it. If he were a GT, I'd say take him just to have bodies but I can't see making that kind of commitment to this kind of player.

He shot 18% vs Uconn, Providence, and UCF. If he's coming here it has to be as a practice player, right?

What the ****. I would rather Fizer's oldest son transfer in from that D2 or D3 school he is at. At least he is 6'6 and looks like he is strong enough to play D1 ball. As one of the biggest Prohm supporters on CF I'm really starting to lose hope in the program under him. I'm not turning my back yet but it's getting hard to over look what's going on.

Not the greatest prospect, but at this point in time, what is CFP to do? Has to get bodies.

I know Prohm & Co have had some bad recruiting misses, and we do need at least 1 immediately eligible, game-changing starter to commit this spring, but let's not sit back and think all 4 open spots need to be immediate game-changers or we bust.

Filling 2 or 3 of our open spots with sit-out practice bodies is just fine. We need some hungry guys in here too to push for playing time in a few years or we can't even freaking practice with a full roster.

He's not a PG, so I'm not sure, would depend on who the primary ball handler was. We'd be absolutely tiny.

Did not realize he was a sit out. Do not want.
