I would say less than zero if possible
ACLs are usually a 2-year injury in basketball. I don’t think I’d take him because he could just re-enter the portal gain after next year’s season of rehab. Unless you’re confident you could keep him for 2 years
I agree with watching his minutes but 22-24 is a long ways from 30. A lot of bad can happen in those 6-8 extra minutes he’s not on the floor. There isn’t a coach in the country that would play one of his best three players under 30 minutes. Injuries are a part of every sport. Just gotta let ‘em play sometimes
Cardinal & Gold Clones handle obviously already taken….
I think a power forward with athletic ability would be just as good as a tall Chat type in this system. Think of Robert Jones but an inch smaller. He is listed at 6'9 250 pounds.
Exactly….. brings up a question I’ve thought about a few times, I’ll ask it here in case someone knows… because I honestly don’t have any idea what it might be.
How much “commission or fees” do these agents make when one of their clients/players accepts the pay for play offer??
He shot almost 62% on two-point attempts this year. Granted a lot of those are close attempts at the rim, but that's still really really good!
From the Wisconsin boards, it sounds like it will come down to whether Wisconsin has the role he’s looking for
I think he’d replace Gilbert here, so hopefully WI only wants him as a wing
The ASU athletic department is a HUGE financial mess. Like, make-Barta-look-smart bad.
Was here Su/Mo, in Wisconsin yesterday/today.
I suspect Rhode is over valuing himself. The Portal is littered with guys just like him or better in my opinion. Tall guys are making the meat of the money in the portal. Centers and Power forwards with some elite guards getting some pay. I don't think Rhode is anymore Elite than Heise to be honest. In fact end of the year Heise is super solid in that spot.
True. I have ties to ASU through five sons/stepsons who have attended ASU, one of which played baseball and another who's currently on their club soccer team, so they are my second team I root for after ISU. Going to the ISU/ASU basketball game gave me mixed feelings. It was cool to see half the crowd in Cardinal and Gold taking over with chants of "Cyclone - Power", but it was also sad to see such little support for Sun Devils. I like the new AD (so far). He's going to make the baseball team a bigger priority, which I like. That's the one team I can root for since ISU doesn't have an NCAA baseball team. Baseball at ASU is in the same spot wrestling seems to be at ISU. Both programs have a great history of being a perennial power, but have fallen in recent years and are trying to get back there. Also, both programs have elite facilities and a strong fan base.
Didn't they just spend a ****ton on their football roster this past season?
Great Moogly! The way he scores on every play, I expect him to be a 25ppg player for us next year.
Seriously, seems like a very talented player. Excited to see how he fits in.
Thanks for the response. I liked Heise's game all year, I wanted to see him shoot more consistently from 3 the 1st 2/3s of the season but I loved his effort. I think he will shoot a lot better next year, it seems like it takes guys a year in the system sometimes to shoot consistently. I remember back to Kantrail Horton and the effort he gave his first year, even though he couldn't seem to shoot consistently.
I guess if we don't get Rohde, if we want to keep Batemon and Toure maybe we need to develop roles for them. its hard to see both of them getting minutes or even one of them very many minutes if we bring in another guard like Rohde.
This year a healthy ISU team had no ceiling. Next year, I think the ceiling is 3-4th in the league, round of 16 in the tourney, maybe round of 8 with a big upset. It might not be the year to sacrifice those two FR guards development if they are really as good as they think. The other player that doesn't get talked about a lot is Mitchell, he scored a lot of points and had good rebounding numbers too.
The middle-aged fans around here may remember Tim Barnes, who was once described to me by someone close to the team as "has a jet up his a$$". Toure seems to resemble that description!
The lasting memory i have of Tim Barnes is that missed layup against TOE in the NIT. That was him, wasnt it?
