Josh Davis

I find that really hard to believe when you are talking about top 100 to 150 hoops recruits, regardless of what's written in the scholarship agreement/award.
Other schools could have offered a longer term agreement if we didnt and then kids could go there... depends on how bad you want the kid.

We've played different styles all three years so far. Fred will again adjust next year to play to our highest potential.
 
Forgot that Davis can play immediately.. He would likely fight for minutes with Niang, Ejim, and Gibson for that matter. Would likely see poultry minutes off the bench. Would be a good replacement for Ejim next year, but if memory serves he only has one year of eligibility.

So he's dressing in an ISU chicken suit if he signs with CFH? Maybe he'll be hired by Pizza Ranch.

Sorry, I couldn't leave this one alone. :-D
 
Considering Percy Gibson's inconsistent effort last season and spotty playing time, plus having two JUCO bigs coming in next season, I wonder if CFH maybe encouraging Gibson to transfer seeing that he'll have very little playing time. Bubu gave the team his best effort consistently, only he was rusty having to sit out almost two-thirds of the season. I expect Bubu to be significantly better next season since he'll be able to practice with the team full time. Davis maybe taking Gibson's scholly if he signs?

Again, no one knows what we're getting with the new guys, particularly Edozie and Amardi. We had 6 scholarships available this year out of a possible 13. The fact that we're bringing in six guys doesn't necessarily mean that Fred thinks the holdovers can't play. It could just mean that we needed six guys to have a full roster.

Hoiberg said on a Monday call-in show that Gibson will be competing for a starting spot next year. If Fred thought that he would encourage Percy to leave, he wouldn't put that out there.
 
Bubu won't make a significant improvement. He will improve a little just like he previously has. He just doesn't have the ceiling to make a huge jump. Morris has a far greater ceiling, and could more than likely be better even as a freshman just off pure talent.
 
Has anyone heard anything that would confirm the post on the Pitt/IL boards that this info came from?

No- that post was refuted and was labeled as "not accurate" by the mod of that website. That same mod indicated that Davis was most likely to attend NC State.

Davis has been in Raleigh for the past few days (it is also where he is from) and his verbal to NC State is expected by this weekend according to the NC State scout website

I hope it is not true though

May be some small hope here. His close NC State coach left the Pack and it appears NC State may not be in as strong of a position as once thought. Pitt has visited him at Tulane and Illinois also appears to want him. I would love it if we found a way on this one
