All this May stuff

[RU72]

Yes,Rutgers is losing someone but everything will work out.
Gavin will end up starting,will be at Rutgers in June and is ready for prime time.

Kante is still wide open but for many reasons Rutgers is not in the picture.

Cliff is still very likely back,as is Paul.

No holiday tourney game.

MSG is out,but Barclay's appears in play.

Northwestern and Ohio State got much better and Penn State is now decent.

Davis is coming.

2024-5 should be beyond exciting and Rutgers will be at the RAC and not a relocated building.

Steve is on top of things and I see the Karl Hobbs departure as a long run positive with the caveat that Ndongo might have started this season. He is a real stud.

 

[RutgersNo1]

Damn I hate Brooklyn.

 

[RUDave_01]

There are more positives than negatives in that list.

I'm very excited to see Gavin light it up on the court this year!

Losing ndongo hurts much more than mag. That really sucked.

When you say everything will work out, are you alluding to us bringing someone else in from the portal to replace him?

With the loss of Mag and Ndongo, this is a small team with only Cliff getting rebounds.
Help is needed on the boards.

The Ndongo thing still pisses me off. That was a late under the radar guy that Pike was all over

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Losing ndongo hurts much more than mag. That really sucked.

I highly doubt Ndongo will have anywhere near the impact on a college team than Mag had on Rutgers last year. Rutgers went from a Top 15 team to a 150s type team after he left. I realize there were other non Mag factors involved, but he was the primary reason.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

If we are so sure Davis is coming why hasn't he signed. He hasn't gotten around to it? Or is he leaving the door open to other possibilities?

I don't blame ANY player for leaving options open.

 

[knight_ru]

A NJ player just entered the portal from UK … Lance Ware. He would be a nice fit into the front court.

I'm surprised Ware stayed at Kentucky so long

 

[Scangg]

I'll probably never truly get over losing out on Big Dong if he ends up fulfilling his potential

Gavin starting.... does he or Paul guard the other team's 4?

Fernandes Cam Gavin Paul Cliff. A big plus 4 guys who shoot 35+ % from 3. Points are coming

If your gonna keep calling him Big Dong, I'm kinda glad he's not coming

Paul would have to guard the 4 for the most part imo while Gavin adds muscle.

Rough minute distribution pending transfers (keeping in mind positionless basketball)

PG: Fernandes (26), Simpson (14)
SG: Spencer (32), Simpson (8)
SF: Griffiths (24), Mulcahy (16)
PF: Mulcahy (16), Hyatt (16), Chol (8)
C: Cliff (32), Woofolk (8)

Davis should RS unless there’s an injury. I don’t think he’ll be better than Simpson.

We will definitely struggle defensively without Mag.

From Camden.
I guess he wasn't tight with the two Camden kids headed to Kentucky this season.

There's also a Jersey kid at Kansas who just entered, Kyle Cuffe Jr

His replacement being palmquist and reiber was the main reason. Replace him with a big ten level player and the drop off would have been much less significant.

Continued thanks for the insights and thoughts.

You need a big dong to protect the rim in this league

That’s a terrible rebounding team.

Karma gonna smack him in the face sometime , somewhere .

If we were worried about Reiber and Palmquist I can't wait to see the reaction to Chol playing 8 MPG

Redshirts are rare so doubtful Davis does

Hardly any college BB players redshirt unless they are hurt. Davis is a true point guard with ballhandling skills. Simpson is not a very good ball handler. There we’ll be times this year when when Fernandez is out of the game that we will need someone to break the press and initiate the offense. Davis may not play a lot, but there are times he could be very useful.

So do you keep Hobbs and suffer with an atrocious offense or suffer a bit and develop a moderately capable offense?

 

[Scarlet Blind]

Lance Ware was a consensus top 50 in Cliff's class. It wouldn't be a bad risk and it fills the Ndongo, possibly Mag need.

Totally confused. So the bad news may lead to good news? Or is the bad news canceled?

That’s a terrible rebounding team.

Don't have to worry about rebounds when all the 3s are falling 😉

 

[MV9000]

Ru72 keeps me coming to this site lol.

I’m hoping it’s not aware although he has great size. Underwhelming stats although UK, cycles in top talent every year so he could of just not been as good as the next 5 star coming in

Cliff, Cam, Paul, Caleb, if any of them went down, it would have just as bad or worse.
Zero margin for error with that team.

Oh geez, just when I was about to get some work done 😃 😃 😃
