While we're on the "de-commit watch" topic... Is Dre Davis de-committing still a possibility? He looked pretty good for Seton Hall this year in booty ball. Would be the perfect add booty ball wise imo. Could def. have a Marcus type impact...

If things don't work out with Kasparas over the next week or so... how likely is it that we get a commitment from Will Riley and he reclasses? How much is that in play...and how much of a possibility is that if we don't land Kasparas? Seems like we're pretty determined to add a talented 17 y/o...

Can't exactly understand why a lot of people have been saying he's better than Egor on here recently. Tell me... Haven't seen him on a single draft board. Egor was a projected lottery pick.

Not over the guy from...

We aren't out on Watkins - he's clearly our main target at the moment and we stand as good a chance as anyone to land him - and he honestly might be the best one out of that group.

His dad was on X talking about the possibility of him playing this upcoming season. So he won't play this upcoming season even if he enrolls mid year? Really? Well...umm...I'm okay with that then I guess... I'm fine with that but...I mean...this would've been pretty good: Guards: Kylan, DGL...

https://www.nba.com/news/8-standout-prospects-2024-draft-combine Uhhhh...who wrote this article? "The lone concern regarding Hawkins’ game may be on defense" What? 😂

A few days ago on this board, there was some talk about the possibility of Fears enrolling mid-year and playing this upcoming season. How much steam does that have? Is that something we're working on and actively pursuing... Or is it something like...door still open but slim chance and not likely?

Thanks for clearing it up. Thought the pipe dream was Watkins and Monsanto. Guess that's out now...Anyways... Just my honest opinion - give me Watkins. It's not to say that we won't be good with going the other directions - I think we'll be okay if either plays out - it's just what fits our...

First of all, he'll get better. Secondly, Uhhhh...who is better than him? Braden Smith - maybe Ballo - maybe Thornton - maybe and...? Can't think of all the names right this moment off the top of my head, sorry if I missed some, but I think that's it. If at worst you're the 4th best player in...

Wasn't trying to sound too negative but...I mean...Watkins to Lathen, Kelly, or Kasparas - that gap is pretty big imo. Watkins - we're talking a likely 1st team All Big 10 guy. Are any of those 3 that level? I think those guys are okay...but I'm not sure if it'd be right to label them on that...

How good is this Kasparas dude? (Projecting) If Egor was five star level, where would he be? Top 50? Top 75? Top 100?
