Not being snarky, who are we saving the $ for since we missed on our 2 biggest targets. (I get MD and CoHawk possibilities) I like some names that are going to test draft, would love to see a couple names from that list suit up for the Beloved. Will BU wait to see who withdraws from the draft? Any internationals still on the radar?
We backed off of Storr a week ago. He was not our top target anymore. There are more guys that are going to hit the portal

Scoring is going to come from the players on the team. Do you think we are going to average 50-60 points a game all of a sudden? Brad knows how to coach an offense.

Dip your nuggets in my staff source sauce.
Every guy who doesn't want to play here is soft, so we're getting really lucky they're not all choosing us. This offseason has been golden so far.

Excerpts from a piece about how Dan Hurley views the parents as a critical factor in roster construction.

When pressed on how he evaluates recruits' parents, Hurley said this:

"Have they played on seven different travel teams? Have they transferred to four or five different high schools? When you talk to the parents in the recruiting process, are they constantly complaining about the coaches after a bad game or are you having a conversation where their son has got to do more, got to play harder, he's got to work on his skills. They tell on themselves. They drop hints. You've got the wrong type of people around the inner circle of your players, they'll sink your program."


Great find!

I looked up both Cam Spencer and Marcus Domask’s seasons in 2020-21. There is a discrepancy in their waiver claims. Domask got injured in December and missed the rest of the 2020-2021 season. Spencer on the other hand was injured all year long and chose to come back and play the last few games of the 2020-2021 season. I don’t know the NCAA eligibility rules in regard to injuries but it would seem if a player chose to play rather than unable to play at the end of the season that it could interpreted differently.
There is a 30% rule that Domas actually went over but his defense is some of those games were canceled that were earlier counted. That is what his lawyer is banking on.

My question is who in the portal (or remaining to enter the portal) is a better fit for TSJs replacement than Storr?

I mean they said outright the other day if we got OA back we’d be in extremely strong position for Brea. Every program in the country wants Brea and now it sounds like we’re getting OA back.
