Posh Alexander will be 2nd among active players in career steals behind only Ace Baldwin next year, I'm pretty sure
Thanks. I take back my question then.
Are we between Claude or Jones or we would like to take both? Let's hypothetically say Jones doesn't suit up, is Claude good enough to be the 1st scoring option?
I think there is somebody else entering the portal too
If no Jones and Domask's case is probably low chance, who exactly is scoring for us next year? We need an alpha or just a primary scorer and we have a lot of good role players but no stars
If we can get Claude at a discount relative to that TJ sized bag we were presumably saving for a player like Storr/Jones, and use the savings to get a better 5 or fill out the bench more, we could do a lot worse.
I really like Wooga.

Posh, David Jones, AJ Storr and Andre Curbelo were all on that team in 22-23.Didn't Posh play with Jones at St Johns?

We have four years of college data showing that Posh is a lousy outside shooter. I thought the narrative being pushed here is that we were looking for a piece more versatile than a lock-down defender who can’t shoot (see: Sencire discussion).

And Soriano ... How does that team not get 20 wins ...
I'll never forget the game where they mic'd up Sean Miller and Mike Anderson ... The difference between the 2 coaching wise was just so insane ... Which I knew it would be bad ... I had no idea it would be that bad ...
We don't need him to shoot ...

Indy, glad to see you back dropping a few pearls here. UNC Wilmington's Trazarien White just entered the portal. His numbers look pretty good to me: 19.8, 6.8, 1.6; 51% on 2s, 39 on 3s (tho just 2 attempts/game,) 71.6 on FTs, 52.1 eFG; 6'6" 180 lbs; 2.5 TOs/game not great. He is from Texas. The CAA isn't a powerhouse, so it would be a big step up in competition. White played 2 games against majors: at UK, he had 27 & 10, and at Arkansas, he had 28-5. Seems like he might be a good backup plan if DJones doesn't materialize. Thoughts anyone?

Anderson was a 40 Minutes Of Hell system-ball guy in a sport that is moving rapidly away from that kind of program and he always seemed like a weird fit at St. Johns.And Soriano ... How does that team not get 20 wins ...

Unlike Slick Rick, the Patron Saint of outer borough greaseballs. College basketball needs a big time Johnnies team, just for the vibes.
What? Who's tampering? Not here.
Indy, given that statement about David Jones, who would be the pivot for the Shannon replacement if didn't work out?
1-2 returners from last year's team says some serious things about the staff's thoughts on last year's roster 5-13See last sentence of that post ...

I have a close friend who's a diehard St. John's fan. I ended up watching most of their games that season between that and Belo being there. It was shocking how Mike Anderson was fumbling that clearly talented team. A truly dreadful coaching job.And Soriano ... How does that team not get 20 wins ...

And count me in on Posh if he's a possibility. He's an absolute dog and I think Brad could get the most out of him.
