Can we finally talk about our need for an alpha and a big today? I feel like this issue is not getting enough attention.

Well we did talk about the big for a decent bit, yesterday. But it's true we haven't heard much about any potential "alpha" guys lately - presumably some sort of wing or guard from the portal.

But I'm sure this is getting PLENTY of attention from the people that matter - ie Brad and his staff. But for some reason they don't seem to value our input as much as you'd think they would 🤷‍♂️

So looks like we're gonna fill our huge need at the 5 spot from Europe. most notably the talk on this board has been Tomislav (but could be someone lese as well). So where would he rank among portal centers - Tomislav? Top 5? Top 10?

Richmond or Watkins, pretty please. Our bag may not be the biggest, but it's really big. We offer a great showcase (not suggesting others don't, but it's a select few)

side note: I love Demin, but if it's an exclusive or (XOR, nerds), I'm going with ~4 years older, very experienced alphas. I'll believe Demin's coming when the team announces him. Fletch/Sanderson should be a big plus here, kid needs to get stronger

really good stuff there. well worth a listen. thanks

kid is well spoken and thoughtful. analytic. should be a great fit. what's exciting is that he has a world of headroom to grow. he's not even close to a finished product. Fletch/Sanderson should be huge here. also, surround him with ballers and he should flourish offensively.
