Out of Plummer's top 5 teams, how would you guys rank them from most likely to least likely? (Illinois, Florida, Georgia, Texas Tech, BYU)

Anybody need a new Plummer? Saturday will be your lucky day!

Plummer: Yeah, he's good. Butt I'm not certain he'll be able to crack the starting line-up.

Assuming we get one of AM or Plummer this weekend, if Ntambwe wants to commit do you take him?

A bit of a risk have 1 more commit than ride available, but I think there’s a better than 50/50 chance either Kofi leaves or we have further attrition. Worth the gamble to me.

Sure we have some incredable guys coming in....but don't forget a player named Coleman Hawkins! He's much better than I EVER thought!
I'll be honest, I'm kind of disappointed you did not post the video where Coleman get a "T" for sticking his tongue at an opposing player with mickey/bullwinkle ears. Cracks me up every time - it brings me a small slither of hope that he has that Joakim Noah tenacity to mess with peeps.

I want Mac McClung as the replacement for AM. How is he not higher ranked than AM?! The guy is tough as nails, proven guy at the top levels, and would fit what we need in a 1/2 guard.
Mac and AM had nearly identical shooting percentages and offensive efficiency ratings, though Mac took over 100 more shots. They rebound at about the same rate. I don't know a ton about Mac's defense, but I'd be willing to bet a beach house Adam was better on that end. Adam has 4 years of eligibility, Mac has 2.
Mac gets to the FT line more often.
Adam is a bit taller.

Adam should definitely be rated higher than Mac.

I don't mean to assume we don't get Plummer, but do we have another transfer backup plan if AM falls through. Whether Trent is coming or not...?

Players seem to still be entering the portal at a steady rate. When will that activity slow down -- and is there a deadline for declaring? Or is it simply available 365 days a year?

I ask realizing that some of our own guys could still declare (hopefully not Curbelo and Kofi, and 8-9 others).

Hoping both Trent and Adam return, but if neither return, it would be a bummer if we also lose Plummer.
