Just wanted to make sue “fap fantasy” wasn’t overlookedLast offseason, nobody had Purdue as #1. That’s why it’s healthier to step outside for a few months and enjoy the {insert your crappy version of spring weather} but we can’t because the dopamine hits of new recruiting information (real, imagined or fap fantasy) pulls us back in like Al Pacino..
When you said "soon" were you looking at your watch or the calendar?
I remember people saying he was a possibility if he entered the portal, but I don’t remember “lock” being used.
Yeah, it seemed like the insiders were hearing about some positive talk between the two parties (Illinois and Tyger’s people) but as @ChiefGritty said many times, that one would have just been WAY out there to actually pull off.
I’ve followed recruiting for too long to view anything as a done deal until the kid is actually suiting up for us.
For sure, I feel Domask is being way undervalued simply because he is from the Valley. BU wanted him for a reason. Piper and others are very in tune. They have stated that RJ is more athletic however Domask has a much better skill set and is an upgrade. He was first team all conference and has the focal point if opponents. He was one of the best 5 in the entire Valley! Domask will likely be our best shooter and is solid all round. If RJ was likely to start then why do so many feel Domask who is likely better and brings much needed shooting won't?They can say hello from different positions/roles while on the same court.
Yeh someone had Goode over Domask. I believe Domask starts day one.
That will be interesting to see how this and a few other battles for the starting job and minutes play out.
A good PG will create spacing which will improve our shooting. We need a floor leader with the ball.
Having trouble not seeing Dain as a starter. Playing he, Hawk and Q together gives us rim protection and rebounding. Just don’t know under that scenario if Goode and/or Domask can guard a 2. Lots of mix and match possibilities if both Hawk and TJ are back.
TY needs to work on shooting the elbow jumper and mid-range shot as his size is great against smaller guards to post.
Thanks.
Agree. Domask is what we hope Goode develops into in next couple years.
Do you mean Goode's senior year? He only has two left.
Harmon / Rodgers / DGL
Saturday walk me off the shelf, can someone give me some stats where we shouldn't be worried that would be the backups at PG for us? Dont know much about Harmon, but Rodgers cant shoot the ball and DGL is going to struggle to see the floor from what we've been hearing.
Coleman seems like a pick 22-45 guy to me. I can see teams taking a swing on his potential, with the belief that he has major talent and is a smart player that could benefit a lot of added space and a smaller, more defined role. He's still very theoretical in a lot of ways, but teams know he can defend and the chance of him becoming more consistently like Syracuse-Coleman is incredibly enticing. He's also relatively young in terms of in-game reps. I wouldn't be surprised if he went in the late first to a playoff team that wants to have a guy like him locked up on a cheap contract for 4 years. If he stays in the draft, I'd like to see him land on Golden State with their pass-happy offense.
Yes I think Domask is already the player we hope Goode develops into.
Yeah if RayJ gets hurt that would be an issue.
