Over and over again this year we ran into situations where having a third big would have helped. Brad needs to figure out how to build out and keep a full team roster without being able to hand out starting roles. Spots opened up by pushing the current team out the door. Coleman or Dain would have really helped this year. Suspect Coleman would have been much happier as well.

I would have liked Sencire’s and Ty’s defense myself.

You do realize the best programs in the country are loaded with talent, right? Look at all of Florida's bigs. Hell, Tarris Reed came off the bench for UConn.

Do you have any idea how much $ Big Z is getting at Arkansas? When players portal, they move up in $. Are we willing and able to pay that for a 3rd option?

Don't know if he's been mentioned yet, but it seems people are forgetting about Jason Jakstys. Would love to see him be in the role that Humrichous had coming off the bench...except actually make some shots consistently.

I want BU to stay, but since he was hired, Purdue has never missed the tourney and has 3 Sweet 16s, an Elite 8, and a Champ game.

Michigan has 3 Sweet 16s, an Elite 8, and a Champ game.

MSU has 1 Final 4 and 1 Sweet 16, maybe 2 after tonight.

UCLA has 3 Sweet 16s and a Final Four.

Oregon has 1 Final Four and 2 Sweet 16s, maybe 3 after tonight.

USC has 1 Elite 8.

He would be an amazing addition. Senior guard, great shooter, and fletch will get him a little bit stronger. His defense isn't that bad, was dragged down by guys who couldn't guard a shadow.

He would come here not to start? Feel like I'm missing something..

Alright, here we go, take a deep breathe everyone:

Sucky way to go out. Wanted more.

Going into next season, they want guys back-here is what's going on right now (again things can change in this day and age!!)

As of now, Kylan, Morez, and Tomi-95% or more chance to come back
Tre-80%
Jason-75%
One of Jake/Ben-60%
DGL-5%
Booth-not sure I need to say anything here
Ty-10%

NBA guys:
KJ-0%
Will-20/25% (some will disagree, but I am confident there is a slight chance here-would not get your hopes up though)

In terms of portal/euro plan, here is where we stand in time:
Dame Sarr will announce his commitment to Illinois sometime in the next month
They want a backup big (4/5), may have a couple guys visit here soon
Targeting a big time wing-Josh Dix among a couple of others
Vet guard next to Kylan-also are going to have someone visit/try to close the deal in the next week or so. Would be a big time get

Should be a fun offseason. Need to get older. They want shooting and athleticism.

The “need to get older” narrative smells like skunk. Underwood choked this year. All the resources provided and he laid a damn egg again. Amazing what bull you guys try
