It doesn't hurt if you have a guy on that squad that wants to work on defense as well.
Yep, maintaining that relationship with MIF wouldn't hurt Billy Boy, either.

Early practice reports confirm this.
That may have been the joke.
I would switch Aaron with Andres Feliz. Loren Tate said he is the real deal and sure to start.
I don't see sitting a 6'5" shooter/rebounder for a 3rd pg who is 6'2". He better play defense and he didn't show it in the clips.
We don't know Trent and Ayo will start. I do believe all three players will get plenty of burn at PG, even if only 1 can start. The rest of their minutes will come at the 2G spot.
AD, AF, AG, AJ.....
I’ll bet there will be an A starting.

Practice reports are always accurate. JK
Trent
Ayo
AJ
Kipper
Ebo
This should be pretty easy to see , now after that we rotate people , which who ever gets hot will get minutes, or defense situations. BU needs to see how different group's work together, at times we may need different sets, his coaching and staff need to shake it out, 8 man rotation would be ideal, with others getting minutes, not always same 8 will start out but once he gets them in flow, it will give guys stability to get consistent sets.
It may be we have more than 8, but not sure if that works as well, maybe we might get 10 average 10 minutes/game. Hard to keep everyone happy, just want to see good defense, low turnovers. We get to that point the rest will take care of itself. Can't get here soon enough.

Sit tight guys just got some insider info - can’t get into it right now but if true our roster is about to look different next week. And not with an addition but yet another subtraction. Will share when/if I get the go ahead but it caught me completely off guard. Hoping the info is false but it’s never been false before from this source. Ugh.

This is the same guy who said Okoro was a lock. He seems to have contacts, but it's sure one way of gaining more views on his show. Tate is the one who would have the inside.:hand:
He might be giving a transfer name, guess he holds the key in abit.

No no no no ... ×1000 times no.
There goes any chance of scraping together a magical run to the tournament. Three schollies unfilled, no OV's left, and no guarantee players like Dima Zdor will want to sign on...with or without an OV. What about building any momentum on the court, so that we can take the next step in recruiting with the '19 players.

Hope I'm wrong, but I'm thinking Ebo.
