Will be interesting to see if the recruiting pitch the staff gives to potential transfers at the 5 involves competing for starting minutes with Dainja, and if so how it affects the quality of transfer we get at the 5.It is a bit presumptive to think that all you need is wing span to replace Kofi. There certainly a lot more to Kofis physical presence in the lane than his wing span. Especially when we have not even see Dain play. I am optimistic too but a realist as well. I still hope we can add a big man in the portal with not just length but other skill sets too. I am very curious to see who we look at and will add. I certainly expect to add a proven 5 in the portal given the programs improvement and the minutes available with Kofi leaving.
yesAre we ever going to actually land a transfer??
The presence of Kofi in the lane was a good and bad thing tbh. His presence clogged up driving lanes for us and our opponents. And a 5 out team caused him trouble. 5 out works when you have 5 shooters who can also take their man off the dribble. Because the basket isn't guarded. It's why Golden State is so rediculious. 4 shooter/slashers and a world class high post passer. It's the present state of basketball. You can only overcome it with size of you get so many offensive rebounds the lack of size becomes a negative. Or the 5 out team shoots poorly.It is a bit presumptive to think that all you need is wing span to replace Kofi. There certainly a lot more to Kofis physical presence in the lane than his wing span.

Whoooaaa... What was all this one in a million talk?
noAre we ever going to actually land a transfer??
Why would we!?
Our staff isn’t ready for big boy recruiting. /sWhy would we!?
Correct. Don't even know why we spent so much time looking at 5 stars this weekend in Indy.Our staff isn’t ready for big boy recruiting. /s
Of course not....we want our freshman to play this year....Are we ever going to actually land a transfer??
BU and Co. continue to get chewed up and spit out in this year's portal... Please come back, Jacob Grandison....
No. And yes, and there will be more.I think that there is a good chance that Hutch and Grandy will be back. Are there better team players available than them in the portal right now?
Good, then we can let it go with this guy and not see the 10 questions about him per day. Our coaches don't want him. There's a reason for that and I trust their assessment over anyone on this thread. They're not only building based on talent (and we have it) but also on culture and they will consider both. Clearly, there is something there that they don't think will fit.

I agree. I expect more this week. I haven't checked to see who has pulled out if the draft but some of those that did are likely to enter the portal this week before the May 1st deadline. It's hard to be patient but we should see some new names soon. I know that's what I'm very curious to see.No. And yes, and there will be more.
Unfortunate that he's going to follow in Mark Smith's footsteps then.Hate mizzou. But will always root for Adam. Won us a big ten title. Great kid. Sometimes things don’t work out.
I guess complacency is bliss for you, Joel... tell me I'm wrong and I'll change my opinion. LolJFC
grab a binkie
This is entertaining. People panic so easy. Also, such short memory. Remember just a few years ago, talking pre Brad Underwood, where we couldn't close even 4 stars? We've come a long way folks.BU and Co. continue to get chewed up and spit out in this year's portal... Please come back, Jacob Grandison....
Well you would be wrong soooooo idk what to tell youI guess complacency is bliss for you, Joel... tell me I'm wrong and I'll change my opinion. Lol
