Can we wait until all addictions have been made before saying this is a bottom half of the B1G team? lol

The implication, to draw it out, is that we'd hire Xavier assistant Adam Cohen and bring in their guard/wing Desmond Claude, who has two years to play.
Claude was a fringe top 100 guy out of HS who emerged this year as a pretty inefficient volume scorer on a mediocre team. Not a strong outside shooter.
could throw Colemans year by year stat lines up there too...sophomores don’t improve….

It's the Mannie Jackson and Jerry Colangelo clause.
I see Chester is already doubling back to his recruits….
Bringing in one kid who was top 50 in his class and look really good for one who was top 60 and another who was top 30 but the sky is still falling for some of us.

Yeah, he shoots almost 80% from the line so hopefully on a better team he can be more efficient and get his 3pt% up since the stroke is there.
Again still all conjecture at this point anways lol

Excellence in writing and sentence structure. Kudos. Almost as solid as your assessment on Boswell.
/s
I gotta work on my keyboard skills. I am NO match for the Loyalty All-Stars. My alternative spellings and grammatically-challenged "prose" never reach the level of entertainment illustrated in the example above. It's depressing!
While his recruiting analysis is hot garbage, everyone deserves 1 pass for a rambling dictated (and potentially chemically influenced) bad take after midnight.

Seriously. The psyche of some of our fans is so annoying. John Groce’s tenure holds more weight to them than being consistently good for the last five years AND being consistently good for decades before that. They’re predisposed to be negative and pessimistic, and they’re CHOOSING this attitude even when past evidence (e.g., Underwood recruiting the portal well and not finishing low in the standings) goes against their schtick.
Again, at this point this fan base needs a desperate injection of cocky homers. We have the swagger of a program that’s coming off of 5 NITs, not an Elite Eight, several NCAAT appearances, consistently top 20 teams and 3 Big Ten banners.
I love the boards obsession with players being recruited over. It literally happens every year. Their job is to bring in as much talent and possible and win games. It’s the players job to earn playing time. Look at the football team, a grad transfer dt was brought in and he was being out played by younger players. Guys need to be willing to compete for pt

3.8/2.6 ratio is not great but it's understandable for a freshman.
Some rankings are garbage too..Cam Spencer at 114?

As long as we don’t pick up the “new money” arrogance of UConn fans.Seriously. The psyche of some of our fans is so annoying.

The only point they are making, in my humble O, is that maybe there should be a balance of getting proven talent that is perhaps at the end of their growth potential versus young unproven talent who are at the beginning of their growth potential (see Podz). Don't give up too soon. I think this staff gets that. I really, really do. Eventually someone will prove with data that there is greater revenue generated by winning with a team that has a greater average number of years spent playing with said team versus lower average (high turnover) years team. I really think that gets proven. Winning is extremely important (the most important), but it's not everything...
