Even I can say if we get Wells we have the chance to make it to the second weekend again for sure. I have been critical of some of the moves but I think Wells moves the needle quite a bit.Would be lucky to finish in the top half of the B1G. At most a bubble team.
Just because it seemed to happen quick to the public doesn't mean it was actually quick.
Username checks out.Who would we rather have Watkins or Wells?
Kind of the way I feel about it all...or getting there rapidly. Not a soul understands how soon we will need 20-30 million in NIL to compete if the current setup continues. It may not stop anywhere near there either as greed and irrational thinking have prevailed quickly in this environment.There seems to be a lot of out of work Division I head coaches on here that are offering their services to Brad to let him know what he should do, how he should spend NIL dollars, and if only they were involved could have closed on all potential prospects without fail. Keep all the good advice coming guys. He will listen eventually. I just wanted to thank you all so you don't stop offering all the great advice.
Watkins by a mile, but NBA GM's would also much rather have Watkins. Probable first rounder IMO.Who would we rather have Watkins or Wells?
Ladies and gents, this is entirely too much tuna.

It's fine taking a break, as I don't believe any of us are required to be here. Well, Dan, if the board is to remain civilized.This is exhausting
Watkins and it's...Who would we rather have Watkins or Wells?
Well, I’ve got good news for you. I’ll give you my extra unused input because…… well…….I am just one of many posters on here who's input doesn’t count……at least for much.
Wells would move us from 60th to 38th on Torvik. That's with zero production from Ivisic as he doesn't appear to be in his database yet.This team could win the big ten. Stop saying stupid stuff like this
Agree . . . Watkins would be a game changer, but Wells is more likely to come back to collegeWatkins by a mile, but NBA GM's would also much rather have Watkins. Probable first rounder IMO.
Wells is a better shooter but Watkins is better at everything else on the basketball floor.

Brad has assembled a good roster who can compete. What type of player is he looking for?Brad isn't just at the combine to see our guys
I can't help with NIL at that level, so I am instead planning to contribute to the cause by sending Coach U -- free of charge -- some baseline-out-of-bounds plays. They're from the golden age of hand written notes so I am going to have to digitize them first.Not a soul understands how soon we will need 20-30 million in NIL to compete if the current setup continues.
Wth? How is that even possible. LolAgree . . . Watkins would be a game changer, but Wells is more likely to come back to college
Wells is not helping himself in the athletic testing at the combine - his lane agility and shuttle run times were slower than Zach Edey for reference (yikes!) he did well in the shooting drills though
Watkins had a really slow shuttle run (one of the worst) but did well on lane agility and three quarter sprint, was not good on the vertical leaps though and did not do well in the shooting drills overall
Point being - neither one are athletic freaks that will jump up draft boards based on their athletic testing when the NBA teams run their analytic models, Watkins is more likely to get a first round grade based on what he did on the floor last year
People always talk about playing 10 deep. Do any P5 teams actually play 10 deep once conference play starts? The last team that I remember playing 10 deeps was Calipari's wave experiment. He very clearly said "Never again" after the season.Play a 10 deep, keep Jakstys and Jake in the limited minutes/redshirt role, leave 1 open. What's the problem with that?
Maybe, but only if a little mini-Underwood is coaching.Would be lucky to finish in the top half of the B1G. At most a bubble team.
