Is the current plan to have Boswell run point?

I like the current lineup of guys we’re trying to add, but color me concerned if Boswell is supposed to be the alpha PG.

Maybe Sarr can be the on ball guy at times? I’d like to see another PG added to the mix, preferably starter level, but I understand that’s a tall task.

Sellers off the bench would be good. Sellers as a starter or someone giving 25 minutes give me indigestion based on his shooting data in P4. If Boswell doesn't see a big bounce back, playing him and Sellers together would be instant offensive death.

7’ 3” UCLA center Aday Mara just hit the transfer portal. This is major loss for Mick Cronin and UCLA they had big plans for him. I like him better than Big Z

My favorite thing we do every year is project out lineups based on guys available as of the first week or two of the offseason.

There are names nowhere near anyone's radars yet that will be available in the coming weeks/NBA draft dropouts that work is already being done on. We sit well with multiple current targets, but staff has much more in the pipeline. Stay tuned.

I know he was a bit of an outlier due to his circumstances, but Will Riley committed on June 23 last year.

Considering Plummer was a very good shooter...

Plummer shot 40% across three seasons of P4 competition. Sellers has played one season and shot 29%. You have to believe that his Ball State performances is more indicative of future performance and UCF was just asking him to do too much, too soon.

Clearly at least one too many, probably two.

Dix, Sarr, Sellers and really Sandfort are all kind of the same role.

We've been through this before, the bidding will go up and we'll see if we can snag one of them.

For me we should go nuts for Sarr if at all possible, for the sake of him individually and the broader goal of becoming the go-to Europe-to-NBA pipeline school.
