I don't see us taking Zens to be completely honest
DId i miss someone? Im aware 15 is our limit . I listed 14 so if Zens and Blackwell commit to go with those i listed thats 16. At least 1 would need to leave

Why have him visit if not? It seems that someone else is leaving is more likely. Why have him visit at all just a few days ago if you dont want him?
Yep Bryson Tiller just committed.

Hope I'm wrong but Ty and Jakstys not being there last night seems indicative that they're exploring other options.
Oh and we also keep forgetting Nasir Rankin. It's 15 roster spots, doesn't matter whether or where the scholarship comes from.

Coach Underwood said Jakstys wasn't there because he had a test last night. He never addressed Ty not being there though.
Perhaps laying groundwork for a future transfer possibility.
Doesn’t bode well for his return then
I dont there is much playing time available for either next season. I could see Jaktys as more likely to stay to develop and he can graduate early to pursue a transfer early with likely 3 years left! However, i dont know how many hours he has already but most schools only let you transfer 60. I think Jaktys is here until he gets his degree if he went to summer school he should be close to a degree in a year and would waste a lot of hours by transfering now but if he is around 60 hours he may bolt too. I dont know but it seems likely someone else leaves.
I would say Utah St. for 1 year, then portal?
A lot of mizzery fans think this is the do or die year for gates
Brad is not interested in pivoting …
Tend to agree here, with how tapped in the #insiders are right now I feel like they would have mentioned something by now if he was
Indy alluded to him to being ready for Big Ten play at the moment

A freshman or 2 could redshirt. It was mentioned a few weeks ago L Davis could be likely to RS.

Prepared to do what it takes to close the deal?
Since everyone’s curious about where things stand …
Obviously would like to add Blackwell …
Ty not being there last night is interesting … Does he have the role he wants ? Brad definitely made it clear he’s got a spot if he wants it … I could see Lee sliding into that role as the 10th guy …
Could also see us adding a Misko special big guy just so we’ve got a little more depth there … Pepperdine kid is an option but other top secret options as well …
Blackwell
Vaaks
Andrej
Mirk
Tomi
Bench:
Q Coleman
Z
Jake
Morillo
Ty
Deep Bench:
B Lee
Jakstys
Ethan Brown (could redshirt)
Landon Davis (could redshirt)
Fagbemi

You're still on the roster if you redshirt.
We can only have 15 players, including walkons and Rankin. Brad can count.
Mingo’s are not going to be an option for us …
We had some conversations to get an idea of the financial piece and figure out where they were at in the process in case of emergency … And to be a little more detailed, us getting “involved” helped raise the price a little bit which only tightens Orlando’s relationship with those connections … Never hurts …

RS still count against your number of 15.
It seems someones going to leave and must BU know. Im just curious as to who.
