It's probably too early to rank Kane, Hogue, and Edozie... they've only played 2 games. Kane may end up being better than Clyburn, for all we know

Kinda early to judge Kane/Hogue/Edozie.

At this point, I would probably agree with the others besides Id flip Scotty and Will, only because Scotty played consistently for 3 years.

Forgot uncle Jake.

I think by the end of this season Kane may be ahead of Will just strictly on having beast mode games from season start to finish. I also think Hogue is undervalued on your list and will be in the #5 range.

Kane isn't afraid to take games over like Clyburn seemed to be. I could see Kane being very high on the list. I agree with Hogue probably finishing top 5 as well; he still has another year.

Way too early to tell with this year's crew. But if you simulate the season based on the last three games (exhibition included) my top 5 will be

1. Royce White
2. Will Clyburn
3. Chris Babb
4. Tyrus Mcthree (my personal favorite)
5. Deandre Kane

Kane may end up being very important as a leader of the team. He already seems to function in that role. Of course, he also looks 10 years older than everyone else.

Agree, I see him playing a similar role to Smart at OSU. Can take over if needed from a scoring standpoint but just does everything the team needs to win the game. There may be 3 or so games this year that he nearly single handedly wins.

Wow, when you put it that way, and then add Mckay and Nader for next year, the hype about Transfer U has a ton of truth behind it.

He reminds me very strongly of someone on a different team that I despised, especially he beard and the way he carries himself on the court. But I can't place who it is.

It's way too early to do this. Obviously I have pretty high hopes for Kane and Hogue.

He almost is. I am the same age as him and have been graduated for 3 years.

That list shows just how good the transfers have been. Has there been a single transfer bust in the Hoiberg era?

One could argue Anthony Booker, but I don't know that I would call him a bust. He still had a valuable role on the team

You were talking about DeAndre Kane right?

Oddly enough I have thought the same thing. So far the best I can come up with is a cross at least facially between Marcus Morris and Jacob Pullen.

Edit - More specifically the forehead, eyes and cheek bones of Pullen with the fuller face and larger head of Morris. I know it is weird I thought of it like that
