Any actual updates on his destination? Feels like it's been forever since he portaled his way out of ames
Tyrese Hunter Entering the Transfer Portal - NIL Speculation
- Thread starter cyfan92
- Start date
Sounds to me like the money offers didn't quite roll in. Still probably gets something eventually.
He already got the money lol. He signed with an agency.
What am I talking about?
First third of the season: 9/44 .205
Second third of season: 11/48 .229
Final third of season: 17/43 .395
First half of season: 13/63 .206
Second half of season: 24/72 .333
Take your pick. He improved throughout the season.
Right but don't you suppose the agency is waiting on offers to recoup some or they only get paid if he makes the league?
Also, it is possible that most teams left him alone because he was so bad first 2/3 of the season
There could be some factor of that, but I suspect that is overwhelmed by the fact that the last half of the season he was playing against some of the best defenses in the country in the Big 12 and LSU.
I don't think he's going to be a lights out shooter, but I think he'll be good enough that combined with his ability to get to the rim and defend, he's going to have a really good year.
The kid is super tough and competes like a MF. He's going to be damn good and it's a big loss.
But what about that 3 minute stretch against some team in some game where he went 0-2 from 3 and turned it over twice? He should just give up basketball!
And supposedly 50% the next year and 75% his senior year?
He did suck pretty bad against Wisconsin. I hate to say it, but he looked a little like a freshman playing the toughest position on the floor against a top 25 team in essentially a home game.
Can Tyrese be a good player with lots of potential that I wish we could've kept but can I also believe we can replace his production and then some or is that not allowed in this thread?
Where are all of your Hunter being a bad shooter posts during the season? Or did that only start after he left?
despite his percentage being less than ideal, there are plenty of players that I cringe every they take a three-point shot, knowing it had no chance. I don’t remember doing that once with Hunter.
I feel like it was mentioned by talking heads several times throughout the year that TH is a “situational shooter”. You don’t want him to NOT shoot, because the flow he’s in, the current situation of the game, and the overall disposition of the game matters to his shooting.
I mean have we seen this reported anywhere besides Pollard, no offense to Pollard but he has been known to exaggerate this kinda stuff.
I think his 3 Pt % is a bit skewed because a lot of those attempts were late in shot clock and the only option was to heave a rushed 3 pointer. That said I don't ever see him being a 40% 3 point shooter.
TH reminds me of slightly less talented Marcus Smart
There’s really no way for a reporter to confirm that. I seriously doubt Pollard says that publicly if he’s not sure it’s true. I suppose there’s a chance they got smart and backed out of the agreement.
