Yes it would and it’s physically not possible lol

Obviously not, it was a joke based on the 21’ high jump comment/error

Not really disagreeing with this but I found it funny you had Gilbert on all lists except last 4 minutes. A guy with size, shooting ability and good defense seems like a good guy to have in the last 4 mins.

The other guard spot was the hardest for me to pick.. I knew I wanted Lipsey out there because he is an incredible rebounder, excellent defender and he's experienced in the Big 12. I want Milan and Omaha on the floor as they are by far the most talented. Omaha can guard 1-5 and Milan may be the most talented scorer on the roster. A frontcourt of Milan and Omaha with 3 guards could get abused on the glass, so I went with Tre King to provide great rebounding. Tre also has the ability to stretch, create, and can guard a center at nearly 240#..

A lineup of Lipsey, Omaha, Milan, and Tre needs shooting and dribbling more than anything else, so I put PAV in the lineup as IMO, he is the best combo of shooter and passer on the roster. Gilbert was nearly 1 to 1 on A/TO where Pav was 1.5 to 1

No problem, my wife and kids think I always sound sarcastic so I’m used to sarcasm being obvious. Harder to read sarcasm on a message board without the pirate emoji lol

I would be curious to know the average number of visits a transfer takes. Seems like a lot visit a school (probably knowing it's the most likely) and then commit shortly after the visit. Obviously not 100%, but I'd be curious how common that scenario is.

This year it's probable less than 1.5. on average. Most commit after their first visit. Becoming pretty rare to take more than two.

Now you're makin' stuff up.

Haha, I'm just kidding. I like your detail!

That's really an irrelevant statement. Seven new players and no guarantee he even starts over Williams.

I’d be pretty surprised if Williams is good to go (full go) before mid December

Agree, or at the least, he will not yet be 100% (which is essentially what you just said), but will be playing. He just won't be playing yet to his full level, or as many minutes as he or we might like. It will take year two, post injury and surgical repair, for him to possibly get back to 100%. The chances are greater for that to happen, to have a great recovery result, in year 2. No guarantee, though. A torn or avulsed heel cord is no joke, a very tough injury.

I will be rooting for him, for sure, to eventually get there.

Isn't this premium info?

As is now the norm, CW didn’t post this on his own free site. Just on Twitter, and on Premium of course.

I'm interested to see how Tamin's offensive game takes the next step with shooters and other play making threats around him. I think he will be better and because of that, will be tough to take off the floor (again). His defense and rebounding from his position, with his playmaking ability on offense, makes him such a factor out there.

Not sure if this counts, but someone in our conference dunked from the 3pt line

The limit, as of now, appears to be about the free throw line, to a few inches farther, at the most.

I would require being a little (lot) closer... and... a trampoline, and a... and a...

Not gonna lie, did not expect this

Assume no sure thing with this week's visitor...still reach out, right?

Yes. You're right. Still need to consider your plan B, C, and D, on your last and thrid transfer. Have to be prepared. That's what a good coach should do.

Since the world record for the high jump WAS just over 8 feet that is really impressive. I assume they meant long jump.

FIFY . . . since you know Tamin jumped 21 feet

For those on Instagram, visit the page @coachbake10.. He is working out new Cyclone Keshon Gilbert in the stories. Looks like A LOT of shooting and off-ball drills

 

[cyfan92]

Three schollies will probably go to:
Keshon Gilbert from UNLV
Jackson Paveletzke from Wofford
Curtis Jones from Buffalo

Terrible weather weekend for Curtis, thankful he's from MSP and living in Buffalo, NY, so this is "normal"..

Are we expecting good news by Monday at noon? Sunday?

 

[JP4CY]

Fordham? Really?

 

[Aclone]

Fordham? Really?

Maybe he’s a big Yankees fan?
