There was a colossal fumble by one of our football players this year. He ended up really improving the remainder of the year. Clearly the Cyclone way.
Probably because we will play as many as 3 at a time, or run into weird injury stuff like we did 2 out of the last 3 years and find out it would be nice to have a little more guard depth in order to not lose ugly in the tournament.
Because they emphasize defense at UVA, same as at ISU, the most difficult part of the game to get players to buy into 100%? For reference, check Houston's team.
I didn't realize Josiah Harrington was such a highly rated recruit (#30 on 247).
They were 131st this year in total ADJDE playing against terrible teams.
They can emphasize it all they want but it doesn't mean they played it well. This isn't 2019 Virginia or the era Shayok came from.
It’s going to be tough to judge anything from last year’s Virginia because the interim coach was announced so late (October 18). For continuity Sanchez was playing a system that wasn’t really his, with guys he didn’t recruit, and an announcement on the same day that there would be a separate permanent head coaching search. It was not a normal year
Fizer as a true freshman averaged almost 15 points and 7 rebounds, in a sloggy Tim Floyd offense. That has to be our #1 performance by a true freshman. Other high-scoring frosh were in up-tempo Johnny Orr offenses.
Don Smith would have been if they allowed freshmen to play during his day.
Good chance that Harrington will end up being the best in-state recruit since Harrison Barnes.
Guess that is why his offer list right now includes teams like: Alabama, Kentucky, Kansas, Ole Miss, etc. etc. Get to know ball.
It’s a good thing 6’7 170 LaMelo Ball didn’t play in college. Not built for the grind of a 35 game college season against other teenagers
Does Omaha Biliew count? Too soon?
Maybe you meant “best” as in actual production on the court? If you meant “best” as in “highest ranked recruit”, Omaha was UP there.

I wonder if TJ and Co. would be interested in LeJuan Watts since we now have the connection to Mason Williams. I am sure he has a wide range of teams interested.
Somewhere along the line fans started acting like being skinny is bad and you have to be built like a cornerback. I mean Tyrese Haliburton was a skinny skinny dude in college. Diante Garrett was super skinny. Both NBA players. Being skinny does not mean they are not strong. Just means they don't have the ability like some of us to show muscle and build a frame. I have worked out with super skinny dudes who were strong as hell. Look at guys in the UFC like Max Holloway. Dude is a pencil but will snatch you up and mangle you.
Don't we have a current connection to both Washington State and Eastern Washington? Go get him TJ.
It's hard to think of Niang as a freshman because he was so smart already as a freshman and because "old man game".
