I did.Maybe go look at the list that post was in response to and you’ll see why they were mocked.
In this day and age, I would be shocked if he’s not closer to being correct than Cyclone fans want to believe right now.

He said half. We’ve had two people transfer out from his list and don’t have anyone yet to fill the starting four spot. Do you really think three more of these guys on the list transfer out?You got instantly mocked and attacked on a message board for this take.
Amazing what 24 hours can do.
Show me how this goes to six?You got instantly mocked and attacked on a message board for this take.

Hamilton Fish -Republican Congressman from NY who worked closely with the Nazis in the leadup to WWII to undermine our democracy. Should have been imprisoned, but was never even tried for his many crimes.We lost Hamilton & Fish. I don't think anyone here will get this, but.....
Exactly, my list didn't even have Omaha or Pav on it. I had ? next to one's I thought might explore transferring. So yeah 2 is not half of 10He said half.

I think Jackson was ranked in the 70s before the portal really flooded.Espn just put out an article about the top 50 transfers. It has alot of guys I've never even heard of but no Jackson.
By his numbers and other offers I figured he'd be in the Top 10-20.
That’s not what I’m taking issue with. My problem is the people who are taking (and presenting) “we don’t know” as “no”, rather than “we’ll see”.Good god
Maybe he’s the rare 7’0” that’s ready for major minutes on a top-10 team as an 18 year old. Maybe not
But there’s no reason to try and make sure we don’t need that answer to be “yes”
According to ON3 on 2021 467 entered transfer portal, 430 found a home, 92%. In 2022 869 entered, 628 found home, 72%. In 2024. 1120 entered, 546 found a home, 45%. Grass is definitely not greener for most last yesr.
This guys a real jerk!We lost Hamilton & Fish. I don't think anyone here will get this, but.....
Yeah, I love his game and selfishly would have loved to see him stay, but it’s probably a good decision by him. He’s too good to not play, and there won’t be room for him to get a ton more minutes. He could be great at a mid-major program. I’ll be rooting for him (unless we’re playing him of course).Pav could be a great scorer at the G5 level
I'm "chuckling" because I see this in other posts and on other fan forums that "if this guy improves, and we get this player, and, and, and . . ."---isn't that the same mind set of every fan base? Not that we will or will not be a final four team. I won't argue that this MAY be our best opportunity, but it will also be for a multitude of teams and so many stars have to align. Didn't Alabama replace it's top seven? Would they have been as successful if they only had to replace one or two? No way to quantify things so we'll never know. My reference to the blue bloods wasn't to assess the fans disappointment of not reaching the sweet sixteen but rather that injuries impeded their advancement and we are not immune to that happening. My original post was not intended to pee in anyone's cheerios but to relish how far we've grown as a program and not view it as a failed season if we don't win the natty.“All this speculation of us being a final four team next year makes me chuckle. Is it possible? Yes, anything is possible”
No one is meaning we’re Final Four locks. You’re chuckling because you misconstrued- the classic CF preemptive meltdown over possible normal fan disappointment.
It’s more than “anything is possible”. It’s one of the best opportunities in program history.
“A sweet sixteen is another successful season and anything less will seem a disappointment and anything more will be gravy. Just too much to overcome in a one-off tourney. Ask KU, UK, Houston, etc.”
UK, KU, and Houston fans are absolutely disappointed in a Sweet 16 season this year.
Mid-major would be the obvious choice since Paveletzke had success at Wofford.Yeah, I love his game and selfishly would have loved to see him stay, but it’s probably a good decision by him.

Nebraska is a good fit for Paveletzke. He can replace Tominaga.Mid-major would be the obvious choice since Paveletzke had success at Wofford.
But Paveletzke might have a bigger impact at a P5 school which runs more motion/screens. He didn't seem like a good fit for a team that runs a lot of PnR or relies on ball handlers to create offense by dribble penetration.
He was 52 on 247 when it was first announced we got him. Now that more guys have entered:I think Jackson was ranked in the 70s before the portal really flooded.
