He averaged 7 and 4 for his career and wasn’t known for his defense and work ethic, don’t think he would have helped much imo
Don’t disagree, but would rephrase slightly. I think if Green plays another year or college basketball there is a good probability it’s in Ames. Think you’re right about Garcia. If he has his eyes set on the pros I don’t know why you’d leave Chapel Hill for Ames
Gessell was south Sioux City, Nebraska. He was from right across the river from Sioux City. If t-Rex is Woodbury he played at Sioux City East I believe. Only reason I remember I was
Living in Sioux City when they were coming up.
Garcia left UNC to be closer to home (Minnesota) to help with a sick relative. The reason I bring him up is because if he tests the NBA waters and doesn’t like his feedback (he only played 12 games for UNC this last year as a sophomore), I could see him going somewhere for one more year. Also, he played HS ball with Bob Jones and they’re good friends.
Garcia could apply for a hardship waiver due to the relative health condition making UofM/Wisc/ISU as favorites. Lot of speculation there but if Garcia would want to play College next year ISU would have a good advantage over a # of schools (UNC return would be an option too). Let's see him enter the portal first though.
Pretty sure they did away with the hardship waiver with the new changes allowing kids to transfer one time without sitting out. I think you can try to get an extra year at the end of your eligibility because of hardship but he wouldn't get one and be able to play right away.
I had to go back and check, because I could've sworn Solo was just as inept at rebounding the last couple years (post-injury). Sure enough, he did average damn near 5 reb/game last year (4.8)
Portal has been on fire today. Ton of mid major guys going in just this morning. Nobody we should be pursuing but it feels like it's finally time to be on watch
We absolutely could have used Young this year. Guy was not a star, but we needed all the bodies we could get. It’s that simple.
I assume ISU could help Garcia with an appeal. Grill got his appeal granted to play this year for instance. I assume having a sick relative and needing to be close to them would be as good of a case as Caleb had.
Saw him play a couple of times this year. He is not a guy we want, unless we can just tell him to go sit in the corner and catch and shoot. Not very skilled and plays out of control at times. So basically, he's Grill. He actually remind me a little of Bohannon, in terms of streakiness. I watched a game where he went 0-fer from 3, and in the other one he was 6-10.
He was a 4 stay top 60 player on 247 and I'm pretty sure Rivals had him either as a 5 star or borderline. Though Prohm did get in on him early.
Talen Horton-Tucker, Los Angeles Lakers, Shooting Guard

Prohm also got lucky on THT with the Illinois situation.
with UNI going to the NIT we're gonna have to wait a couple more weeks before the Green thing is official.
Never said we couldn’t have used him - but I don’t think he would have altered outcomes much
