2023-24 Portal Options

[Sherman20]

There’s still a lot of really good players, particularly at forward, still available in the portal. Among the top 15, Olivier Nkamhoua, Simas Lukosius and Hakim Hart. Or as center options, Daniel Batcho of Texas Tech or Graham Ike of Wyoming.

Graham Ike looks like the real deal. Looks like he had to redshirt and might have 2 years of eligibility left. Was his conference's POY it what was maybe his sophomore year. Put up great numbers and had a game with something like 38 points. Will be interesting to see how much interest he generates. Batcho is not bad and probably would be a potential contributor but Ike looks like he would be a great pick up...

Think its expected that Graham Ike is going to end up at Gonzaga and Hakim Hart to Nova.

Wonder how Justin Moore feels about Nova getting Hakim Hart? Aren’t both of them shooting guards? Is Arcidiacono going to be their PG again or is Moore going to switch to pg? I thought that position was a need for them last year.

Big get for them. Glad to see he isn't going anywhere we have to deal with him.

Funny because it’s true.

And we snagged a bottom one that is much more like the top two lines.

"Collins is a painfully thin and bouncy hybrid four-man with long arms. He is quick off the floor as an explosive leaper and is very mobile with good hands" - from two-four-seven

Right up our alley, lol.
Response tweet (no idea who this is, but it was funny there is one response and this is it):


ETA: Cal gotta clear roster space for Dickskin Dickinson.

Benny/Maliq at the 4. Don’t think Collins fits here, at least PT wise.

Red has said he wants to add a guard and C.

Hoping Lance Ware hits the portal too because he’d slide right into that starting C position. He’s a northeast kid too, I like to think we’d have a good shot.

The UK purge is ramping up. This is another second transfer non grad.

Pretty sure he won't be heading back to play for Fran at Iowa at least.

This was one of the most painfully obvious portal decisions of the cycle

Except perhaps in Maui.

Remember folks, the grass is not always greener...

From the 2022 transfer portal class:

• Only 68% ended up enrolled at another school.
• Of the transfers that were on scholarship at their previous school, only 71% got aid at their new school.
• Over 500 D1 basketball players in the portal never found another home.

Downright scary to strike out at this if you are a player.

What is Lance Ware working on a postdoc or something?

I swear that name's been floating around for a decade.

So…

Is Cisse going to need a waiver? He’s already transferred once!

Most likely unless he will graduate in 3 yrs.
