You might need someone who wants to play for Syracuse.If we have 12m I don’t see what the hold up is. Also no announcement of a GM?

Not at all. But you have to keep the right players.If you’re implying teams attempting to keep a solid core and build around them is a bad thing you are sorely mistaken.
Both PG, Wing and CenterWe need to hit a hr on either pt or center. The one that isn't the hr has to be pretty good too. If we can do that, we can have a good team with the pieces we currently have. We have top figure on Anthong and White makinga jump. If they don't, we are hurt. Doty has to be that guy that we all love doing all of the little things. And 3M has to be a player.

radio silenceAny rumblings around some of the names here you have heard anything on?

Interestingradio silence
Kentucky On3 reporter mentioning we are still involved with Alex Wilkins.
MCW already said he wasn’t coming hereTo a degree I’m somewhat glad. The euro kid came out of nowhere. No news on Wilkinson leaking out despite the MCW connection ..
They are trying to fill 3 teams lol.Kentucky is on every single top 500 recruit.
They are trying to fill 3 teams lol.
The UK team that is worth more than Louisville, the JV team and then the team of guys they just don’t want to play anywhere else…
You won’t get all 3….Wilkins and Dual would be a very solid combo at PG. Just hope there is cash to add a high quality center and a wing scorer. I could get on board with that.
You won’t get all 3….
If we get Wilkins I don’t think we add another perimeter scorer.
PG: Wilkins/Dual/depth piece
SG: Doty/Dual/Kiyan
SF: MMM/Kiyan
The main priority would be a big.
Big question for me is MMM, both monetarily and readiness to contribute. Said this on another thread, but he could be anywhere from All-ACC Frosh to a developmental piece and I wouldn’t be surprised.You won’t get all 3….

Givony compared to MMM to a HS McDonald’s all-American…. Remember this is a guy our fan base had never heard of but Givony had for months….Agreed.
I am excited about landing 3M, but his readiness level to contribute this year is the unknown.
Also, it doesn't sounds like he is much of a rebounder, so he is probably going to need to be a 2. But it sounds like he isn't much of a defender, so that might be a challenge.
Also, Doty is a 2.
Ditto Kiyan.
Maybe we play full court defense, and positions will prove to be somewhat irrelevant in GMac's / Brunt's defensive system. Time will tell.
I'm assuming they go with a three-guard lineup. Dual at PG, Doty at one of the wing positions, and ???. White at 4, player to be named later at the 5.
There are two Germans in the portal that are worth considering. Reibe and FruGivony compared to MMM to a HS McDonald’s all-American…. Remember this is a guy our fan base had never heard of but Givony had for months….
We don’t know if he will contribute right away but GMac may feel he’s ready and may been banking on that. It sounds like several high major programs were on him. This isn’t like Fennell.
Especially with Tobiason committed, I just don’t see how Wilkins fits anymore. I still think we get a backup PG but I assume Dual will start. Some Combo of Doty/Tobiason/Kiyan/MMM at the 2/3. If you add Wilkins he instantly starts at PG and just clogs the PT even more Dual going to the bench.
Even if MMM isn’t ready … I think GMac has his group of guards and wings. Moesech being the main backup for Dual worries me - maybe we get another experienced depth piece. Maybe gmac thinks Doty can handle some PG? Idk …
4 is hopefully just Sadiq/Folefac
Our final bag $$$ needs to go a 5.
We probably didn’t land the PG GMac wanted but he just got here.
Fru is getting big money offers from the likes of Indiana and a few others.There are two Germans in the portal that are worth considering. Reibe and Fru
I think they have a real shot if they poney up like you said. A lot of schools that have interest in him can’t guarantee him a starting spot like we could…If we have the money to pay… we have a nice chance. If we don’t… hello blue blood.
