Class of 2018 SF Louis King (NJ) to Oregon

[Cusesky8214]

UK just offered 2018 wing Keldon Johnson...wake up Louis

Yep UK offering Louis is getting less likely...cuse may end up in a good position here with him...i couldn't even imagine king, bazley and carey coming in together...have we ever had 3 guys like that coming in together for the same class?

 

[SUOrangeSU]

I think they would use King at sg as well

This is why you keep recruiting certain kids. You never know.

Not that I can remember. It puts a smile on my face just thinking about it.

Louis is like plan EPH for UK at the 2/3.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Is there a scenario where the class could be Bazley/Carey/King/big man/Buddy?

Seems like we'd need some unanticipated roster movement, but that would be a NASTY class.

Thorpe Graduates
Battle NBA
TT Moves on
We gain a schollie back from sanctions.
Buddy walks on

Totally doable...
Buddy = Walk on
Bazley = TT
Carey = Geno
King = Tyus
Carrigan or Roberts = Chukwu

Uh...

Uh...

Would be like hitting reset button, but we need to do it, imo...
5 or 6 player class is the target...

Chukwu doesn't have to leave to get 5 though. We can still take 5 with him on board with the schollie gain.

Maybe grad transfer for Chukwu if a "mystery recruit" emerges...

PC could move on, and we keep TT. We would be absolutely loaded. Though, TT seems doubtful.

Regardless, we will have room. Baze, Carey, King, Carrigan, and Buddy would be monstrous. Especially if Matt, OB, Marek, and Sid are all around. Unbelievable frontcourt. FH, HW, EH as well. Insane to think about.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Maybe this kid makes his decision pretty quick?

I'll take in the hunt. If he would jump on a UK offer then he should have no problem with the competition here. Especially since we will have minutes available at the 3. Wouldn't blame him for going to Oregon though.

Oregons really becoming a force with their Canadian connections and parlaying that with their recent success to recruit nationally

Definitely. Nike money, the area, and especially the women don't hurt either.

Maybe 2010 with Fab, Waiters, Fair

 

[Trueblue25]

Chukwu, Carrigan/Roberts

Thompson, Moyer, Bazely, Brissett, Marek

Howard, Washington, Carey, Buddy


Even without King, that's a very very very strong foundation and immediately dangerous roster.

Sidibe too

 

[reedny]

Sidibe too

So:
C - Chukwu, Sidibe and either Carrigan/Roberts
PF - TT; Moyer; Marek
SF - D-Baze; Brissett
SG - Washington; Buddy (Walk-on); Hughes
PG - Carey; Howard.

That's 12, if Buddy walks on. There's some uncertainty, as there is a potential for TT and one of Marek/Brissett to jump to pro ball. If that happens, we could be in position to add another player (a Battle-level SG IMO).

That's 11. We have 12 available in 2018-19. So if Buddy walks on we can add one more player -- (a Battle-level SG would be best IMO). There's some uncertainty, as there is a potential for TT and one of Marek/Brissett to jump to pro ball. But we still have one open schollie for 2018 as things stand now (assuming we get Carey and Buddy walks on).

Missing hughes

 

[reedny]

Missing hughes

Ok I'll correct. thx.

 

[SUOrangeSU]

FWIW..my buddy who is a UK insider..says that King (we all know this) is their backup plan. Pretty sure Johnson is going to commit to UK and they'll have some returning players next year so they wont do a HUGE reload like before
