Definitely miss Norchad

Seven transfers....just crazy when you think about it.

 

[Gables Canes]

I think the only one from that list that could help this team is Omier.

Crazy how big of a bust AJ Casey is.

Of the transfers, I always thought Watson had upside that just somehow never translated here

I think the only one from that list that could help this team is Omier.

Crazy how big of a bust AJ Casey is.

He had no perimeter game, no mid-range game, no under-the-basket game. Hard to impress when you can't score from any level.

We can all appreciate this: "Joseph for the win. No good."

The most interesting part of the list is that the best player of the group is the kid from Florida.
Hopefully, that is the focus of the next coaching staff.
All of those Midwest kids that Bill Courtney recruited to Miami have struggled to make the transition to the high major level.
Early Timberlake also plays with Jak Robinson at Bryant, which means they were mid major kids and not high major kids.
Watson, Joseph, Poplar and Omier all averaging over 12 per game is interesting because with Cleveland, they would have been a good group.
The problem is obviously, no one wanted to play small ball anymore because Omier is playing the 4 at Baylor. I watched the Baylor/Kansas game yesterday.
Thank you @Trinton Breeze for posting this information.
