I just meant I wish CAM would look at Indy, especially when he strikes out nationally. I was just using Pack as an example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13th&Jackson Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 12 hours ago, Lurker said: I see Nijel Pack is ready to come back after getting covid. Local Indy kid that's starting for KSU as a freshman. 2.6/1 assist to turnover ratio in his 12 games. Also averaging 32 mpg. Shooting isn't bad other than his FT's. I know IU brought in Lander in this class, I just don't see why CAM can't bring in a local PG after striking out nationally. I know he's small and his rank (120) doesn't impress but almost anything would be better than running with RP and AD all the time. Don't really get the question. KL was the 6th ranked PG in the 2020 class. Pack was ranked 22nd (coming out of HS, he was listed at 5'10, 165). Mike Saunders, from Indy, was ranked 38th. Pack is playing a lot for a really bad KS team and Saunders is playing about 10 min/game for a really bad Cinci team. There are no ranked PGs for 2021 or 2022 from IN, let alone Indy. Should CAM bring in an unranked Indy PG to sit behind Rob and KL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an entire thread with people frothing at the mouth for this to happen. I'm sure the kid is wonderful. I hope he blows up and becomes the next Tyler Herro. Reality is his best offer is Toledo or similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hippopotamo Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 I’m really hoping Parker Stewart can be that other ball handler next year. I think Stewart, Phinisee, Lander, and Franklin is a good group to roll with next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is kind of odd. I visit a Cincy Reds site often where there is a big contingent of 'Cats fans. Traffic on UK is almost non-existent. It is like they buried their heads in the sand sans the old school guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see if they take a step back next season after losing 4 of their rotation players next to graduation, 2 of which are likely their best players in Petty and Jones. Looks like they have the #9 ranked recruit coming in next season though. If Archie doesn't turn this thing around next season and Indiana makes a move, Alabama will probably give him enough of a raise to keep him. He is already making nearly 2.5 million and can compete at the top of the SEC with the level of talent he will be able to recruit with his playing style. Yep...UK did a better job second time around in sticking to shooters and not helping off on drives as much. UK isn’t very good but they do have good length. Shorter close outs with better length will make even great shooting suffer. Good adjustment by Cal but they still have no answer for the offensive end of the floor. They are as bad shooting as we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a pure point guard...probably won’t create for others but shouldn’t be any worse than Al is....(even if it isn’t saying much). I’ll be ready to see Lander start next year. I’m about sick of the Rob and Al show. Like watching really bad Reba reruns....just painful with an occassional good episode. (Clarification I think I’ve seen one or two episodes and have no clue if there ever was a good episode) I think the backcourt should be pretty decent next year but we will need help in the front court...especially if Trayce leaves.

Hope I'm wrong I can't see Baylor going through the big 12 undefeated. They still play at Texas, OU, WVU and KU. Surely, one of those teams will poke the Bear. You never know. I do agree, however, these Baylor and Gonzaga are way above the rest of the field. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
