Kdug Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 1 hour ago, ledies22 said: wouldnt hate that. They could coexist. T Perk 33% career, KC 32% fresh year in 3. Would like to have a bit more volume from the off guard. KC shot 35% in conference from 3. Seems like he might have had a slow start like Mgbako. He shot 4.3 3s per game which isn’t crazy low, especially considering his minutes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knew Dusty was hired before he chose K-State. Now if Dusty chose not to try to retain him that's another story...

HoosierBrit64 Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I have way too much time on my hands sitting in my home office finishing up my monthly billing. It’s like sitting on the toilet, way too much time to think. I keep seeing all these players that we’re in contact with, and I asked myself, how do we have more than 10 players next year if we don’t look to sign at least a couple of developmental guys? These portal players are looking for minutes, not mop-up minutes. Three high volume starting guards aren’t coming here at once from the portal. That’s just not realistic. Gallo is getting minutes. We have X minutes to give, and I suppose we have Ware minutes, but those aren’t going to a 6’2 guard. It seems to me that we must have a big from the portal maybe two, and two starter quality guards, then developmental guys willing to wait for minutes. I just don’t see the possibility of multiple guards coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t see the possibility of multiple guards coming. Just my two cent opinion. I think we have to be careful in the who we go for in this portal while keeping an eye on 25 class. We don't want to get a guy with 2-3 years eligibility (unless of course he's really frickin good which means he's going pro sooner) because that might sway the 25 kids (Haralson, Sisley,etc...). Delicate balance for sure but I'd be fine hammering the 1 year guys this year knowing full well what we could offer to 25 recruits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is one other reason I think we’ll have more than one open scholarship next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
