How is Gentry getting pushed out? He's literally our starting CB right now.
He needs to stay healthy, but it's not like he's sitting out with an earache or a charlie horse.
Stop believing everything you read. The fact that you two are literally posting different ideas here shows that NOBODY really knows what is going on or why/how this is playing out. OUI is the biggest click-bate site around.
Assuming he's the goods (coaches should know from practice), what's the going rate for an All-SEC caliber DT in the Portal?
It's way more than what Stone made last season.
Heck, Williams likely got over $1M to come here, and I think Stone has the potential to be better.
Anybody valuing Stone based on last year's production is kidding themselves.
The kid has all of the tools to dominate at this level, and at times last year, did just that. Every report I saw out of Spring practice was that he had taken a massive leap forward and was going to be a problem. You...
I think we have enough shooters.
Pack, Brown, Jones, Dayton, and even Nwankwo are all good shooters. We need a little size and defense with Pack, Brown, and Dayton all being smaller, and not great defenders (my opinion).
Pack can be super impactful if he can return to shooting 40%+ from three. Still a good a player in the high 30's, but could be special in the 40's like he was the first three years of his career.
I think we're good on shooting.
Need another bigger guard that can defend. Offense doesn't have to be great, but would prefer somebody that isn't terrible at that end of the court. Campbell is perfect, other than his size. Maybe we just grab him and deal with the fact that we will be...
Dude, it's just my opinion.
Blair is at a likely crowded position. He played against TERRIBLE competition. He's been splitting his time between two sports (I know he isn't the only guy to do this, but still).
I just don't see it with him.
Same for Holst. Tall, lanky, foreign big that has...
Based on history and having watched the sport for multiple decades.
Fans do this all the time, hype kids up and expect too much too soon. You also have to look at where he plays and the competition for minutes at that spot.
Have you watched any extended video of him?
He is VERY limited if he doesn't have a relatively wide open dunk or easy layup. VERY limited.
Not saying he doesn't have the potential to be really good, but we've recruited higher ranked kids that couldn't contribute early. SEC basketball isn't...
Just a guy that can move and understands positioning and footwork would be a big help. Our bigs, AT TIMES, look so unathletic and uncoordinated next to some of those guys you are talking about.
I think replacing Hump would help there too. I'm not a fan of him as a coach.
